Two million??? So by your account there are THREE players at the Roosters who were/ are on 1 million, Cronk, Tedesco, Crichton. Then take into account Keary who is on reportedly 750k, JWH, Cordner,Tupou,Morris, Hall, Mitchell, Aubusson, Manu and the other 18 players that make up their top 30. Aubusson has re-signed, Flanagan is on the way.If they lose Cronk and Crichton thats 2 million they'll free up, Frizell and Fifita wont cost 2 million between them, there will be about 300k there to upgrade one someone like Manu, and by the time its time to upgrade Latrell they will have let go of Bmoz, Hall and going by their history watch for someone like Friend be let go of as well now that they have that other young gun, that'll easily cover Latrell's upgrade.
Im not trying to defend the Roosters but let's take our bias and blue tinted googles off, we wouldn't complain if we were more competent with the cap ourselves. They are ruthless, thats why they can sign big name players, they don't hold any loyalty to anyone and that's how they've been able to construct the team they have.
I do agree that they don't look at loyalty in any way and they use up a player and when it suits them they simply get rid of them and then sign the next best thing.
