  The fact that Cowboys chairman Lancini can sell his players houses from his companies at below market value and yet we are getting done for partly trying to entice sponsors to jump on board is absolutely ridiculous. Rules for some rules for others. Clubs deal with TPAs at an arms length my arse

    chips dangerously > RIDER April 13, 2016 at 5:33pm

    I don't think Mannah and Gordon are a consideration as anything more than solid 1st graders despite there 1 SOO appearance each and Rads isn't on a big contract as of yet anyways. This leaves us with the 3 stars we bought this year Foran Jenko Scott and throw in Norman. Especially since Hayne left it is hardly the equal of the Storm or Bulldogs teams. Watmough's salary shouldn't even count towards this years cap as he sustained a career ending injury so does this not qualify for cap dispensation?

  I was just trying to be fair and added ex reps because even though they may be past it they are usually on decent coin.
  
  The whole blog is subjective but it was more comparing teams and while we are being questioned by other clubs, the Broncos and Cowboys go on their merry way.
  
  Nothing concrete here, it's just an interesting comparison for some of us.

  Agree, but all it takes is one person with some inside info and a chip on their shoulder.
  
  Remember Storm had the same thing as we do now.
