@canefan No they don't count. Cheats.
Funny how the Roosters rorted the cap when they beat us in the final, but they didn't get stripped of that title
Speaking of rorting caps, one wonders how they've got the best players as judged by their peers:
NRL Players' Poll results reveal a changing of the guard
Cameron Smith and Craig Bellamy have lost their mantle as the NRL's best player and coach respectively.

that's hilarious!
I mentioned it earlier, but i can totally see this current Roosters side fitting under the cap.
Tedesco will be on pretty big money (but i doubt Ben Hunt shit contract money). Keary they picked up when Souths basically showed him the door. The Morris boys are too old to get big contracts. None of the other guys are rep players, and few would be on old deals that must be coming up for renewal. I doubt any forward bar maybe Cordner is on huge money, maybe JWH?
They are not overflowing with rep players any more. They've got a test prop (but a kiwi test prop), an Origin 2nd rower, and that's it up front. Radley might play Origin this year if he gets fit again and they go deep in to finals. They have a kid at halfback, Keary should play Origin, but that's not guaranteed. Tedesco obviously. But apart from injury i can't see any of their others getting a gig.

but seriously, Mitchell Pearce best halfback in the game? He's getting a good ride behind a huge Knights pack, and he's terrible for them. Just terrible. He's the new Braith Anaster for being severely overrated.

Look at all of those Warriors names getting votes over the past three years.
Kearney, Tuivasa-Scheck, Maumalo, Fusitua, Johnson, Green, Harris, Luke.
Makings of a good team...

I think you just summed up the Warriors for most of their history, but especially since Cleary left.

Maybe if you take their career at the best point. Not sure they ever played together at their peaks.

Dunno. We've had a lot of dogshit rosters.

The minor premiership winning side was the one which hurt the most. They should have won our first title
There wouldn’t have been a single flat on Castle Street with a couch left in their lounge the morning following that Grand Final, they were all burnt on the street.
It was absolute chaos, I’ll never forget it.

Dean Pay quits the Bulldogs (before they sacked him today)
That's a bit shit for a club great. Comes in to coach the worst roster in the comp. The whole club is absolutely fucked. Loses two starting players at the start of the year.
His team actually play for him, they just don't have the talent. Their cap situation is a mess (the minimum cap spend just fucks the bottom teams). The Board make bad decision after bad decision.
Who would want the job?

@mariner4life Steve Kearney?

@African-Monkey said in NRL 2020:
@ACT-Crusader Yeah, for all their dominance they only have 2 premierships under Bellamy to show for it.
3 after the 2 were stripped , in 20 years that’s still way above average

RA had a CEO who is available and could be persuaded to take her talents across to another code.
