Recruitment and Retention for 2027

Agree. What if it's more than 1 mil?
To stay? i think 1 mil would be close to what others offer. You'd like to think he would stay for slightly less. So 1mil, if others are offering 1.2.

Good environment, playing good football, competitive. And we gave some of these a chance, when other clubs told them to go. Dragons said to Bostock he wasnt good enough, id like to think a guy like that would stay for a little less.

Ok. I'm on the fence with this one. Big fan of Herbie but for 1 mil a season? I honestly don't know. But not more than 1 mil.
 
The signing of Williams will come to haunt the Dolphins with their retentions of other players.

Knowles should be considered disposable after 2027 in order to keep the others.

Only player currently signed for 2029 is Pouniu.

Woolf will need to back his pathways players soon because the strength of the great coaches and great clubs like Penrith/Cleary and before their decline Melbourne/Bellamy always been their confidence in blooding players and making big decisions. Robinson at Roosters very good at using pathways but Politis operates at a cap that makes PNG advantages look like a disadvantage.
fresh blood will come in when they ready we three years in after been a qld cup side going take lot longer than three years to blood players ready for nrl

just look at how many were retained from there qld cup at the start of there nrl journey
as for Williams i doubt it makes a dent in the money hes on , was said in one of the media podcasts the figure he was on is no where near what they say and no where near the overs kodi took


as one of the media guys said today if nick p wants herbie he woulda been gone there ( theres no f...king round in tht club)

and end the day look atn the amount player panthers lost they built up cant keep them all will happen to us too

and the 2nd thing they said is none of the players we have or could get from outside in other clubs would be anywhere as good or on as much
