Andrew Fifita --> 4 year deal with the Sharks

Fifita would have been great at the Broncos.
I would have happily paid the money for a bloke that could break tackles and bend the line on a weekly basis. A prop with a bit of mongrel in him.

Heard from an assistant coach at club that looked into signing Benji that his match fitness is nowhere near first grade standard. Described him as "completely busted". This is said to be why he failed at his union endevour and why all clubs are highly reluctant to sign him.
He's been offered huge money by an English club and Cam Smith wants him at the storm.

Broncos were never an option then. Corvo would have killed him!

Storm are such a good fit for him. They need a 5/8 and I would imagine he would thrive in a side where he doesn't have to organise jackshit with the structures they run and Cronk / Smith running the show. I think Slater would get a bit more space with Benji attracting more attention.
Also Benji would probably prefer a genuine shot at another premiership, it's the type of incentive he needs.

Benji has been claiming that he is fitter then ever. I guess he didn't realize just how unfit he was.

Kevin Proctor is apparently set to sign a 3 year deal with Roosters worth $500,000 a year...
Proctor for 500k? Ridiculous..
Storm are apparently chasing Chris McQueen as a replacement.

I thought they were shedding players to pay Smith? They're just going to lose someone and replace him with a QLD Origin rep?

Terrible signing IMO
And your right, Procter was one of the 'we have to lose him for smith'. How can they afford McQueen if that's the case

Proctor has been pretty good this year but $500k is a lot. He could either grow another leg at another club or be a massive flop.

Melbourne have other players coming off contract too, among them include Ryan Hoffman & Matt Duffie, both of whom I'd be surprised if they re-signed on the same contracts that they're on freeing up some cash for McQueen.
I also don't think McQueen would be necessarily asking for Origin money. He may be a starting player, but only because he has a specific role and only for the time being. I'd imagine he wouldn't be expecting a lot of coin to play alongside a few of his Queensland team mates.
