If we keep Anasta which of the off contract players are you willing to let go

[fletch]

Spare a minute for Roosters management they are in a no win situation, Keep Braith and have to let 2 or 3 of our most promising youngsters go.

Would be interested in the Chookpens opinion who should let go first to keep Braith.

Hard question, this year will tell the story.Ask me in 6 months

Great question. I will cop abuse for this but I would let FPN go.

[Guest]

i chose mini, but preferably none

[Guest]

I chose Mini also ahead of FPN.

I think in the heat of the moment a lot of Roosters supporters have forgotten how hard it is for management to juggle the salary cap, it is easy to sit back and be arm chair experts but I know I found it really hard to let anyone go.

for me the 3 we must keep at all costs are:

Kennedy
SKD
Leilua

if I had to choose who to let go it would be in this order:

Anasta
FPN
Linnett
Ryles
Mini
Masoe
Kennedy
Leilua
SKD

FPN is destined to play in the back-row. that's one area we don't need. We have heaps coming through that I reckon will be better.

Ryles is the most expendable of the list IMO.

Yep I agree. He is a bloody good player but if someone had to go I would choose him. He seems too light to really play in the front row since he lost weight and I think there are better options for the back row. He could certainly get good dollars elsewhere.

[The Pelican]

For me it would have to be Ryles. I know he performed well for us this season but he'll be 32-33 after this season and we have a plethora of players who can play in the front row e.g Myles, Masoe, Kennedy, Conn, Arona, JWH, FPN and even Tasi could play a bit of FR.

Ryles
Piggy
Mini
FPN

[Rooster_6]

Take a risk, back end his deal and hope that with the new TV rights deal there's an almost inevitable salary cap rise.

[Vasco]

If I had to choose now...in order it would be:

Ryles
Mini
Linnett

i chose mini, but preferably none

Mini is on the 200k veteran exemption.
He is costing us sweet F all...
Pick another option if the club is looking to free up cap space...

[Guest]

Where is the none of the above option?
