Perhaps we have had to release some to ensure we come in under the salary cap? Or at least was infuenced by that to give us wiggle room when we might need injury cover at the business end of the season?

If we are to use an injury dispensation it would be far better to do so towards the end of the season when it matters. I am still puzzled why we let Smith go unless we had no idea Brink was off. Especially with the amount of rugby Van Staden and Wiese have had.....not to mention a suspension not being out of the blue. Dual registration would have made sense. I hope we can sign someone like Brink for next season.

Do players get win bonuses? If they do then the club hierarchy may have been worried about going over the cap by repeatedly winning?
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

Max Lahiff is playing both sides now,32 but perhaps a tickover option? What’s his contract status like?

Rarely fit either.
To win is not as important as playing with style!

John Paul Jones is probably a better scrummager than PDJ
