Cronulla Sharks already over 2020 Salary Cap

If you can’t read the article clearly in the photo basically, Graham, Fifita, Johnson, Moylan, Dugan & Woods. Those 6 guys are all on at least 800k or more next year, leaves the Sharks with only 4.65 million in the cap to go towards the other 24 players on the 30 man roster. Seems like they may need to shed a few of those 6 players mentioned (2 minimum imo) to have even have an actual roster next season. The NRL is apparently investigating the situation.

What do we all think? Are they in trouble for season 2020, are the Sharks days in the NRL numbered? Does the Perth Sharks have a good ring to it?

  • If the Sharks have to shed a player or two , the Eels should target young Jack Wiliams.

  • No wonder why Dugan doesn't want to retire.

     

  • Dugan 900K?  WTF? Terrible deal by the Sharks for a washed up, injury prone park footballer.

    So can the Sharks keep Bronson Xerri?  If not, he would be a great target for the Eels.

    • My pick. We could do with another  guy .  Centre

       

  • Xerri and Williams would be great. But they ll release 2 older players before they let those proven young guns go. 

    • Yeah Nick, Matt Prior being linked to us a lot, wouldn't surprise me if he ends up here.

      • I think prior would help a lot with our middle defence.  He is also a hard worker so is a good role model for the younger players coming through.

    • That’s not the issue tho. They’ll find it hard to have a roster this year if they don’t let anyone on substantial money go. 

      • The problem in letting a cheapie like Prior go is that you have to replace him. Therefore there is little nett gain in reducing your cap.

        If they are in strife as suggested by the DT then they will need to let someone on a substantial contract go. I don’t know how they are under the cap this year if you can believe what was written in the media pre season 

  • The NRL - “nothing to see here “
