Roosters salary sombrero

[Class of 96]

100% correct - except Roosters will win the battle for his signature

So that means Cleary Snr is off to coach the rorters.

Not really, Signed through until 2019, Cleary’s deal ends end of 2019. However Tigers will get him as both he and his dad have said openly they want to team up again one day

But ..... you are forgetting that the modern way of doing it is ..... Ivan will say I want a halfback ....... and some bloke in the office will get one for him without Ivan's input ..... .... or so I have been told .....

A chance - Played at Easts after Manly - would hate that.....the bloke can coach and is a decent bloke also.

Have been rumours round for a few months that both Clearys to the Roosters in 2020 is already a done deal

Looks like Uncle Nick will be missing a few more 3 foot putts.

It's impossible to compete with uncle nick offering players a Ford with a boot full of cash. But seriously according to an article by zero tackle, uncle nick thinks they just manage the cap better. Read on for a great laugh.

“We run our salary cap better:” Roosters

The way the Sydney Roosters manage their salary cap has left the other 15 clubs and their fans often scratching their heads wondering how the Bondi club can fit so much talent in their squad playing by the same rules as everyone else.

With Cooper Cronk and James Tedesco on board for 2018 and young gun Angus Crichton signing on for a reportedly big money deal in 2019, the questions keep getting asked.

Well, Roosters chairman Nick Politis has explained how the club manages to do it and it’s quite simple really.

They are just better at it.

“We plan five years ahead with our recruitment,” Politis said in an interview with Fairfax Media.

“We run our salary cap better than most clubs. We don’t back-end contracts, we don’t put in ratchet clauses that stymie some clubs. We don’t have many third-party agreements. We make some hard calls. We don’t always get it right but we correct them quickly.

“The bottom line is there are 10 to 12 players we let go in the last 12 months, and one very expensive one was Pearcey, who covers Cronk. We also had $600,000 left from 2016.”

When that figure is added to the substantial bump in the salary cap for 2018, Politis wonders why other clubs aren’t flush with cash to spend.
“The salary cap went up by $2 million — you don’t have to be Einstein to work it out,” he said.

“Every club should have spare cash. It was a fair increase. I don’t understand how some clubs don’t have enough left.”

This is a crock. No names will be mentioned but a close mate runs a large Company who were looking to buy 10 vehicles. They were offered 10 for the price of 8 & were given a player managers phone number for the balance. As I said not suggesting it was anyone related to any club but it did happen.

My mate is not a Rugby League fan so declined & bought 10 from another source.
