If we manage to bring in a few more quality players will people think we are bending the rules or just playing to the maximum salary cap. I have always been dubious that we are paying the full cap each year.

If you want people to take notice , you need to write in red lettuce

UR forgetting bout heremaia signed as aswell........and being off the quota so we could keep phelps/lauaki or even bring another aussie in

Will Gleeson play for us again and if he doesn't will next seasons wages or any payments could against the cap.

If he goes we need a centre.

Think you forget Heremaia too Jake! Can't see there being much, unless (hopefully) we manage to ditch Gleeson. I think Turner's growing into the centre roll pretty well to be fair.

Turner impressed me on Sunday, why we took him off is a mystery. However if Gleeson does go then if I were Adam Pearson I'd be chomping at the bit to bring in a world class centre to replace him. You would like to think he will be looking to make a big statement of intent, either at prop or centre or both.

It's not a mystery though is it? It's because Rich Agar is our coach and he possesses such below-average intelligence that he's not even able to learn from three years worth of repeated trial and error, in a way that a chimp or even most breeds of dog would manage.

cant see to much cap left but depending on the rest of the recruitment it could tell us if we have actually been at full cap for the past few years?
so far for me i would do as follows
in - heremia, ellis, mckinnon, seymour and resign lauaki
out - long, phelps, washy, burnett, obst, fitzgibbon

We should be looking to do better than resigning Lauaki

willie tonga has been released by north queensland cowboys ?

lauaki is a good player but getting played out of posistion and not getting enough game time dosent help at all and it woudnt suprise me if wigan are after him

would want big money and we aint got enough cap left to get him

The absolute first priority for AP is to get rid of the total radish that is our current "coach".

That will make the required statement and not affect our salary cap in any way, shape or form.

Please Mr. Pearson, give us an established top quality coach with the full salary cap to spend (and a few loopholes ) and just stand back and watch !
