GAGAI’S CENTRE MOVE
DANE Gagai’s move to the wing at Souths has caused major salary cap issues with the balance of the Rabbitohs’ roster.
The ex-Broncos and Knights star is on $700,000 next year, which is way too much money for a winger.Canterbury Bulldogs are apparently keen to bring Gagai to Belmore and play him in the centres — his position of choice.
It is unlikely that coach Wayne Bennett would stand in his way.

His defence in the centres is questionable
And for 700k, that’s a top notch centre

I’m not sure I agree with a centre being worth more than a winger, the way the modern games played I’d rate wingers and props as most important positions behind the spine, if Gayguy is available I’d be signing him up, don’t care where he plays, we desperately need speed, strike and experience, he has them all

Depends how much Souths are paying. He doesn’t move the needle enough at centre far better winger

I can confirm that Gagai is on about 650k at Souths through first hand info. They are absolutely shopping him. I'd be interested if Souths paid 250k of that. Anything more wouldn't be worth it considering how disinterested Gagai has looked at club level the last several seasons.

Rapana or even better, Manu. Buckley’s chance at either I reckon

Worth no more than $400-450k and that's being nice.
