We had an issue with background services between march 10th and 15th or there about. This meant the payment services were not linking to automatic upgrades. If you paid for premium membership and are still seeing ads please let me know and the email you used against PayPal and I cam manually verify and upgrade your account.

And they are buying top end players, origin and international.
Manly can't afford to upgrade Blacktown players with 5 games under their belts.

Yeah I agree Ryan and it seems to be a never ending salary Cap and you watch, they,ll come out in a few days and say, we still have 2 million to spend
What makes it worse....when they first started building the team with Guerra, Moga ect....they had to pay overs to get them there....they have obviously had to upgrase Fitzgibbom, Safiti and othere along the way and yet then afford top shelf players on top of this for 2019?

There is something ponga about their salary cap
They'll have a pretty decent backline next year
7. Pearce
6. Watson / Ponga
3. Ramien
4. Moga
2 and 5 Edrick Lee / Kurt Mann / Hymel Hunt / Rossdog
1. Ponga / Watson
and their forward pack ain't too shabby. You'd have to think top 8

Was just saying the exact same thing to a mate today. In the last 2 seasons they have made a heap of signings...
Will be a very strong side next season unfortunately.
To be fair pre Pearce that had nobody , and were in a constant race with the Eels for 16th spot.
I think if Brown doesn’t have them comfortably in the 8 next year, his head will be on the chopping block.
I can’t deny I’m a bit envious of some of the signings they have made..

I wouldn't be surprised if a couple of their players get released/moved on before season starts.
Moga and Ross come to mind.

I like this little feature on their website

Lists all their signings and contract lengths. That's a great way of keeping fans informed

Agreed. Brown has finally got a squad together. Pressure will be on him.
They just signed Moga. He hasn't had a great run with injury poor bloke, but he was looking Ok for them.

He was there last year as well. Very injury prone.
It’s starting to smell that way. Cap transparency is required as I am having trouble accepting they like the rorters ars are under the cap.
Well guess that shows how with the times I am.
Suppose it's Newy's turn for a "fairytale" premiership win then.
