If it’s stars we are missing, then we will have trouble accommodating them given the wages we are paying to a few key members of the squad. We’re already using the Marquee positions, so unless we can pay these new stars less and therefore not burst the cap, we’re not getting them in any time soon.

Bats who is marquee? Newman Croft and….?

Our aim has to be to build a better squad than Wigan Saints Wire or Cats, simply put. They seem to manage these signings…

I understand that our Marquee players are Croft and Newman, you’re only allowed two according to the RFL website. I think it’s next year when the rules change? https://www.rugby-league.com/salary-cap#:~:text=Marquee%20Player%20%E2%80%93%20Each%20Super%20League,75%2C000%20if%20Club%20Trained)%3B

We need to use it. Maybe with AMT backing we can.

If Sezer is playing well in the NRL but was poor for us, and Croft was man of steel for Salford and is poor for us, maybe its not the players that are the problem.

Quite.

Sezer's main issue at Leeds wasn't that he was playing badly at Leeds. It was that he was barely playing at all.

It’s all irrelevant now. Croft a quality player. Let’s get some speed around him and dummy runners….….

Sezer managed to be disappointing for multiple coaches in SL, not sure what the point is here.

Re: Rowley : Mon Apr 08, 2024 11:41 am  

Think the fact Newman is marquee, shows what a mess we have gotten into…..
