As much as I feel for Olam if he is medically retired it will wipe $600,000 per year off the Tigers salary cap.
If Klemmer goes too that puts us in a pretty good financial space.
Man oh man, we could have a top quality team next year.
I think we would have to spend that money this year.
Though not 100% sure of the rules regarding this?
There's bound to be someone who will become available.

I don’t know if I’d put much credence on that Zero Tackle story given the writers assertion that Olam and Douehi would be the tigers starting centres in the first round. Surely Faataape, who the author didn’t even mention when talking about Tigers centres depth, has played better than any other centre in the trials and had enough games under his belt in NRL to warrant a start in round one. The only drama I see having Faataape and Toa starting is that they are both predominately right side centres, but using that logic so is Doeuhi. Douehi played a handful of games at left centre last year but his whole career at 5/8 and centre has been on the right

So we are apparently freeing up quite a bit of cap space atm with Klemmer and Olam, now its in the papers that Spencer Leniu wants out of the Roosters, and we have just signed his 2 best mates. Hmmmm.
Yeah I saw that too.

Spencer would be an extraordinary signing

Semi-marquee? tick
Ex-smug? tick
Wants to be treated properly by fans? tick
Doesn’t want to play under a racial vilifier in turdesco? tick
Wants a shot at the finals? Tick.
Sick of Robbo saying “ it’s not good enough” tick

He would add the starch and kick we need, superb player.

Make the call Richo.

I don't know enough about either of them, who do you think?
Spencer coming from the Roosters and Pennies systems, would be good.
But Molo is a bit of a beast as well, I understand.
Put them in the bus and the one that crawls out first, gets the contract. Hahaha

Rumour online that Spencer is pissed with how they treated May, and that Roosters potentially looking at Molo as a replacement. If Roosters pick up Molo, that clears the path for Klemmer to Dragons.
Again, just online rumours.

The way things have been going for us lately I reckon we are every chance of signing Spencer Leniu unless something better falls into place.
