    It doesn't matter if you think there worth it or not, fact is there's always a bottom half team that will pay over market value, Pappy and Latrell will both look at ponga's contract next extension and ask for more and as they should. Happens all the time in the NFL

      If Grant isn't on near 900K with his new deal he should have moved to Dolphins or even Broncs who would pay him that.Hell put Grant in the Broncs side right now and they would fly into the top 8.According to reports Broncs are looking at Munster who will cost them a million per season yet Grant would have had just as big an impact (maybe more).
      For me dummy half is a crucial position often under valued by most.

      I think Gal was right in saying a lot of the top shelf hookers are quite young or on an expiring contract. Brailey brothers, Mahoney, Grant, Smith are all going to be on bigger contracts within the next year or 2. Cook and Koroisau were the real surprises there. Api has obviously bought into the take unders to win the comp rhetoric and it's worked but I would've thought Cook would be around the $800,000 mark.

  • @jojohehe3251

    So, clearly, developing your own players is the key. You get them in their first breakout contract, then you get them for the intermediate, then they graduate to the elite tier. They are elite the whole time, but you get them for unders because they are loyal.
    Unless, of course, it's Ash Taylor, David Fifita, Jaydn Su'A and guys like that. Broncos love to find and lose good players. The Tigers must just about have a full NRL squad playing for other teams, too.

    The NRL salary cap is an absolute joke, Adam Reynolds who is an South Sydney junior and long serving player should have been heavily discounted under the Rabbitohs salary cap.
    Other players like Tom and Jake Trbojevic (Manly), Victor Radley (Roosters) and most of Penriths NRL squad should be rewarded for nurturing local junior players to NRL level.
    Yet the NRL would prefer clubs to just poach players from clubs that have developed them.

      It's unfortunately always going to be like that, Storm is a club that players will play at for less because it is a dominant club, like the Roosters, Rabbits and Panthers (as of late) Whereas struggling clubs like the Knights only have money to offer. Of course every player has their own mindset, some would rather just play for the cash and that is it, some would rather chase premierships at a heavy cost to their own income, some players early on chase premierships, but later on chase money......it is different for everyone. Some players can be swayed, others can't.

      @SilentHotdog28 2 роки тому +8

      Panthers and Storm are 2 different cases. Panthers developed their own kids and they are all loyal to the club so will play for less, plus they are now a good club and have won a premiership. Storm get some juniors from their feeder clubs, but also get 'leftovers' from other clubs and develop them, for instance: Ryan Papenhuyzen, Josh Addo Carr, Cameron Munster, Jahrome Hughes.....Were all players that other clubs didn't want, Storm gave them a chance and of course a player will play for less at Storm when 1. they get a chance there where they don't anywhere else, 2. they get to play for an elite club with a winning culture. (Roosters (and to a degree Rabbits) would be in that boat too). It never will be even, most players will play for less at a good club, especially if that club gave them a chance and/or developed them, closeness to home does play a factor too.
