Ultimate 17

[Jakester1288]

Post your Ultimate Rugby League 17. It must be under the salary cap. Fire away.

 

[Simon]

how is it possible to be under the salary cap when we dont know what players are worth?

 

[Simon]

Anyway had a crack at picking a team that would be almost under the cap. Wanted to go for a clever halfback, creative hooker, strong fullback, some workhorses in the pack as well as some ball players and backs that are natural tryscorers and some decent defenders. Think this would be a solid team.

Not sure if that team's under the salary cap......

 

[Burgey]

Not sure if that team's under the salary cap......

Quietly confident it isn't actually.

Assuming players from the past 5 years or so:

Minichello
Hayne
Gasnier
Fittler
Tiquiri
Lockyer
Johns
Menzies
SBW
Mason
Price
Buderus
Webke
Res: Petro; Cameron Smith; Inglis; Fui Fui Moi Moi.

Given half of them are retired and therefore not being paid ATM, that team will make it under the cap easily.

 

[Prince EWS]

Not sure if that team's under the salary cap......

Honestly, **** the salary cap for this thread. There's no way we can estimate player values.

 

[Burgey]

Yep. All we can confidently say is that SBW thinks he aint getting enough.....

Prince: do you ever get to Waves fitness centre?

Yes.

In all seriousness that team would be crap against the ULTIMATE teams that people are making.

There is no way that team would be under the cap.

 

[Johnners]

There is no way that team would be under the cap.

How would you know? Got inside gossip as to how much each of those players are worth to the club?

Aside from that, he's only named 17 players, which is a little different from the 25 odd that clubs usually try and fit under the cap.

Yep exactly. For that reason it's hard to tell if the Kangaroos would be under the cap or over.

15 Corey Patterson

So dire spelling both his first and last name wrong.

Cory Paterson is a very good player.

LOL yeh sorry knew when I wrote it that it was wrong, CBF changing it though. Which is poor on my behalf cause it ****s me when people spell names wrong in instances like this.

Yeh exactly and my other 8 players are all under 18's schoolboys on minimum wage.
I've throw Michael Monaghan the captaincy to get him to play for less and come back for England. Six or seven of the guys have taken less money as long as I give their wives jobs in the leagues club, I'm paying them $150,000 a year each to clean the floors in the pokies room once a month.
