Good points. Garth is certainly the main one to blame for our salary cap and roster nightmare. With a lot of our dud signings Hayne, Taylor, Cartwright I feel they were rush of blood signings without anyone at the club saying “don’t be a ********, lets think about this first”. Especially in terms of the money.

I feel bad about Henry, I have no regrets about being part of the Cartwright and Brennan lynchings but with King Henry I was very wrong.
