The NRL minimum is still pretty high when comparing to SL and can only see that gap widening. With such a massive disparity in money between NRL & SL and the cap value in SL, teams here are having to use up more and more cap to bring in quality quota players, which is no doubt why the marquee rule was brought in, then extended to 2 players and will see this extended to 3 players in 2024.
Hopefully IMG will come good and we will see a greater interest in the sport generated to bring in much needed income to the sport.
Mclean certainly seems a decent player, though he'll be 33 next season which could be an issue.
McLean is good, every time I have seen him he looks very composed and doesn't cough up many errors, with a decent offload to his game.
Woods is done, even at SL level he is nothing different to players we have released, James Tamau is also a player I'd leave alone, he is definitely well past his sell by and wouldn't represent good value , for me anyway.
Just intrigued about the half back situation, I cannot for the life of me see Lewis leaving Rovers, he is their talisman and looks totally invested in them, obviously not forgetting he was a Hull fan, which I don't think would have much bearing on his future. Be good if he did a Cooke , resigned and then cam over, but he won't do that. Rovers are a more attractive proposition for would be signings, than us, currently.
