We MUST have room under the cap !!!
Willow would be on around $100k
Hicks would have been on $100k
Monnas would have been on $220k
Burns would have been on $100k
Dunley would have been on $100k
Rose would have been on $50k
Salary cap goes up $100k
That's $770k minimum (I believe I have been conservative).
Surely were are in line to sign a big name player.
Josh Perry is poop.
I'm actually hoping Matt King teams up with Orford / Bell.
Imagine:-
01. Brett Stewart
02. Matt King
03. Steve Matai
04. Steven Bell
05. Michael Robertson
06. Jamie Lyon
07. Matt Orford
08. Jason King
09. Matt Ballin
10. Brent Kite
11. Anthony Watmough
12. Steve Menzies
13. Glenn Stewart
14. Clint Halden
15. Josh Perry / Mark Bryant
16. George Rose
17. Glenn Hall
Have to give some upgrades as well.
Ballin, Cuthbo, Bani (he will play NRL next yr), Stewart 1 & 2, Watmough, Matai etc will get upgrades one would think.
I dont think we can afford another big name signing tbh, maybe 1 $200k a year player but that would be it.

Add Kite and probably even Halden to the upgrades list and we are yet to re-sign Hall who knocked back 70K for next year so he could prove himself for a better offer and with Rose gone he would be in a reasonbly strong bargaining position for 100K
Thats 10 upgrades at 50K or so each
Leaves us with 270K ie Josh Perry + a little
