Wrong sport perhaps? He'd go down a hoot in Union.

To be fair though, if you got rid of Foster and Dixon who hardly feature, that would probably cover a [ivery[/i good player's wage.

That's what I'm hoping for really.

Dixon is still on his contract from when he wa jusr breaking into the team? I would imagine that would be fairly minimal, and I would hope that Foster's contract is not that much either. I can't see their combined contracts equalling anything more than a fairly bog standards playersd emands. Maybe they will cover Turner's contract.

I'd think Dixons contract added to Flannery's with a bit of Meli's may add up to the offer for Manu.

Shentons wage should cover the cost of Turner and then some.

Fosters wage cannot be accounted for as he has a contract until 2015 I think. So his wage is not up for grabs, unless he gets a better offer.

You think we've offered Manu the salary of two and a bit players (of whom Flannery and Meli at least will be on decent wedge)?

Can't see that, I'd say it's more likely Flannery plus a little extra. Don't forget, Flannery was an established NRL player when signed. They don't come cheap.

Flannery signed a new 1 year deal last season so I'd imagine he will have took a big cut in wages.

I think shentons is the one we are saving a massive wedge on when he goes.

Ah, forgot about the extension.

Even so, to suggest Manu will be getting the wage of Flannery, Dixon and some of Meli seems a tad exaggerated to me.

I agree

In all honesty, providing that Broughton or Williams don't go elsewhere, I cant see Foster getting in at Salford.

Gosh that is an insult.

I'm assuming Dixon is not on alot. Flannery plus not alot, may need a top up. It's all speculations as I've not idea what anyone bar Shenton would have been on.

Foster needs to play well in the U20s. If there is a player playing better i.e. Swift then the other player should be next in line instead, otherwise what is the point in having second team games. Makinson got dropped when Rush came in and played his way back into the team.

Also Foster is actually a centre, maybe he should be playing in the centres in the second team? He can then fight it out with Wheeler, Jones and Turner for a centre spot next year.

A new coach is a new start when Brown gets sacked from the Giants in a few weeks Foster will get a fresh start. He is not done yet.

He was on Twitter last night saying he isn't going anywhere, just working hard and waiting for his chance.
