Something we all know .....

Well it's exactly wrong. Tonie Carroll retired, but there were also upgraded contracts for players (Peter Wallace springs to mind), the signings of Te'o and Setu, which were done to replace Carroll.

The Folau for Carroll swap is a myth. The managers of Stagg, Boyd, Ennis, Kemp and Moon were all told look elsewhere, even if you have an option for another year, because Folau's signing plus the intention of Lockyer to re-sign after 2009 meant there was no chance of upgrades or even matching existing deals.

Aren't we all forgetting that another reason those players were told to look elsewhere was that the club was preparing to make a big offer to KHunt our future captain and leader??? Bruno was keeping money in the kitty for that. So I don't think we can blame Folau for the entire situation.
