Let's put it this way, if reports are true (and being from Weidler they aren't but just for argument's sake here):

Haas - $1.25 million
Tino - 800k

Is Haas 1.5 times the player Tino is? Nope, he's not, so in terms of pay, it is a better deal. Again, purely hypothetical based on Weidler making stuff up.

You raise a good point but for me, yes. Paying Tino 800k is as bad of cap management as paying Haas 1.25.

Haas is worth a million, Tino is $600k max.

It's a heck of an in list, they surely don't end up with a spoon.
 
Tariq Sims has reportedly broached the subject of a contract extension with the Dragons, but was told he won’t be receiving an offer.

he's been told he's free to leave next year if he can finds a new club

Private school kids are a little bit more sophisticated than the bogans that play league so will understand his Harvard education coaching.

Yep, they'll appreciate a good PowerPoint presentation.
 
They will love his 110% game speed seeing they currently play at 60%.
 
I think it's a good fit actually. I wish him all the best.
 
Well I guess we can put a line through England for the rugby RWC.
 
Looks like old mate Jayden Nikorima has signed with the Storm.
 
Tyrone Peachey has been shopped to the Raiders (as well as us) ... the Raiders are discussing him and are interested enough to call a meeting. looking at an offer of 250k
 
David Peachey - yes.
Tyrone Peachey - no.
 
Fox Sports reporting that the Tigers could part ways with Luke Garner during the off season which will "free up money" to sign either Adam Elliott or Tariq Sims

not sure why the Tigers need to free up any money to sign a player given that just days ago, everyone was reporting the Tigers had $1.6 million spare for next season and 4 spots to fill.
 
Kikau's asking price is 800k acoording to his agent, George Christodoulou.

he says:

“The reality of the situation is ‘Kiks’ would like to stay but if a deal can’t be done, it can’t be done,” said Christodoulou

“Depending on the salary cap situation (at the Panthers), someone might have to be a casualty.

“Kiks is happy at Penrith and he would like to stay. His preference is to do a deal with Penrith, but if they wave the red flag and say we’re out of the contest, then we’ll go to market.

“When you get a unique athlete like Viliame, he is a genuine gamebreaker, so the market will determine what he’s worth.

“For me, I’m saying it has to be upwards of $800,000, but his price could go to $1 million.

“If the Titans paid seven figures for David Fifita, someone might fall in love with Kiks and pay that too. He is 26. If someone wants to throw bucketloads, you have to take it. It’s so cutthroat in the NRL these days.

“Penrith are keen to re-sign him, but whether it’s enough to get him done or not remains to be seen.”

“It’s an option to explore rugby union,” Christodoulou said. “That’s his pedigree, he was a Fijian schoolboy in rugby, he played rugby all his life growing up.

“Right now, he is happy in the NRL, but the reality of being a professional athlete in rugby league, you have a 10-year window at best to set yourself up for life and we can’t bury our heads in the sand.”

“Penrith will have a month’s headstart,” Christodoulou said.

“As it stands, we have put things on hold. I’ve spoken to Penrith and I want Kiks to win this competition without distractions.

“We have a good understanding with the club and are honest with each other.

“There’s been a couple of expressions of interest but it’s been pretty vague sort of stuff.

“If things can’t get done with Penrith, then we’ll put him to market come November, see what’s out there and make a decision.”
