If we have this much money spare, should we have kept Gagai?
Not for 800 a year for a winger

Gagai probably killed off his Knights career by playing so well for Queensland.
After that it became very clear that he had been phoning it in for years at the Knights.
Saying he phoned it in is a bit harsh, he always put in but at times i think he tried too hard to make things happen and that led to alot of errors. That and he can't tackleGagai probably killed off his Knights career by playing so well for Queensland.

Not latelyspending money is never too hard.
spending it well seems to be a real problem for us though.
Still fuming about this.Phoned it in and still got player of the year in 2016.

Come on mate, building a good roster that gels takes time and money. Getting value out of the cap is one of the keys to winning premierships. Saying that we have been underspending is a bit silly especially considering how horrible our cap was before Brown & Mooney got here.Cap space doesn't win football games. Underspending every year achieves nothing.

It's the truth though. They were way under this year apparently. Projected to be way under again in 2018.
But this is a total non-issue because there is zero benefit in being under the cap again in 2019. If they miss out on the marquees for 2018 just front load and get some godfather offers ready for origin players in 2019. We won't be a completely embarrassment on-field which has got to help too.
Being forced to spend and pay overs for the sake of it is ridiculous and undermines the strategy that Brown and Mooney have been working on.
Phil Gardner's comments in the Herald seem bang on and have my confidence that they'll do the right thing by the club in regards to managing the salary cap. Good to see he acknowledge Mooney had done a great job up until now as well.
