Question: players on minimum contracts

Good question and I've never really been able to get my head around how this works. I would assume if the portion of the contract that remains on our books puts it in the list of top 30 salaries then I would assume so.....but who knows. I mean this year we released Lussick and Hastings and they came out of top 30, so I'm assuming we were able to move them on for a significant enough portion of their contract value that they didn't remain in squad. But if you go back to the farcical Mr Plod scenario then we couldn't on sell his services this year so he remained in the squad and sucked up cap despite not even being in the country let alone at another club.
Those 2 moved out of the NRL therefore came off our headcount.

Rule is subjective as usual, if a significant portion of a transferred player's contract is still on the original Club's books, then he is still part of the Top 30 headcount 😎
 
Mr Plod should have been moved across to an Ambassador role, sharing the love of Manly at his exotic holiday destinations like Hawaii.
