Players earning less than $150K in our side

[Nuts]

There are a few players in our side who are earning less than $150K which will make it easier to manage the salary cap next year and keep Tom & Jake. The minimum wage if your in the 17 is $105K.
Garrick $105K
Parker $120K
Suli $105K
Cust $105K
Fainu $105K
Paseka $105K
Boyle $105K
Waddle $105K
Crocker $105K

This is less than a million dollars for 9 out of our 17 players.

Guessing other clubs will be othering 200k plus next year for alot of them.

Value for money players on that list .

The key is to get players with potential and have a coach that can bring out the best of them

This is how we can have our cake and it it too .

The cake recipe .....Turbo1 Turbo 2 DCE , Kapow, etc

 

[Disco]

Can I ask where you are getting those numbers from?

I would be suprised if all of those are on minimum wage..................Fainu just got upgraded and extended no?

Paseka was highly rated and poached

Hmmm

 

[The Who]

Of all the players listed there is only one who I wouldn't be unhappy if he left, the Behemoth.

 

[Woodsie]

Not sure your figures are accurate ..... (see, I can be diplomatic and polite) .....

 

[maxta]

I think there would be clubs willing to take Fainu today for $300,000...i reckon his upgrade at Manly would have to be double that initial figure.
Magic value for Suli, Paseka and Waddell and Parker at that price is the bargain of the NRL !!

 

[Shoe1]

So according to the tele they are all on 10 year 1 million dollar contracts.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

I’d be surprised if we don’t lose a few of these up and comers , that’s the juggle of the salary cap unless you are the Roosters and then it doesn’t matter!!

Not only them, I reckon Garrick's a bargain at that price too.

In fact that minimum price for some of those players is almost unbelievable.

Garrick just signed a new two year deal

The numbers are unbelievable because they are not correct

Miski- $105K- ( Rookie)
Hopoate- $105K ( Manly junior system)
Parker- $150K ( Manly junior who would have got a slight bump in pay)
Elliot- $150K ( Recruit from Titans so we would have paid more than a rookie wage)
Cust- $105K ( Manly Junior system)
Cherry Evans- $1.25M ( Well documented salary- $10m over 8 Years)
Walker- $600K ( Marquee recruit from Souths)
Anderson- $105K ( Manly junior system)
Taufua- $250K ( been in our system for a while now and surely would be on at least this amount, Hes had a couple of contract extensions now)
Elgey- $350K ( Recruit from Titans and was already on a decent salary there, He was also touted as our marquee signing for 2019)
Croker- $125K ( Was on a development player contract, but he did come to us a couple of years ago and pretty sure it would not have been on a Rookie contract)
Suli- $150K ( Last chance saloon contract and this guy was on 1M over 3 years at the age of 18 so I don't think he would have been given a Rookie contract but not much more)
Garrick- $150K ( Recruit from Dragons, had played first grade and there where raps on the guy so I cant see him coming for a rookie contract, we would have paid more to get him away from Dragons)
Smith- $150K ( Recruit from Panthers, would have only left due to him wanting a go at NRL and didn't see an easy path at the panthers to get there, So we would have paid a little more to get him)
Kioa- $105K ( Rookie)
Funa- $105K (Manly junior system)
T Trbojevic- $800K ( I believe Bozo would have ensure he stayed no matter what and I feel Turbo would have stayed for less, but Bozo was not taking any chances)
Hodkinson- $250K ( Proven NRL player, At the end of his career but Barrett was desperate and would have thrown him around $250 to come, thats still 1/4 of Million dollars, not bad coin for a broken body)
Dockar- Clay- $125K ( Recruit from panthers , similar situation to San Smith, so we would have had to pay more than a rookie contract for him to leave the panthers)
Fonua- Blake- $450K ( Recently had a contract upgrade, was on a "last chance saloon contract" when he first arrived but definitely warranted an upgrade and I would say Des would have realised his real value.)
Koroisau- $400K ( Recruit from panthers during Bozo / Barrett rebuild so they would have paid $300K to get him here and he did get an upgrade so I think around $400K is what he would be on now)
Waddell- $150K ( See Sam Smith/ Dokar-Clay, Same situation)
Sironen- $300K ( Recruit from Tigers, another player from the Bozo/ Barrett rebuild and as Bozo is good mates with his dad I'm sure we paid a little overs for him back then, but hes looking the goods now)
Olakau'atu- $105K ( Manly junior system)
Gosiewski- $200K (Recruit from Souths, had a few people talking him up and Souths didn't want to let him go, so we would have paid a decent contract for him, he also got an upgrade.)
J. Trbojevic- $700K ( See T Turbo above- Bozo deal)
Thompson- $600K ( Marquee recruit when we needed one, again during the Bozo / Barrett rebuild when we couldn't attract a rookie to the club, so we would have paid a premium and well worth it)
Perrett- $200K ( Recruit from the dogs, again when we needed forwards depth and we would have paid overs for him at the time.)
Fainu- $250K ( Manly junior system, would have been $105K but recently got an upgrade , and well deserved, he would have jumped at an upgrade of $150K so I don't think he would be on any more. Bargain!)
Taupau- $800K ( Marquee recruit- well documented contract leak, well worth his contract)
Boyle- $150K ( see B Elliott)
Paseka- $300K ( Prized junior Recruit, even as a rookie coming to our club we would have paid big coin for his signature)
Sipley- $250K ( Recruit from Warriors and at the time the Warriors didn't want to release him, he would have wanted an NRL opportunity so we would have paid a liitle more to get him.)

