How much dosh would we even have for next year??
We might have about one million tied up with Matai and Stewart this year and if we could get the NRL to do the right thing use that money this year to top up current players. But we don't have any extra money for next year apart from what is in the cap.
And we have the Tom and Jake on about $900,000 and $700,000, from 2018. And who knows what Walks etc are on as well.
So if the NRL come to the party like they have for so many other teams in the past..... we may have some money to sign new players and this would also depend on if they could fit into our cap from next year as well.
A lot of if's and maybe's unfortunately at this stage....!
Just amazes me though how some clubs are so active in the player market and are throwing big dollars around....!!
Snake and Matai, plus up to the 1.8 to 3 mill increase in cap, plus anywhere around $500k from any players we release/don't re-sign.
I think we are looking good to target 2 quality (costly) players.
