So we are getting new team, it would seem.
Let's have a look at current contracts and who is actually signed up till 2011 (and beyond).
Reds:
Leroy Houston (2011)
Will Chambers (2011)
Ben Daley (2011)
Greg Holmes (2011)
Tahs:
Lote Tuqiri 2012
Rob Horne 2011
Timana Tahu 2011
Lachlan Turner 2011
Dan Palmer 2011
Phil Waugh 2011
Luke Burgess 2011
Drew Mitchell 2011
Dean Mumm 2011
Josh Holmes 2011
Brums:
Adam Ashley-Cooper 2011
Stephen Moore 2011
Matt Giteau 2011
Ben Alexander 2011
Huia Edmonds 2011
Tryone Smith 2011
Josh Valentine 2011
George Smith 2011
Force:
Sam Wykes 2011
Ryan Cross 2011
Matt Hodgson 2011
Tom Hockings 2011
Richard Stanford 2011
Nick Cummins 2011
Pek Cowan 2011
Brett Sheehan 2011
Tim Fairbrother 2011
Richard Brown 2011
So, the Reds are up the shit at the moment. They need to get their players (and new players) signed pronto. The additional new team I assume will be announced this week, some sort of quick tender process (of which Melbourne will win) and then the coach will be appointed and they will start signing. The Reds have to get into that player market now.
