Would be great business if we were able to keep Manu. The way the market's moved players of his calibre are few and far between.

Radford in LE talking about Carlos and Albert - sounds like we might struggle to keep hold as our (SL) top level salaries are less than they could get as back up players in NRL.

Irrespective of money I think Kelly after 5 years here has already decided he will go back to Australia at the end of the season.

I don’t know him personally but if his mind is made up as you say it’s a shame but understandable. Incredibly skilful player; irreplaceable in that respect.

Manu barring a serious injury with potential future recurring problems would be the one to nail down, particularly as the likelihood of losing Minichello as well would make it very difficult to replace both unless we went in for a name.
MM is one of the best imports we've had, has stayed fit and plays a ridiculous amount of minutes, he will be a massive loss if we don't have someone lined up to take his place unless Watts takes a similar role and a prop can take up the slack of Watts.
Albert I think is already gone, his interview spoke volumes as to where he is going forward beyond 2018, he'd be a big loss going by his 2017 form and it'd mean JA stepping into his shoes though he isn't the same type of player and that brings a different set of dilemma's to ponder over.

Aussie salary cap now £5.4m, with a minimum wage of nearly £60k.

We don't stand a chance.
