Played the last 2 weeks with the Dogs and now back in the Raiders team at the moment?

Who's he playing for next week?

I hate the 7 tackle into touch idea.
The game has already lost whatever it is supposed to in resembling Rugby League, and they want to do more.
Honestly, it would be easier for me now if the Sharks did get kicked out. I only watch the game because I have been emotionally invested in them for way too long.
That reminds me *cancel Kayo

I'm still scratching my skull on how Penrith can fit in Pangai Jnr under their cap. Have I missed something about top teams can cherry pick the best players from bottom teams in the last few rounds?? Talk about adding to a lopsided comp.

Yes, it was a hot topic months and months ago when they changed the cutoff to August or whenever it was

Yeah I understand that part. What I don't understand is how can he fit under the cap considering it has to reach a certain level spent at the start of the season. Did Penrith also let someone from their roster go? Hasn't the cap been reduced this year? It just makes a mockery of the player value system.

I would've thought you'd be the last to be having a go at this system
For this is how the Warriors stole Chad haha

Yeah, yeah but there can still be a bit left after meeting the cap floor. You don't have to spend the whole cap. I don't know for sure the percentage but it's there. There's a fine for not meeting the floor actually but that's a stroy for another day.

Anyway to make the point, if the floor was 95% of 9.02 mill that leave about a tick over $450k to spend. They'd be getting TPJ for way less than that. I reckon a lot of teams would have aimed to be at or just over/under the floor.

I don't know if I explained it right but it's close
