Something that is becoming worrying is our options at right back.
Nev is gone.
People think Mullen can play there, which he isn't suited to and his spell in the hal at wsw there proved it.
Rumours we're looking at Hoffman to play there!
Sign Cowburn to a senior contract, or somehow convince Risdon to leave Perth, or I'm worried.
OK
Georgievski
He could definitely play there. I was confident he'd go to wsw but with jamieson and neville they don't really need him anymore. He'd come at a price though.
If we had our pick from MV I'd love Galloway tbh.
OK
Barry Toohey has broken down the dire Salary Cap situation we are in.
Salary Cap of 2.6 million
Current 13 players are taking up about 1.8 Million leaving around 800k to play with.
Carney = 240k
Boogard = 230k
Ki Jee = 200k
Birighitti = 180k
Kennedy = 130k +
Kantarovski = 130k +
Mullen = 130k +
Alivodic = 130k +
Cooper = 90k
Barresi = 55k - 90k
Pavicevic = 55k - 90k
Brennan = 55k - 90k
Marlow = 55k - 90k
So $800k to get 10 - 12 players. That's without a starting striker or a midfield. It's been my biggest concern all along.
Take 3 potential marquees out of that and it makes it look a lot better.

Where'd he get these figures?
Oh, you know, X player has to be earning X much

Pretty sure last I heard bk was closer to 70-80
From my limited knowledge of the situation, he isn't far off the money (pardon the pun).
I had been assuming approximately 700k left in the salary cap.
While ever the FFA retain control of the club, we can forget about any marquees.
Hence links with Hoffman and the like are about all we can expect
Not to mention that we were closer to 80% spend of the salary cap and that was while griff, madaschi, jaliens, celeski were still here..
Can't really see how all those numbers stack up tbh.
Plus there is no more Neville who would be demanding closer to 120k one would think.
The kanta and bk figures would be the baffling ones, even taking into consideration rises in wages over the years the increments wouldn't add up to those figures.
I am calling horse dung.
Let's be realistic. The FFA pays the salary cap anyway so no problem there. They will try to get nearly a full squad under that cap. This is also where Griff's offer to play for nothing should be investigated.
As for the marquees, if the FFA is confident of getting an ownership transfer within the next couple of months, then they will leave those decisions for them. They won't buy marquees and hand over the bill to the new ownership. The repair job will take a little time.
And I doubt those posted figured as I know BK actually took a reduction on his last deal to stay in Newcastle because of his mothers illness. Closer to 100 rather than 130.

If that is what we are playing our under performing players then what are Victory et al playing their performing teams and how do they stay below the cap?
I'm baffled really. We are gonna need to sign a lot if cheap players eg travis cooper, max burgess, griff(because he chooses to) , Reagan, Lundy and maybe nicky carle and then save some for 3 to 4 decent quality players

So you guys put all your faith in figures produced by a journalist from the "official newspaper of the Newcastle Knights"?
Let's just see what players we sign in the next 6 weeks and make up our minds then.
