Maybe they have their Salary Cap well managed ?
You don't see them signing former rep players like Michael Jennings for $800k a season do you?
They may have been interested in Jennings but for probably $400k a season.
They probably got Pearce on the cheaper side because he wanted to play halfback and the Roosters were possibly paying a fair chunk in his first season at Newcastle?
Apart from Ponga, Klemmer and Pearce, I don't see anyone else in their squad that would be on big money.
It's easy to understand why we don't have much money left in our cap.
Paying players like Norman, Moses and Jennings rep wages is just pure outlandish !
Michael Jennings was a current rep player when we signed him, and he gave us two great years before last year.
sshhh!! You are spoiling the narrative....
Yep 2 great years of refusing to pass to Semi and instead hung onto the ball and ran towards the goalposts!!
Really the Jennings/Semi Centre/Wing Combination should of been THE most destructive in the comp but Jennings fkd any chance of that
Finally someone can see just how much of a dud Jennings is !
Radrada didn't see the ball while Jennings was inside him, Takarangi was by far better at setting Semi up than else that played inside him.
Two great years?
They might have been two solid years but no way did they warrant the $800k price tag.
$800k are for match winners...… not players who can't even set a winger up.
How could you call Jennings a rep player? He hasn't shown any glimpse of being a standout player or leader for Parramatta and we have been the worst side over the past 10 years.
True.
I don't mind a club that's been at the bottom of the comp buying the better off contract players.
Hopefully that will be us next year.
Jennings was a great signing for 2 years. Not 4.
Ferguson will be a good signing for a year or 2. How many did we give him 4?
Our halves aren't rep quality but are paid like they are. We need to be a lot smarter and do a lot better. It's not about going all 'money ball' either. Just be smarter where the big dollars are spent.
