Surely they are offering him a deal... absolutely barmy if they don't. Match winner, plus we're letting Sutty go.. back line would be much much weaker without him next year.

Wasn`t it rumoured we were looking at offering him a 1 year deal and he wanted 2 years?
Agree he is too good a player to let go if nothing else his ability to play anywhere across the backline from 1-5.

Yeh, no brainer to give him a 2 year deal tbh.
He's been very good.
With Sutcliffe, Briscoe, Broadbent and possibly Walker leaving, we are short across the backs.
He can cover anywhere.

So no room in salary cap to offer Zak a deal. Says Rohan

While there are bound to be contract upgrades for squad members / new signings (some maybe not announced) etc eating into the cap that we wont be privy to but I just cant fathom Leeds not signing up Zak.

with 5 or 6 leaving and much cheaper players coming in we must have been over the cap then.
and if there was no deal for zak he would have gone by now imo

I don’t think he’d have risked playing in the NZ game if he didn’t have a contract pretty much sorted. That would only be speculation on my part mind.

It just does not add up . We have 4 / 5 players leaving and we have not recruited any stars on big money.
Unless we have some average players on massive money , which knowing Garys history , I doubt , we cannot be up to the salary cap.
The only other explanation can be that in view of the finances of the club over the last 2 years, the club are unable or unwilling to spend up to the cap limit - we are making the decision based on finances and not on the requirements of the team.

No that's definitely not the case.
I'm sure there's some questionable cap management in the mix in this but there's also some signings still to announce by all accounts. And some upgrades to other players kick in next year.

Let's hope we are not in the Wasps or Worcester finance area.
