Any business would call these "incentives" and now it is up to Gutho to achieve those incentives. I see this as a good thing.

How does a $50k increase every year if he makes origin in those years add up to $350k over 3 years?, this story is full of massive holes.

If Gutho is making Origin, it means he's playing the house down. Stop talking about stuff you can't control. I'm very happy we're locking up KEY figures of our side. You're the same idiots begging for us to sign Dylan Walker.

Most of our side will be from the juniors. It leaves us in a GOOD position to be spending portions of the cap on Marquee players. You know, the players that help the juniors become stars? It's not all the coaching you dweebs.

I reckon we got him cheap - worth at least $3mil/3 years.
