NRL: Souths are adamant the news of Damien Cook leaving the Rabbitohs will not distract them as they look to take on Manly.
South Sydney interim coach Ben Hornby says Damien Cook ’s decision to sign with the Dragons is one of the harsh realities of the NRL salary cap , but he is very confident that young gun Peter Mamouzelos has what it takes to step up as the club’s long-term hooker .
“The recruitment squad have got their job and they’re looking forward to next year, but I’m looking to right now. Hornby has spoken with Cook about his decision to leave, with the Rabbitohs unable to offer the multi-year security that the Dragons were prepared to give him.“That’s the tough part about rugby league at the moment. The reality is that the salary cap is what it is so you have to try to fit the pieces in as best you can,” he said.
