Can you go and post that on the Salford Forums too, because we seem to be overwhelmed with bell-ends. Predominantly from Castleford and Warrington who are all Salford experts/Legal eagles/RL Gods/Psychics.

For those questioning salary cap regs heres a little light reading.My bet would be that Wigan have got plenty of space in their cap especially as most of their squad is homegrown for which you get more allowance. Us Salford fans have become experts on this subject and we are always willing to spread the benefits of our wisdom. All i say is well done to Wigan for bringing a talent back to our game.Long may it continue,Oh and can we keep Logan please. http://www.therfl.co.uk/the-rfl/rules/i ... section=E1

As such the only benefit Wigan can have for the amount of homegrown players is the fact that players serving over 10 years have an allowance of £50,000 combined off cap (that is if you have 2 players served over 10 years, 25k of each counts of the cap etc)

Ah the return of one of SL's biggest Grubs!

And the return of a big name back to RL. A good bit or PR for the sport. Or would you rather the big names stay in RU?

Very out of character for an RL fan to look for a negative angle on a good news story.

No one is saying he isn't a big name. They are saying he is a grub.

If the game dies as a pro-sport, you can hold up that document as the reason why. Complete abdication of responsibility for anything.
