The Cowboys are desperate.
They know they are fucked if they lose him and if they do they will feel that loss for a long time.
I'm anticipating some pain for the Cowboys when they lose their senior forwards. I wouldn't say they have some quality depth in the forwards.

It was a lifetime contract but I had a Dummy spit Get out Clause written into the contract.

He would be crazy to lock himself in that long for only a $1m a year, he will be worth more than that if he stays injury free.

Long term deals really work, just ask Brent Sherwin and Sonny Bill Williams.

Depends on a lot of things. McLean might be another Storm player who leaves and becomes terrible, Granville is a one trick pony, Hoare could come good but who knows, Hess has shown a lot in his few games and Taumalolo might become too comfortable. I can't see him playing like he does now for 10 years either.

Historic day for the Cowboys and an excellent signing.
Even if that was the case, it's a hell of a trick.

They just signed McLean.
Furston is on 1M+/yr.
Now Tomato gets 1M/yr.
I don't care if the cap goes up a bit next year. These ***** are 100% rorting the salary cap. They're not even hiding it.
Why didn't they get pinged back in 2015 they fucking got away with it, and it proceeded to cost us the title. **** you NRL and your fucking double standards of love for the 50wboy$. You ping Melbourne and Parra but not these pricks.

Well they have lost Tamou and let Hannant go, you would also think that Scott's days are now numbered and the only way he stays is on much lower dollars.
Looks like Bolton and Cooper are up for new contract tho, you would also think they would want to lock up Hess. Some juggling to do there.
*EDIT*
Good forward pack or not it won't matter, once Thurston goes they will be right back to where we are trying to recover from Locky retiring.

in that case you could almost say the same about us.
Milford is about to sign a $1 million contract
Boyd will get something close to $1 million as well (although probably not quite as high)
we have just re-signed McGuire, likely on a decent contract
and Gillett will require a sizable upgrade as well.

Bulldogs line-up biggest recruitment heist since the 1990s
In a move that would create a new level of hostility between the Tigers and Bulldogs, Canterbury has already made a move to try and entice Aaron Woods, James Tedesco, Mitchell Moses and Luke Brooks to Belmore for the 2018 season.
Fox Sports NRL reporter James Hooper has told Triple M, the ongoing contract saga surrounding the four off-contract Tigers stars has been shaken up.
“There’s been so much speculation around about these four players and what’s going to happen,” Hooper said on Triple M Saturday NRL.
“Over the course of the last week, the rumblings have gotten louder and louder, that one of the clubs playing today — the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs — might well decide that they’re going to make a play for all four.
“Don’t ask me how the hell they’d fit them all in.
“Aaron Woods is certainly a great NSW and Australian Test front-rower. James Tedesco is arguably the best fullback in the game and then you’ve got the two young halves.”
Triple M NRL analyst and former Panthers star Ryan Girdler said he could not fathom how the Bulldogs would be able to fit the star quartet under the salary cap for next season.
The potential recruitment coup has been described by Hooper as the most significant group-player signing since the Bulldogs lost stars Jim Dymock, Dean Pay, Jarrod McCracken and Jason Smith to the Eels in 1996 after winning the 1995 ARL grand final.
“If it does happen it would be the biggest play of four players going from one club to another since then,” Hooper said.
There has been a stand-off between Woods, Tedesco, Moses and Brooks with the Wests Tigers since the club first put contract offers on the table in November.
Woods, the Tigers’ captain, on Thursday said he won’t be rushed into deciding on his future until the club appoints a long-term NRL coach.
The joint venture is on the lookout for a new mentor after their shock decision to axe Jason Taylor on Monday, leaving caretaker Andrew Webster to guide the team temporarily.
However the club is adamant it won’t be rushed on a search that has so far linked them with former Penrith head Ivan Cleary and current North Queensland assistant Todd Payten.
Woods declared last week he would only settle on a new contract once a new coach is in place at Concord, and the latest developments hadn’t changed his thinking.
“There’s still no certainty with what’s happening. I still stand by my comments. I didn’t say sack JT or anything, which I think has been misinterpreted in the media,” Woods said.
“All I said was JT was off-contract, I just want to know who the coach is going to be. They want me to sign a long-term deal. I’m not going to sign where there’s no certainty of what’s going on.”
The NSW State of Origin representative reiterated he had no say in the demise of Taylor, but was open to lending his opinion on his replacement.
“They can (ask) if they want, but at the end of the day, it’s their decision,” he said.
“It’s out of our hands. All I did last week was ask who the coach is going to be and that’s it.” Woods dodged questions on whether he had spoken to other clubs, instead opting to discuss the team’s current plight ahead of Sunday’s round-four match against Melbourne.
“I haven’t thought about anything. I’ve been pretty disgusted with the way we’ve performed over the last couple of weeks,” he said.
“First of all you need to know who the coach is going to be long-term. I’ll sit down with my wife and sort it out, and my management.”
Teammate Elijah Taylor admitted feeling frustrated by the club’s decision to sack Jason Taylor on the back of what has been a scandalous few months.
Taylor’s dismissal comes just a week after disgraced centre Tim Simona revealed some players had used illicit drugs during post-season celebrations a few years ago.
It is the third club in a row where Taylor has watched the head coach get fired. “They don’t teach you how to deal with this in the under 20s. It’s very educational. You see true colours of a lot of people. You see the media and how they operate,” Taylor said.
“But I’ve seen it three times. It’s very difficult. It definitely disrupts the team, but we just have to move on now and focus this Sunday on the Storm. We’ve got no choice.”
