[Doggiezbrah]

At what point does cronullas cap get questioned ??

It has been reported that the sharks have set amounts they spend on certain positions hence why they can afford to players. It’s good cap management.

Moses Mbye and Aaron Woods left immediately while Morris will at least get an end-of-season farewell as the club battles to get its well-known salary cap problems in order.
"You don't want it to happen," prop Aiden Tolman said.
"You don't want to see players like Aaron Woods and Moses - who has been here a long time - or J-Moz who has been here for 10 years. You don't want to see those players go.
"But that's professional sport. He had an opportunity at another club and he's got a young family so he took that up.
"It's disappointing because he is such a quality player and he's a good person so to lose a player like that. But he had to do what's best for himself so he is going to a great club."

Haha certain positions 1 through to 17 lol

Clearly, The sharks have taken the money they used to spend on pharmacists, and have poured it into accountants.

 

[Howie B]

Tough one. He has been a great player for us but its a bit risky to sign 32 year old outside backs to multi year deals

One year extension was probably right call but he got 2 years somewhere else so he had to take it

 

[D- voice]

Let us be realistic
It appears the management and the coach have long made a decision to whom they are resigning and whom they are letting go.
The Morris brothers are quality footballers but they are 32 this year and injuries prone and probably asking for two years extension at a high price,
My question to the kennelers...Would you take a gamble on them considering their Fees Injuries and age ?
I know I wouldn't
On a personal note, good luck to both of them !

According to the report "they have young families to look after " So money is a priority,
Does that answer your question ?

 

[chisdog]

Replace with Milne please

Did you see how he behaved at the end of the game at the weekend, his first game back? If they game went 5 minutes longer he was going to get sent off. A druggo & a hothead.

 

[chisdog]

They are useless. They only caught the Storm, us and Parramatta as a result whistleblowers.

How did The Raiders & the Warriors get caught out?

Haha totally, $100k under the Cap and $500k on top

Don’t blame him for taking the money. Last contract for him. Young family. Can’t blame the bloke for that. We had him for 10 years and got some good years out of him. Correct me if I’m wrong but he was always a staunch des fan along with Bmoz. Seem to be clearing out all the Des lovers.

 

[Powerslide]

OK, so question for everyone... do we
1. Go after a current First Grade player to replace JMoz and BMoz.
2. look for promising players (Can't make First Grade without injury at another team) to cover the loss and re-sign Martin and Lewis?

There are some gun young centres around at the moment. This is where recruitment needs to step up and find them

Look at Brian Kelly from Manly. He was playing under 20's for Gold Coast in 2016. Manly got him before he had played first grade and he has turned in to a top class centre within 18 months

Thats the style of player we need going forward

tolman is irrating, "he is going to a great club" it makes me sick what does he think we are.

Fk off Tolman...You can follow him there too.
Don't you ever forget it, this is the best club, we are only in this situation because of the over paid useless c...ts like you !!!

Bulldogs centre Josh Morris will leave Belmore at the end of this season to take up a two year contract with the Sharks.

Morris, who joined the Bulldogs in 2009, has currently made 209 NRL appearances for the club.

Chief Executive Andrew Hill paid tribute to Morris' tenure at the club:

'Josh has been an outstanding servant to the Bulldogs over a ten year career and is a big part of our history during that period. The club made him an extremely competitive offer to stay, but he has decided to take up a contract with the Sharks. We are disappointed to see him leave but we understand that he has done what he thinks is right at this stage of his career. We look forward to seeing him finish this season strongly with the club and leaving with some great memories."

I could reveal now that prior to signing Hasler, three times the management had meetings with the players asking their opinions about resigning him and every time their reply was the same it's not his fault it's ours.
It seems to me we have many players who were loyal to Hasler and the dollar rather than to the fans and the club.
Does this tell us why we had so many overpaid average player
Let the clean up continue !!!
