3x what their paying him? I very much doubt that unless their paying him peanuts

On FM it says he's on 2,000 pounds p/w. Roughly 5,000 aus $ a week x 52 = 260,000 a year. Cant see us paying him that. Its a massive chunk of the wage budget, unless he's being counted as marquee?

Also worrying that people say he's returning 'home', when NZ isnt exactly home for him.


dude tbh i think we r dreaming slightly if we think we r going to ign him under the cap, i expect marquee status for him, and why not? the chances of getting a big name who's actually worth it are so slim, i'd rather have someon elike porter, who's still got a heck of a lot of game in him.

and also, i wouldn't worry, would they separate the diff between aus and nz on that forum? they are probably going on that he's going to an 'aus' league club
