  To be honest they most of them should be on the Minimum wage of 80k none are going to be 200 + game players... 

  Maybe French but at the moment he is a 50-50 certainty....

    He was re-signed half way through last season. He wouldn't be on anything but a 2nd tier contract.

  I am fairly sure Toutai is on good coin and top 25 - he was signed when he was a first grade regular and in BAs plans
  Folau was also signed when he was hot and I thought he was top 25 but not as certain as for Toutai

    Folou was signed till end of 17 IIRC, while Toutai is off contract at years end. I honestly doubt that Folou is an NRL player, & same with Toutai.  I see he is listed on the wing this week, would much prefer to see him in the centres but much much prefer him in a wenty shirt.

    Would much prefer to look at trying some of the younger players from the junior teams such as Fuimaono after this year & bring them up into Wenty, those from Wenty who have not advanced & on 1 year deals should be let go.

  You cant just pluck names off a list and just get rid of them like we do with the household rubbish every Sunday night, knowing that the garbage man comes every Monday morning.  

  For us to offload someone, another club has to agree to on-board that player contracts negotiated.  In some instances significant relocation logistics, including real-estate needs to be considered, so getting to a point of being cap compliant is a complex process.

  We can only offload those players that another club wants to pick up if we want to shave $ off our expenditure this year.

    I am not talking Cowboys - so no realestate
    
    Titans need outside backs - more than hookers
    And we are offering them a hooker
    
    Maybe we should have offered Greenburg.....

  I really wouldnt be surprised if we have Toutai on $180k+ or something around that.

  I would let them both go any way both suck

  Keep Folau and buy a decent backup centre next year
