I can't remember who was off contract last year. I'm sure somebody will know!
As I said earlier, I actually see a lot of similarities between us and the Warriors. They had, and still have, real problems attracting 'top tier' players and for most of the time had to content themselves with picking up players that nobody else wanted, or were getting close to the end of their careers. They also wasted cash signing a few lemons too!
I don't think the current uncertainty is helping, but I do think the thought of physically moving to New Zealand isn't attractive to a lot of Aussie players (and maybe even players from further afield). I don't think it's as cut and dried as them worrying about our money situation.
I also hope the Club are targetting decent players. Hopefully once the financials are sorted, that will be one less obstacle to recruiting the right people
