After tax that will be 500k. Add in the moving of his life etc. If his manager hasn't explained that to him, and if the Sharks can't compete with that, well I'd say our cap is more f**ked than what is being told.

true... price of living though has to be cheaper? and a single boi surely wouldn’t have much to ship over.

but yeah, the cap is a real mess.

Boogs and Townsend went to the warriors and ended up coming back.

Who knows we may see him back one day.

Haven't we got some decent young prop prospects anyway? Might give Royce Hunt or Daniel Vasquez an opportunity.
We should have a crack at Herman Ese'ese is off contract at Knights.

Best of luck to him. Be great for him to stay but can’t blame him for taking the cash.
Doubt he would return due to age. At least he got some glory for us via the Jets - which is a small silver lining

Our top tax rate is only 33% here mate. We have been after a young gun to lead our pack for years now, the club clearly thinks he can do it. $1 million over 3 years, I've heard a lot worse apparent "contract offers" from the Warriors.

If he comes over and cements himself as a starting prop, $333k a year is a deal. Him, Katoa and Murdoch-Masila will finally add some size and punch back to our forward pack..

We’ve got another one for you, if you need some more help - his name is Chad Townsend.

Also, if you need a backup fullback - we can spare Matty Moylan...

Yeah im pretty bummed about this one.
He would have been good for us off field too. Certainly not a shy bloke in front of a camera.

It's most frustrating that we put all the work in to rehab him and two games in he ups and signs with someone else. I get he's after a pay day and being a later bloomer he wants to play catch up a bit.

I think a one year decent extension with us and then back himself to get a bigger contract would have been a good plan.
