In 2000 I think the Pearman era, in one of our early financial problems in super league, didn't we have a similar problem balancing the books? We decided to cut all players over a certain age I think. Salford could end up doing something similar.

Though I agree they could do a lot worse than employ him.

At the risk of being accused of splitting hairs, I never said he was there to help them...I said there was nobody better to sort it. Salford may well not see his intervention as helping.

I don’t think that’s the same circumstances.

If memory serves we got put into administration because we had a big shortfall. I think the rumour at the time was that expectation of money didn’t materialise and left us with a big hole.

Players were sold and the wage bill was stripped way back so we could finish the season. With it being part way through season I don’t suppose advancing the following years funds under relegation was possible.

That's not what is happening here though.
They are not in administration.
The RFL have agreed to an advance but are reviewing their finances to see if everything is above board....and what criteria they need to follow to meet the standard agreed for the advance.
Costs savings don't have to be an overseas player.


I was merely pointing out how the RFL would deal with quota players and in what circumstances. I never said this was the situation with Salford. I would add the the quota exemption only applies once.

Their biggest financial outlay will be their overseas quota players….

I think if Salford are in special measures any player they sell won’t be subject to quota space? Along with some cap space possibly left…

If so I think Esan Marsters would be an excellent signing for Trinity and can play Centre/wing aswell as adding some real size to the back line a bit like Tupou in stature and build plus only 28 years old with NRL and international experience….



Nope this rule only kicks in if administration or go bust am led to believe
