Looks like we're not gonna use our $$$?

What about this BS rumour that Toops is out of favour with the club and would be a good pick up for the bronx.

I assume this is nonsense from a nobody - haven’t heard anywhere else? Has anyone else seen/heard this?

Hahahaha I'm not reading that

We have another 5 weeks.

See which ten Broncos players become available.

EDIT: From the Broncos carcus I think Corey Oates would be a good buy if the Broncos pay half his salary. Kevvie doesn't want him. Good replacement for Bmoz. Try scorer, good under the high ball and good defender. Run at me.

Toops on one wing , Corey Oates on the other would do me.

[RoosterBoi]

Issako? Winger, can goal kick at a good rate, if Brisbane let him go i reckon he'd do alright.

Teams don't have to spend all their cap i think at least 90% of it must be spent in any given year - I am only assuming that if a team has cap money unspent they can carry that forward and use it the next year or subsequent years

i,e cap 9.5 mill in 2020 and the team spends 8.55 mil (90% ) they have 950k to carry forward to use in the next season or subsequent seasons. i.e they would have 10.450 mill to spend in 2021

The 350k if it was approved for Boyd's rep game injury cap relief would only become available once the minimum 12 games was reached. I would assume the 350k would have to be used in this years cap and not be able to be carried forward to next year or subsequent years as that relief is for a specific purpose not part of the Cap.

I did read an article that the Chooks were looking at having Boyd's full 2021 salary exempt from the cap due to the retirement (if approved) but his injury was in SOO game 1 which was on the 4th November 2020.

The salary cap operates from 1 November to 31 October for each season - so Boyd's injury was in this years/seasons cap year so they would not be able to have it exempted from the cap only his 2022 and 2023 salary.

Negative, teams can not carry over their salary to the next years. They can only forward load contracts.
The reason being is a team could underspend by say 400k for 4 years straight and then have a 1.6million dollar advantage in the 5th year.

So there-fore if you have any cap space left you would be extending someone’s contract etc with it forward loaded.

Do you have a link for the Cap as i can't see any info on unused cap only 90% needs to be spent. In the AFL/NFL for an example unused cap can be carried forward - NRL copies most things the AFL does

Lol Rod Tidwell. You funny.
Flanagan could kick goals too.

We are talking about the same fella ....."Fumbles" Oates??? Im not saying hes a bad playet but when he gets under a bomb the Broncos supporters feel like...well the same as we feel when Ikavalu is lining up to catch one!!

Surely this talk about Toops being not wanted is bullshit. Next year he becomes a 10 year Rooster, barring injury he will play 200 games this year....& he is only 14 behind SKD for the most number of tries in Roosters history. Add 3 premierships, NSW & Australian Rep & most importantly his last 4 years have been phenomenal - he deserves a 2 year contract minimum & recognition as being one of the greatest wingers to ever wear the red white & blue

uncle nick also said he will honour the rest of Boyd’s 1.5million dollar contract, is that exempt from the cap and who pays it if it is?

probably the most polar opposite statement that could be made about tupou. not sure who wouldnt love him

[Spirit of 66]

Yes, it is (assuming the NRL agree that it is a legitimate injury that has led to his retirement). The club pays. It can afford it.

[Serenader]

This year he is not cap exempt. His remaining 2 years will be exempt from the cap, although he will receive his money.

Tupou seems to be out of favour at the Roosters.

they've just gone to each club's roster and targeted people who are off contract regardless

I think that's why you can seek exemptions and the like though, right?

Souffs trick was that they got GI and S-Burgess off their books by 'medically retiring' them ($1m each) so they could sign a heap of players in those years. They then hired them on the same wage to do random, non-specific, auxiliary roles (which you've gotta think musta been part of their handshake agreement for both to head to a GP and be like 'can you sign this cert saying I've sustained chronic injuries throughout my career and in your opinion playing a professional contact sport won't help them long-term?' [same can be said about any fukking NRL player]).

Boyd's salary will work like that... we'll wipe what, ~$800k a year off our books? However, Friend and B-Moz were year-by-year so we won't clear any existing commitments. Meh. I'd say our accountants woulda factored that in though (and we might get some sorta exemption for 2022 since there were 3 players who had to retire).

That's my figuring at least :P
