There's rumours that Roosters are after Woods and Taupau (as Manly need to offload another player). Assuming that this happens (and they renew Ferguson), this is their lineup for next year.

OC = Off Contract
#### = Year contracted to

Potential Squad:
1. 2021 James Tedesco
2. 2021 Daniel Tupou
3. 2020 Latrell Mitchell
4. 2020 Joseph Manu
5. OC Blake Ferguson
6. 2021 Luke Keary
7. 2019 Cooper Cronk
8. 2020 Jared Waerea-Hargreaves
9. 2020 Jake Friend
10. ???? Aaron Woods (potential gain for 2019+ )
11. 2023 Boyd Cordner
12. 2021 Angus Crichton (gain for 2019+)
13. ???? Martin Taupau (potential gain for 2019+) - Off Contract with Manly 2020

14. 2019 Dylan Napa
15. 2019 Ryan Matterson (currently injured)
16. 2021 Isaac Liu
17. 2020 Sio Siua Taukeiaho

2019 Mitchell Aubusson

2019 Victor Radley
2019 Zane Tetevano
2020 Nat Butcher
OC Kurt Baptiste
OC Frank-Paul Nu’uausala
OC Mitch Cornish
?? Paul Momirovski
?? Billy Smith
?? Lindsay Collins

Losses for 2019:
Grant Garvey

How in the frig can they afford such a lineup (even without Woods and Taupau). Absolutely ridiculous.

They won't get both Woods and Taupau it will be one or the other if they are lucky and the main reason is they are so well connected with TPA's in the big end of town.

Suspect they’re happy to let JWH and/or Napa go and will have to let at least one of them go to make way

According to politis, "we run our cap better than anyone else, we don't give out massive contracts and players agree to take unders to play for a great club like the rooters"

Pfft, what a load of shit.

It's called cheating.
NRL salary cap is a farce administered by the most incompetent & corrupt organization in world sport.

Smart enough not to get caught.

There is nothing stopping them (or their partners), taking up 6 figure cleaning jobs. ;)
As i said the Roosters have smart & competent business minded people

They are utilizing the powerful 3rd party sponsorship donors they have in accordance with the scheme set out by the NRL

It is not there fault that the dogs had incompetent shitheads running the club who could not attract 3rd party sponsors and manage the salary cap in accordance with the figures given to them by the NRL

Politis owns city ford , and numerous other car dealerships. That’s where the money is. I think there is a system there, he sells the cars and gives them to the family etc. free of charge then they can sell the car or sell it back to him. That’s what I was told but a old east’s supporter

Or just employ family, partners and players to $100,000 cleaning jobs at the Stealerships.

Plus Mark Bouris is on their board too.

There’s nothing going on there, the roosters are just a mighty, mighty club.... players would do anything to play there....what’s a little pay cut? Most players would walk on hot coals from their places all the way to training each day to play for that club....


Bondi is a wonderful place.... proud history, strong team....hardly won shit in 40 years, but still, players are willing to go there to lose preliminary finals, you know? Plus they do laughter yoga there.... and the support staff give the most wonderful cuddles....

Nothing sus going on there at all...
