What is the obsession with former players?

Should have kept davies and burgess to accomodate manfredi and marshall. And signed Johnstone and Hall. And not bothered signing hastings,french or bateman. Or just signed everyone and broke salary cap then complained about that whilst still accusing our owner of not spending any money.

I think we will have some but not as much as many think.

Bateman & Field signed, neither will be on peanuts.

Havard, Hastings & French getting significant upgrades.

New contract for Tommy.

I do think we will have some money but it doesn’t naturally follow we have all the Burgess money say there waiting to spend.

Also you can have all the cap space in the world but if the right type of player isn’t available then it makes no odds.

You no rissen !!!

Said it before - French & Hastings staying was done in a very large part on the back of George Burgess leaving and utilising a lot of his 175k cap space on retaining those 2

Joe Burgess was known to be leaving in May/June last year, his wages would have been reallocated to other squad members, Bateman coming, Jai Field etc. etc

Wow - French and Hastings got huge payrises then if true.

We also had cap space from O'Loughlin, Greenwood, Flower and Wells.
