The silver lining

Posted by Blue&Gold on October 15, 2014 at 12:06pm

I'm not going to depute Hayne's reason to leave, in fact I think it's brave and I applaud it.

With our cap having issues next year, this will realign things back into perspective.

i.e. Monies be spent in our halves where it deserves. So when DCE / Foran become available, we can throw the book at them.

We are also in a interesting position with possible fullbacks available in the market now.

Hoffman, Boyd, Barba.

Now if any one of these guys are available, we would sign them only on a part-paid contract.

This leaves us in a healthier cap position that possibly spending $1m a year on Hayne year on year.

Is it too early to suggest we approach Brett Stewart . We'd get Watmough then as well

  That's not a bad package deal in my opinion.
  
  And together they would come cheaper too.

Parramatta are fucked for next year
And with no great signings for next year it doesn't look good.

Need to go all out to get Foran for 2016 now.
