i think letting fringe players go was inevitable really. the club have lost a lot of money in the last few months and need to make savings. it will be the same at all other clubs, and there will be quite a few worse off than us - the clubs who have barely been surviving before the pandemic will be the first to surface with problems.
regarding toronto, they haven't folded and plan to play in the 2021 season so how does that affect their current squad - i know SBW is being sought after in the NRL but they have said it would just be a short term deal till the end of this campaign so will he return to toronto in 2021 if they indeed do play on? will this be the case for their other players too?
regarding signings i think the club might be waiting to see if other clubs are going to be forced into releasing some big earners - particularly if there are any relictant to accept reduced terms
