Hodkinson

Yeah, I wonder if it came down to the fact Cronulla can get him now so he has some preseason with them v not knowing for another few weeks whether he can even come to us and have no preseason.
and remember the choice wouldn't be 100% his ... Newcastle have to agree to release him ... if Cronulla offer to pay say $350k of his contract and we only offer to pay say $250k of his contract .... Newcastle would be saying you're going down to the guppies boy.
 
Was hoping we could get him for cheap, I wonder if we could afford to make a play for Cleary in 12 months
 
Am I right to assume that if you don't spend up to your full salary cap that you don't get to spend it the following season.

Unless you front load a contract then you will have that amount free the following year. But yes if you don't spend it you lose it
 
No different than Pearce going down at the Knights.
Cronk going down at the Roosters.
Milford going down at the Broncos.

The majority will struggle if there are injuries to the marquee halves.
The only difference will be the smart coach that plans ahead and signs an experienced back up .
The morel of this story is......
Fail to plan
Plan to fail

I think the writing must be on the wall for us getting a cap penalty for this year now, but I'm ok with our current squad anyway.

If by some miracle we have any cap left after Greenburg reams us up the arse, maybe we can sniff out Carney if Croker and Hastings can't get it done.

Depending on the size of the reaming!
