I think I know which winger I'd have offered a 3 year deal to.
If you've spent up to the cap, you must have some exceptional players.
But sometimes how much you pay players, doesn't necessarily make them any better than the players at another club not up to the cap.

If you had the space would you have him at Leeds?

Was Caton Brown a free agent when we offered Luke Briscoe a deal? No so pointless comparing the two as if it was a 50/50 decision on who to sign.

Well, 12 of our top 20 players have won GF winners rings, so they’ve earned better money even if last year didn’t go well. Plain and simple if you’re part of a team that helps your club win trophies it will be reflected in your wage. The only SL GF winner you have in your squad is BJB and he won that with Leeds.

Not now no because we don’t need a winger as much as we need a prop.

I get that, I was just wondering putting aside things like where you'd strengthen first etc, would you have him starting on your wing this season?

I don't know what's happened at Toronto but he's far too good not to be playing at the highest level and if money was no concern I'd love him back here. When Tom was injured for example there was hardly any drop in skill and finishing ability.

You could have offered him a deal when it was apparent that he was leaving us?
I was always under the impression that teams like Wakey had to pay more to a player in wages to make the move more appealing?
Leeds players were used to making up their salaries from incentive bonuses?
As for props, you've got Crosby, Mullally, Singleton, Cuthbertson, isn't Peteru a prop and there's Jones-buchanan at a push.

I dunno which is worse.
Not being able to afford to spend the cap, yet still fielding a half decent team
Or spending the lot and producing garbage.

....errr

Garbage like winning 2 of the last 4 Grand Finals? Because over half our top 20 have helped us do that.

Which would you honestly take
- GF winners, 9th, GF winners, 9th
Or
- 12th, 8th, 5th, 5th

Would you take 9th spot in 2020 if it meant being the Champions in 2019, because I would.

Tommy Lee being a prime example. Poor hooker, even poorer half. Stealing a SL wage for god knows how long.

You’re like a petulant child, you try far to hard but it’s amusing all the same. So much effort defending a nothing issue, truly incredible when you could just have said ‘no’.

Have to say Printer, I'm with you on this one!

You trying to say he has a square moustache, a slicked back hairline and a liking for blue eyes and blonde hair ?

You’d be surprised Printer what MCB was offered, so please if you are guessing then guess again. His choice not Wakeys.

Oh don’t get me wrong he probably got a handsome wage from Toronto, but Toronto are a bit of a special case and I’m sure Caton Brown realises that and isn’t expecting other clubs to offer him the same. But a week away from a new season and unemployed do you think he’ll refuse to sign for someone unless it matches his Toronto wage? I doubt he’d be that stubborn.
