Not only are they probably going to land Cronk, there is strong mail that they are making a serious play for Angus Crichton as well.....probably one of the best up and coming back rowers in the NRL. The salary cap is a joke.....and this proves it. And the media is falling over themselves trying to explain how it is all possible to a disbelieving public.....has anyone seen even one article questioning any of this?
Ah...no, not a single hard question asked.
The corruption of the NRL is all embracing.
Just read the story on Peace, who is on $800k a season for the next two seasons.
Keary is on $600k a season.
And oh no probs let's sign Cooper for $1.2m.
Or Many can sign Peace on his $800 and DCE is on $1.2 million.
How can clubs afford $2 million for their starting halves even when the cap has been raised to $9.4m.
I know if Mybe plays 6 on $800k & Foran on $750k we are not far off.
But Rorters with Cronk, Peace & Keary will be more like $2.5m.
The salary cap is completely fucked, an unfunny joke and given it's designed to level of the playing field in terms of attracting talent, given this example of Cronk, a complete fucking failure!!
