Bulldogs Salary Cap Position In 2019

[djdeep4172]

First post here
Yesterday I was at the leagues and I saw George Coorey and approached him.
I said to him “ George I think the doggies will surprise most in 2019,they have recruited
Some good young players from other clubs and given some of our own a taste of first
Grade last year that will hold us in good stead,he told me that the bulldogs have one million to spend left in the cap and we are after a centre,but at the moment there is no one worth recruiting for that position.
He also mentioned that they’ll use some of that for topping up players contracts in 2020.
Also of note,George Coorey said “When we finalised our squad Morgan Harper had to be put in the top 30 as he had interest from at least another 8 clubs”
That’s my share for the day,like every year I always expect our team to do well,I think
The youth we have recruited from outside the club and within will be of great benefit.

Welcome to the Kennel, nice to have you on board.

Thanks for sharing you discussions with George.

That ($1m left in the Cap) is a little better than my rough maths after we signed Napa. I like the flexibility it gives us to pounce if someone worthwhile pops up. With the bonus that we can top up contracts and retain those that have justified it.

Why didn't we grab segeyaro

I highly doubt we have a million under the cap.........If we couldn't get the centre we wanted why not just sign players in other positions for a year.

id rather them frontload contracts, then just buying a player for the sake of it .. is there anyone available that is really worth it ??

I don't think we have a million to spend to begin with anyway but I'd have rather have kept J Moz for another year. The backline is a real worry.

I think its been stated, that he was offered one year but wanted 2.

Lol i was thinking the same as both of you

#1 He's not a centre.
# 2 Around 3 clubs (including us) have looked at him and it appears that their "due diligence" has resulted in no offers being made.
#3 With #2 in mind, it seems that he wants too much (considering the risk).

I think the off-field issues of the past played a part - We have enough grief as it is with the NRLOLs 'tough new stance!'

Surprising that he still has no club though

Tell him to use that million on Cotric The centre the game and the dogs need.

Agree there is no one worth approaching as a centre ATM. Have they considered some young Kiwi Rugby centres?

 

[Noeasyday]

If true it's a good play by the club.
Front loading contracts will give us more to splash on with the 2020 playing roster.
2019 will give the young guys a year to show their worth.
Harper being promoted is the right choice if he's being targeted by other clubs though this means if the right player becomes available then we'd need to offload a player.

Nice write up, good too see we are sitting a little better than thought.. I think we will be fine and the next couple of years will show a lot of promise!! Thanks for sharing and of corse..

Go the doggies.!! Let’s do this.

 

[Dogna88]

I have been told although we have a fair bit of space its not a million...

Been told yes, we chasing a centre but atm no centre worth paying. The club wants to see how Harper develops this year. Ie. We might already have our centre
