This time of year is always crazy when it comes to the market and potential player movement, but this year has been especially insane.
Some of the money on offer is ridiculous, but the most outrageous talk in the media to date may very well be the talk of the Wests Tigers "Big Four".
It has set tongues wagging, with many agreeing that, with all due respect to the likes of Moses and Brooks, they likely wouldn't be a "Big Four" at many other clubs.
For fun, we have ranked each team's "Big Four". There is no set criteria here, and the players listed below aren't necessarily the best four players in the squad, but in my mind, make up their club's supposed "Big Four".
North Queensland Cowboys
Johnathan Thurston, Jason Taumalolo, Michael Morgan, Matthew Scott
Johnathan Thurston is the best player of the modern era. I never saw Lockyer nor Johns in their prime (at an age I could fully appreciate their talents anyways) but Thurston is the best player I've ever seen.
Jason Taumalolo is the most damaging player in the game. He could very well have his second Dally M medal by October.
Michael Morgan's transition into the halves has made a brilliant player ever more dangerous.
Matt Scott, although winding down towards the final years of his career, is still one of the best props in the game. I am glad he will finish his career with the Cowboys. He has earned every wrap he receives.
