The purge is on!!

  • 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.

There will be no mass purge @Mark from Brisbane I am sorry to inform you.

30 man squad needs to be cut to 28 for next year.

So from our current 30

-4 = Waddell, AFB, Boyle and Thompson.

+1 = Foran.

That leaves us with 27.

In that 27 we can safely assume Danny Levi, Luke Metcalf and Tony Williams will all go. Plus maybe Albert Hopoate and Brendon Elliott.

So we have (minimum) 4 to (max) 6 vacant spots, of which 2 will be taken by Schuster and Ben Turbo.

So maybe we are getting 2, 3 or 4 new players. Of which one must be a hooker and a goal kicker.

There is of course the now unlikely Garrick trade.

Have I missed anything?
I am pretty sure Schuster was upgraded to the 30 this year.

Musgrove left early on I think schuster may haven taken his spot
 
Re the calls for croker to see out his contract at blacktown....if we did not have the injuries we did there is no way he would be in first grade.

At full strength I can not see him on the park
Unfortunately I don't think we have been "full strength" for more than 3 games in a season since 2013.
 
I imagine the pay cut will only be on the portion paid by the club/cap. The guys with big TPA's and brown paper bags will lose far less than the guys whose total monies is only club/cap.

So the Rorters players will be sweet is what I get from that.
 
The six players confirmed so far that I have seen,

1. AFB
2. Waddell
3. T-Rex
4. Levi
5. Elliot
6. Thomo

Nothing official on

1. Metcalf
2. Garrick for Saab
3. Miski (development contract finished)
4. Boyle

I think that this list is about as accurate as we all know at this point.

There could well be others.

I think somehow this is going to be a very big turnover year, we could very easily see a third of the squad gone and maybe even more.
