This smells like a rat to me. Some of the offerings to players prior to this announcment now seem to make sense. Was there any insider trading??? Our offering was resonable to the players leaving and yet we where outbid by clubs who had no salary cap space? I will leave names out of it at a risk of being sued.

That's a reasonable question...
Speech you ust be a real dope to even suggest this , all clubs are made aware of cap increases well in advance , player managers know of cap increases well in advance and players know of cap increases.well in advance .
Maybe you should look at the people who run the club as to why they lose players and not make ridiculous statements .
According to speech V"landy's or Abdo picked up the phone and called the Bulldogs and said " Hey Gus no other club knows this but we are raising the cap so you can offer players more money , we will wait a while before we let the other clubs know so you can sign a few players first "
Speech you are the reason why income tax keeps going up , only god knows how much money the government has to spend keeping people like you under treatment.
It's all pretend fiat money.
This blog had gone through the roof .
Yes it is possible that some clubs at least suspected in advance by rumours , if not forewarning , of the 2023 salary increase . If that had occurred then I would not be surprised such of those fortunate clubs approached potential new 2023 players on basis of a bigger spending budget ( $1 million plus per team ) being available .
Add to that signing based on suspecting a cap increase can be dangerous , happened to dogs last time when it didn't go as much and they were in a mess and only recovering now
The only thing add is why we can't keep out first grade team together. While other clubs can fit so many rep players & resigned most of their juniors. We need to start building with quality players. Otherwise we could be out of the top 4 next year.
Tim Tim you say Eels can be out of the top 4 next year who do you think will it be this year? I see a genuine top 6 at least squeezing into 4. I think Broncos with Adam Reynolds away from Cook a very firm contender. Cowboys and Panthers always improving, Storm building back and Roosters still offer a lot. Haven't mentioned Eels, Sharks or Bunnies yet. Dragons trying hard as well. Never take anything for granted. I'm not referring to cap space just eligible teams. Top 4 looking very very crowded and congested.
