Holmes is still an option.. Holmes + <pick a forward> and were still good.. but fmd these players are making us work for every single signing.... I dont think were nearly as bad a destination as we are being treated.. fringe Top8 side on the way up with a proven coach who just needs a few signings.. weve come a long way in that last 12 months.. again though.. we need names on a page.. maybe then we will be taken more seriously.

Buzz on 360 said

Holmes and his manager approached the Roosters a month ago and stated that he was keen to move back to Sydney and the Roosters werent interested

Flanno heard about this and met with him and the club have offered him 3 yrs 850 000 per year

Now Holmes has decided he wants to stay but the cowboys still want to move him on

so they sounds to me that the bloke doesn’t wanna play for St George you can rule him out now

We are not an appealing option for anyone

Cook only signed cause his only other option was Huddersfield lmao
Thought you said today that Holmes was 99% ?

Just wait till Perth Bears and the other two new teams come into the NRL. Above average NRL players will either move to these new teams for $1.2M a year or they will move to the top 3-4 teams for much lower amounts to try and win a title. Such players will avoid teams like the Dragons unless we match the $1.2M and if we do that we are toast.
The current salary cap is not working.
The NRL & the NRL players association must ensure clubs can pay anything they want to an available player but must debit their salary cap by minimum 85% - 90% of the highest registered bid for that player.
