Austin, Gannon, Oledzki, O’Connor improved their contracts, plus others. Fusitua full wage will be included next season.
Ruan, McDonnell, Hooley, Warren, Sangare have come in, plus expected Derrell Olpherts, Nene MacDonald and Luis Roberts.
I do wonder how our cap is managed myself, there must be quite a few of biggies on there
Why haven't they been announced by now if they are coming ? There's no reason under normal circumstances why it would be delayed so I do wonder if that was the plan but now it's changed with the Walker/Hardaker situation.

if you look at those that have gone against those that have confirmed as coming in, there's no way in hell the new guys are on as much as those 4 regular 1st teamers that left. not even close. Fusitua must be on a fortune. Bad bad business if so.

Connor going to The Giants by the looks. I’d say that could mean Zak ends up at FC. There’s a case to argue we should be signing both of those players for 2023 and it’d leave us the quota spot for if something comes up in the pack. There’s obvious business we just don’t seem to be doing Connor would be perfect for us at the moment

When the 20/20 rules were in place, the Cap was £1.6M, meaning the average wage for those in the 20 was £80k.
Even if JB and MM were on £20k each that’s a £20k difference. They can’t have been on less. Mellor wouldn’t have left Giants for a pay cut so must have been on or close to £80k.
It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.

Signing a player (who is known to sulk and be a flat track bully) and who is injured with a serious injury is not a perfect signing for us in any way shape or form
Total additional spend from new players and upgrades £410k. That lease £150k spare cap space....
Yeah don't think you're likely to be far off there.. whichever way you look at it, there's surely surely decent cap space. It doesn't add up what Rohan said....

We won’t be bringing in Hardaker. Already well stocked at full back and centre.
