Quote ="Nozzy"That's assuming that he is on 2 grand a week. Not sure we can fully trust a 'rumour' heard by a fax fan about the financial details for a player that is still in Australia and hasn't even been announced as signed yet. I would expect Moi Moi (if he has signed for us) to be on a similar wage to our other top forwards. Possibly a bit more as a 'big name'. Certainly not 104k a year

He was on $300k a year at Parra plus other endorsements. Had coaching and other options open to him, so doubt he will travel to the other side of the world for minimum wage. Most high profile Aussies who travel to play in RL in the UK openly admit they do so for the money. Two grand a week sounds about right for someone of Moi Moi's profile.
Just an aside, a Parra fan posted a couple of years ago that they had named their cat "Fui Fui Meow Meow". Made me smile. If he does sign for Leigh, just hope he doesn't end up being a pussycat.
