They lost Cronk & Mitchell off the cap which was around 1.6M. Bought Flanagan 400K & John Morris 250K plus upgrading 4 players worth around 600K.
I’m talking about this season, Cronk and Mitchell were never on the books for 2020, teams have to spend 95% of their cap, so the most they could possibly have had (legitimately) to spare is $490000, pretty good accounting to get Josh Morris and SBW for that

I actually think this is an odd bit of bad judgement from the Roosters. Sure he’ll bring experience and professionalism but that team is not lacking in any of that. This is sheer arrogance from Politis to bring someone like that into an already stacked squad and will backfire I reckon. Not to mention SBW isn’t the player he was in 2013, I don’t care how hard he trains.

He doesn't need the money obviously. The Roosters don't need him. Isn't he supposed to be religious and spiritual stuff mean more to him than dollars. Hasn't he admitted he did the wrong thing to the Dogs ? We're in need more than ever. Our players need role models (as far as training, game preparation goes). SBW in his early years was the best forward I'd ever seen. He was probably my favourite player but if he chooses to return to the Roosters now ahead of us when he doesn't need the $$$ and we're in need (especially after being further raped by CHN) then Sonny can fuck off permanently too as far as I'm concerned and I'll never count him as a great player for our club - just another greedy c..t and he can go to hell.
you obviously don't any kids or a family to take care of. He doesn't owe anything to anyone. Is he greedy for wanting to provide for his family?

The way I see it signing Cronk and Teddy put you over the cap... Now Cronk is gone the club uses his apparent salary as evidence to being under... Biggest con job the league has ever seen imo

Even though they let go of 17 players from 2016-2019 ?

How can that be used as justification?

As an example if of those 17, 12 of them were backup players on minimal or low coin, you still need to replace those players to make up the minimum 29 squad numbers.

Hence the salary of those let go doesnt magically disappear and get added to a better players salary for re signing.

$bw is a ****, ever since he don't the dirty on our club, and he can go to the cheating rorters and hopefully he gets smashed and injured in the first hit up, don't want him here ever.
Also I don't think his body will hold up anyway, I'm just hoping he's bashed senseless either on field or off lol.

SBW has always been a flog.

Although in fairness to Sonny, he has the intelligence of a peanut, so I’m not sure he’s capable of any particular thought apart from just knowing how to play footy and get contracts.

Don’t know many flogs that have won 2 NRL titles, 2 Rugby World cups and at 34 gets a 2 year contract worth 10 million dollars.

I spoke to the SBW when super league gave them the green light to play in Australia.

A few clubs contacted his agent before the news went public. The dogs made no attempt to to say anything. He didn’t say what clubs but when I asked about the dogs he said no. Nick called him direct, pretty hard to sign with another club when you are mates with uncle nick.

If anything you've actually proved my point.

Your club also took the bullshit option of sacking SKD for drugs when in the past they've covered it up.

pearce was still contracted to the roosters when Cronk and Tedesco were signed, and could have played the year if he had stayed...they had room for both under the cap... apparently... biggest load of shit...

I acknowledged his abilities on the field. All I said was he lacks intelligence off the field

So he’s coming back to the rooster. And said he thinks it’s a challenge and that lights his fire.
What a fucking load of shit. Challenge. Entering a top 3 side. Joke!

Reports the Roosters are trying to get special exemption so SBW doesn't have to spend 2 weeks in isolation.

If that happens it 100% confirms and underlines the rort. Thompson didn't get one, the Warriors have had major headaches because of the 2 weeks isolation order.

Can't believe the NRL would be so stupid to approve this, it stinks to high heaven that it is even being asked for.

I'd be happy to see anyone win the title but the Roosters, I hate typing this but even the eels.

V'landys has tarnished his image by making this deal happen for his mate Nick.
