Don't think we can keep Hurrell unless it's marquee again.
I'd offer him that, or someone wise will. He's been top draw most of time for us.....

This is my worry i bet a few other clubs like Salford/Wakey/Hudds would take Hurrell as Marquee

Marquee is about how much of a players salary counts against the cap, not what you pay them. I believe the "cap" that's applied for Marquee is £150k. We could pay Koni more than that and not declare him as Marquee if we had 2 players with higher earnings so we would get more cap benefit.

Yeah well explained. my point being though, is Koni is unlikely to accept less than what he is on now. Been in SL dream team 2 years running. Not sure how people seem to think we can keep him on a lesser contract.......

Salford and Wakey’s idea of a marquee signing is a large tent.

Perhaps. The mechanism of Marquee is clear for me, I just couldn't recall the figures. Old age...
