No i am saying that most clubs have flat structures, so is easy to work out how much they are spending, like Saints snd Wigan.

Sone club like warribgton dont gave flat structures and pay prrmium for half their team , keavibg the other half under represented forctslent.

You calk this breaching the cap, but it is just different ways of running the cap.

Sorry, you must be confusing me with someone else. I have never mentioned breaching the cap.

Hence the word 'structure'. So you're saying you have high earners and low earners. What exactly is your point then? How exactly does it differ from here at Wigan for example? Do you think when the club negotiates with, say, Walmsley that they pick a salary out if the air depending on which way the wind is blowing or do the they know roughly what he's worth on the open market and expect to pay something in that vicinity?

Similarly, when Walmsley's agent goes into those same negotiations do you think he knows his worth on the open market or not? Do you then think he then goes in thinking "I need to get the worst possible deal here" or is he attempting to get the best deal based on the knowledge of that market worth?

Simple answer really unless you think Saints are somehow a special case that is exempt from the usual job market economics.

If I was Walmesley or his agent I'd be asking for double what I'm on now!!!
They're pants without him

Ah! But it's a privilege to play for Saints so he does it for 50p and all the crisps he can eat

a flat wage structure isnt everyone on the same wage lol.

Dodd is new to the starting line up, he is in transition.

Do you mean a capped wage structure?

No, the RL flat structures are pretty simple, senior level, normal level and junior level and within those people generally earn very similar amounts.

Flat sage structures aren't where everyone earns the same, but similar for their grade.

Saints and Wigan probably do this, whereas Warrington seem to have an open structure.

How do you know Wigan and Saints have this supposed structure?

How do you know Warrington don’t?

Care to elaborate for Saints or Wigan?

What are the 3 structures?
What is the median?
What is the range?
What players in each?

He will know though his contacts, maybe not exactly but he'll be pretty close.
