Leeds Sign Another

Surely Leeds will go over the salary keep this year. They have added, Clinton Toopi, Jamie Thackray to their squads and have Brent Webbe and Leuleui a pro for next year.
They must be over the budget.

Next year's signings don't become relevant to next year, even if they are signed now, and they are presumably taking some players off their roster to accommodate these new players (eg. Mathers going to Gold Coast).

fraggle has a good point mathers and walker already leaving, leeds only usualy sign one player when another is leaving.
in my opinion leuleui is replacing a forward mabe peacock as he has had a shocking year. it could make sense for him to replace paul anderson at saints. there again they have never replaced wardy
oh yeah just remembered chris feather is a pack man leaving leeds

I dont think I have seen Kyle Leuleui play. What is he like as a player?

Leeds are letting the injury plagued O'Neil go too.

Is it Kyle or Kylie?

She's certainly beefed up a bit since her cancer operation, doesn't look anything like the car mechanic who married Jason Donovon in Neighbours back whenever it was (the shame of admitting I used to watch such rubbish when I was a lazy student skiving off from lectures...)

I got a bit caught up in the moment. I understand that the 2007 squad and earnings only get revised in the 2008 season. So this years spendings get revised next year.
I know that toopi for walker, webbe for mathers, leuleui for feather, thakray for ?

Not sure what you mean. Squads and earnings are constantly being revised.
If you mean any penalties are only applied in the following season, yes, that has to be true since the total spend can't be known until the season ends.
