I've never said it's unfair. For the record I'd remove the cap completely or massively change it to allow home produced players to stay off cap. We need more stars in the competition and we're not going to do that by catering for the little clubs.

Bless......and what role have you played exactly in St.Helens not being one of those little clubs.

Regardless of the original intentions, it turns out that GI has come over for a holiday after all.

Why, what’s happened now? Has he gone to Rhyl for a week? He may find out the newly-built beach resort in the brochure doesn’t quite live up to the artist’s impression.

Whilst I'm all for getting more big names into Super League, this will appear very dubious to a lot of people. How on earth do you fit Ratchford, Inglis, Williams, Widdop, Austin, Clark, Hill, Cooper, King and Currie on the same salary cap?

Sure, but 'appearing dubious' to people with no information or evidence counts for jack poop, like the Trump supporters who moan that the voting machines were rigged.

Did you ever question whether Saints were legit when they had Cunningham, Sculthorpe, Wellens, Long, Pryce, Lyon, Cayless, Meli, Talau, Anderson (Paul and Vinnie), Gilmour, Hooper, Gardner, Wilkin, all in the same squad. I bet you were all told they were on 'modest deals' because they came through Saints Academy...

Maybe one day the salary cap police will uncover decades of wrongdoing and Saints and Wire will have all the Grand Finals they won whilst breaking the cap scrubbed from the record books.

Salford have confirmed Lussick left. Wonder if that means Akauola goes sinner rather than later.

Arrogance at it's very worst.

You've done very well if you've managed to fit George Williams in on Sita Akuola's contract.

If you know what salaries each and every player is on, why aren't you troubling the RFL with this, instead of a Warrington supporters chat board?

Re: Sita Akauola to Salford. : Thu Jul 08, 2021 1:26 pm  

If we were prepared to cheat the salary cap there would hardly be talk about Hill leaving or trying to move Austin etc etc. Saddened is only doing what Saddened does, stir it up on here and then scuttle off to Redvee claiming “there are strong rumours on the Wire site that Sita’s salary will cover Williams’ salary”. The fact that he is the source of the rumour and that it is all poop he forgets to mention..
