More like he was shite and was taking up a roster spot.

Yeah it makes sense, we lose Fusitua, Jamayne Tounua-Brown and Evans to balance the signings of Joey Manu, Niukore and Metcalf for next year 😂

As a fan I can't allow myself to think we are a bottom 4 side or else what is the point. We have to be hopeful that the players we have a good enough to push for the top 8. However, realistically and based on previous years of watching the Warriors disappoint I reckon we are anywhere from 7 - 14 (covers a lot of spots I know).
I would be happy with one of the above 3 for next year and two of the above for 2023. Anything more than that is a huge bonus.

Absolutely. A lot of people think the contract situation is "Players are not allowed to negotiate with other clubs until November 1 of the last year of their current deal", but it's actually that "Players are not allowed to sign a contract with another club until November 1 of the last year of their current deal."
So Frei and Ale will either be goneski as of November 1 or still negotiating with the Warriors and/or other clubs as at November 1...

How the fark could we be in cap trouble?
Addin Fonua-Blake and Harris both around $800,000 then who?
Shaun Johnson and Walsh are our 2 strike players and they’re on less than a mil combined.
The only way that could be true is if we have a couple of big dollar players lined up.

I don't think we should put much in the cap trouble statement from the Mole. Could just be a journo trying to sound like he knows what's going on and adding context to something.
He might have a contact within the club now seeing as they are a bit closer at the moment. One advantage when we were home in Auckland and his source Elliott was gone we could dismiss a lot of his stuff.
Jamayne Tounua-Brown moving to the Cowboys might be a good fit as Payten did get more out of him in 2020 than Brown did in 2021.

Joey Manu November 1. We need to have 1 million available if he decides to say yes . I don't like waiting for a year for players. Too much can change, like we saw with Toby Rudolph.
Jamayne Tounua-Brown being released for salary cap reasons. Jamayne Tounua-Brown? Who has to replaced by someone on close to similar wage.....lol no.
That would be like releasing Aitken because he passes too much.
Pure fiction.

A couple of players I wouldnt mind seeing upgraded to main contracts are the Fijian winger Ratuva and Preston Riki.
I know Riki is listed as a prop but he reminds me more of a rangy backrower with good hands and feet like Kikau.I don't know what his work rates like but hes young and got a real raw boned potential about him.
They'd both be cheap upgrades and I'd get him on board asap because they'll be some old codger coach talking to Dolphin Riki right at this moment.

My guess is Pos is using cap restraint as a negotiating tool

Well if it is cap related the article says " we couldn't offer him a deal past 2022" so that means there's some big money going to be tied up with an incoming player one thinks
Is something big brewing for November 1st? (Metcalf, Manu, Niukore) possibly???

All I want to know it who the Fook is this guy and why he’s constantly in our recruitment chat
My concern with Tohu Harris is he seems to be taking concussion shots a bit too regularly and im worried that will get worse as times go by, I hope im wrong as he is a great player and now we have a decent couple of props it would be nice to see him ranging wide rather than taking the tough hit ups he has been forced to do this year

it would be nice, but what if there isnt? Do we have enough players in the team to last the year, or is it finally time for NB to bring up all those magic juniors that everyone keeps talking about?

Its imo. His best position
He will play 13. From now on my guess is
Hopefully his ball playing is on point the game is trending back to the old style 13.
