Only problem with us signing all these players where is the money coming from? Pearson already stated we will have to cut back. All well and good saying yea we will have these highly contracted players. What about giving Litten etc a chance?

I still think we'll spend up to cap next season.

Alot of out top earners are OOC this season.

As an example we should still be able to shuffle things around:
In: Trueman, French, Mellor, QCup/NSWCup hooker
Out: Reynolds, Shaul, Houghton, JJ

Signing an exciting fast full back like French would put a couple of thousand on the gate.

Disagree. I've heard that from next season the starting number will be cut to twelve as a money saving solution as a result of the economic crises.

Ok smarty pants I've missed out Savelio but as strong as that twelve is it would be unfair on other teams to field thirteen.