thats 33 players-- so we would only count our TOP 30 in the cap and the other 3 players who have not played in FG would not be counted.
TOTAL salary per season- $10,390,000 and if we take off 3 of the Manly Junior/ rookie contracts, our TOP 30 Salary cap is about $10,075,000 for Season 2019

If we now look at what players may be worth or what they may get in upgrades over the next 3 years then I doubt very much we will be signing anyone of any real note, and with our juniors coming through I would not care, we have the makings of a really good side for the next 5 to 7 years.

Even if we pay Turbo 1 mill and Jake 850K , thats only 250K more than where we are now. Walker will resign for $450K , Api will be squeezed out as will Elgey, Perrett, Hogkinson saving us $1.35Mill,
giving some room to top up a few players like the Turbo/ Jurbo, Garrick, Suli, Waddell. Thompson may only have another season ( hope he does) but then thats $600K back into the Cap.
you will also find a few of the Rookie and Manly junior contracts will drop off and be replaced by B Turbo, Schuster, and co, with players like Boyle, Gosiewski, Croker being cut if they don't produce.

If only we were one of those clubs exempt from a cap.

 

[Stuey Davis’s Socks]

Perrett is on > $200k, I seem to recall $400k is the ST accepted figure

 

[rifraff]

TOTAL salary per season- $10,390,000 and if we take off 3 of the Manly Junior/ rookie contracts, our TOP 30 Salary cap is about $10,075,000 for Season 2019

So we are only over the cap by about 475k. No wonder we are doing so well.

 

[southsideeagle]

Wow if these figures are incorrect then some players are on more and others less as total must be near enough to correct. If we do allow Api to break contract, do we get some compensation?

 

[Spartan Eagle]

Perrett is on > $200k, I seem to recall $400k is the ST accepted figure

Wow..if that's true then he is overpaid. Certainly more value elsewhere. He's never lived up to the expectations.

 

[Peter C]

Api doesn't want to break contract, we are the ones that are saying he's surplus to our needs, so let's hope some club signs him up for the same or more than what we are paying him otherwise we will have to make up the difference.
Elgey is a tricky one, he's only been with us for only one year and he hasn't set the world on fire to be really wanted by other clubs, so we may have trouble offloading him, as for Perrett and Hodkinson, hopefully it's their last season with us.

 

[deanm]

Thanks for taking the time to put this together, however Reuben Garrick debuted in the NRL at Manly & weren't we penalised $350K off the cap this year?
Otherwise I think you are pretty much spot on with your estimations.
