Re: Can the club recover?
On one page it lists what the payments were for - a lot were things like non inclusion of FBT and agents fees - the players could have got cash expecting it was their full wage without any idea that all the costs were not added into the cap - their agents would have been communicating the offer to t...

Salary breach level
If we have broken the cap by 1.7 mil and 0.7 is for 2010 that means its 200k per year for the five years before then. Given thats not (in the scheme of things) a massive amount I am amazed the previous admin went to such lengths - its like one mid level player....all this pain now being caused for ...

Re: Who might go ???
They say its about 700k this year - if GI/Cam/ Billy are on 500k that means one of their standing plus one other - or maybe 3-4 mid range players..or an across the range pay cut We can survive - we will.. The strange thing is it doesnt seem to be *direct* payments that have been the issue - its thi...

So whose staying...
I know its a total shock but is anyone actually seriously thinking of leaving when the dust settles

Re: Player ratings
No point dropping players for 2 bad games - doesnt give them a chance to redeem themselves - I cant imagine a professional sportsman at this club will not give a much better performance than last week. Gonna drop Cam?? Didnt think many people would...... so why drop others when he was one of the mo...

Re: Round 6 vs Manly *SPOILERS*
I am surprised anyone is saying Archer is a bad ref - ok he missed a couple of things but he gave us the last grand final with the penalty Billy got when the Eels were ods on the overrun us, and most refs would not make the call. he also didnt do anything when crocker and slater smashed Stewart in t...

Re: Round 4 Good Friday game
GI cant do a lot without service. The games so far this year have been an arm wrestle of defence, not free flowwing attacking football. Their is no way GI can shine at center when its not been supplied their as much. Billy on the otherhand has the freedom to play up in the line floating around the r...

Re: Team v Penrith...anyone know a good forward?
I am happy Coops is back just for his ability to take the ball to the line without the defense knowing what he will do. Signs are good given Hoofy, Adam, white and Sika still to come (i.e. a full representative pack!). GI looked solid, just didnt get chance to get the ball much. Besides the dropped ...

Re: Toyota Cup-Round 4

Re: Official WCC Squad
As a born and bred Leeds fan I have a second chance to see the dream game played - i think storm will win especially as donald is injured and delayney, although names is carrying injury. My main concern will be out halves and the lack of a great kicking game, i reckon Cam will be asked to do more he...
