I’m getting sick and tired of seeing Gould constantly being linked to every quality player on the market (even though that’s his job) isn’t thier cap full and overflowing , or do they work on the same one as the Rorters and Souffs?

The Bulldogs have pretty solid form when it comes to cap cheating
To be honest that is what should happen. My hope is that we are doing a similar albeit more discreet process ourselves
A rich history of it, one could say
double hoops

We have.

Why do you all want AFB so bad?

If this goes through, then AFB coming back to Manly might seem even more less likely.

I discriminate indiscriminately
We have Turbo ($1M+), DCE ($1M+), Jake, Schu, Brooks and Guac (soon) on $800K+… that’s almost $5.5M…
Koala, Preacher, Garrick all $600K+ - another $1.8M…
21 other players to distribute $4.8M between = circa $230K each…
I accept these are back-of-a-napkin calculations but I cannot see how we could be in the position to stump up $1M+ per season for AFB….
It would bring the average wage for the remaining 20 players, including Lodge, Tent, Saab, Frog etc., down to $190K and the minimum wage (which no starting 17 player would be on) is $120K…
For mine AFB market is a non-event unless Manly can get warriors to swap Schu (or someone else in that $800K+ range)…
Koala, Preacher, Garrick all $600K+ - another $1.8M…

Brooks on 600k or 650k I believe.
DCE on circa 800 next year.
Schuster apparently closer to 600k with performance bonuses.
Not forgetting marquee player allowances, long serving player allowances, third party deals etc etc.
Not to disagree with the general theme of your post, as I think us stumping up a mil for AFB is unlikely.
But I think crude calculations of salary caps are always fraught with danger.
i havnt seen anything in the media about dce contract value other than its a secret
on ST ive seen 800 and 1 mill
at some point in 24 i believe journos get access to squad dollars with players names left off the list, so its a guessing game. wont be hard when its released
im wondering where both figures come from and how accurate they are really

May have been on the viable category side if say Alioia and Lodge "s contracts were substituted for A F B and it is still one more season away apparently in any case .
So really just speculation where and how things may eventually pan out and taking into account his own specific club preferences if some of the offers were fairly similar .
Anyway , maybe better to have some confidence that Lodge can seriously deliver when he can resume playing for Manly again and as for Alioia , just no idea really if he can finally provide some value for money and string a good portion of games together .

Was not aware Chez was dropping $400K next season… on his form he should be given shares in the leagues club for taking such a generous hit…
I thought I saw $800K for Brooks but that may be what tigpies offered him…
Either way, we are not in the AFB conversation imo… wish we were but then we were stupid enough to let him walk so here we are…

Sadly you are not even exaggerating…
Man if you can not see the problem is not Waddel, brown, woods etc and it is elsewhere you really are deluded.
We need to fill a squad and some of those are going to be base contracts. As we have a number of highly paid players we need to have a number of low level contracts.
The club appears to be gambling on somewhat undervalued (in their view ) known players rather than kids / other players. If that is your beef then fair enough but to say we are signing players like that instead of players like AFB is just delusional

It would be ideal to sign the next AFB like how we signed him the first time round.
