The bleating has already started. A caller yesterday to Talkin Sport asked how could Manly be under the cap? Hughes response was a smart Alec "Manly aren't the only club I would be worried about". He is still hurting from the dogs cap breaches of 2002 and can't get his thick head around how a team could possibly be successful playing by the rules. Typical corrupt Bulldog mentality. Tooves was spot on yesterday when he pointed out that we already lost three players from the GF winning side last year so there should be room to re-sign all the ones that are left.
The thing I find amusing is that at the start of the 2011 season no-one was even tipping Manly to make the eight with the roster they had, and now, after losing three of those players and signing no-one they can't believe we are under the cap.
Interesting to hear Ewen Mckenzie on the BSB this morning when talking about Will Genia re-signing for QLD. He said players will stay for less money if it means playing with their mates in a successful team. Smart man.
