        Im pretty sure we are gonna get Tomkins but not confirmed .Folau wanted to team up with SBW but there seems to be a memorandum of understanding(friendship ) between Nick and Dib and dont in each others way of players they want.
        Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe

            I would prefer Folau with RTS at fullback.

            I'm not completely sold on Tomkins. Firstly there isn't much of him, would probably be the smallest fullback in the NRL. Also he isn't a great defender, he is going to get targeted big time.

            Yes he is insanely talented with the ball but considering he is unproven in the NRL and would be costing us a fortune I wouldn't be too upset if we missed out.

              Yeah he would, but where would we put him? He's a fullback or 5/8.....and we have those pretty well covered already, with Baloney and RTS ready to take over from Mini.....

              No point signing blokes just for the sake of it...especially those who are going to command top coin allegedly.

                Thinking about it and I agree, RTS will move to FB. We need another great centre/winger depening on if Moga gets up to speed.

                    How could we afford Tomkins when supposedly SBW wants a mill a season and apparently Tomkins wants not much less. It would be pure madness to have both on top dollars.

                      I thought the Warriors were getting Tomkins? He's not worth the asking price considering he's not proven in the NRL.

                      It would be great if we could get Hastings though. He's been killing it for the Dragons in the 20s.

                        Why do people keep asking questions like this?

                        What a person gets paid in total, and what portion of that are counted in the Salary Cap can be 2 very different things.

                        Third party sponsors and marquee player allowances can make a big chunk of a guys total asking price.

                        Ask Darren Lockyer.

                          But still we would have to pay at least $600,000 each for them.

                            Why?

                              I don't believe we'll sign Tomkins but his manager coming out and saying he wants 1 million was nothing other than a ploy to let everyone know he's willing to come to the NRL with a ridiculous statement that would grab the headlines and get people talking.

                              I'd be surprised if he signs for anything more than 500-600k in the end.

                                There's a limit on the amount of 3rd party sponsorship's and marquee allowance you can have.
