I still don't think it'll attract the best players - just the money hungry ones. The best ones in the NRL won't come over here as they won't be able to play for Aus or Origin. Also if the think about it you're not going to spend the 'marquee' money on anything other than positions 1,6,7,9 or a really special forward. All it'll help with it to keep players from disappearing over to the NRL.

You'd need to have a cap on what can be spent on the marquee player to stop clubs overspending too.

The RFL need to think very carefully about how they work this, because if they are willing to let clubs spend on a player over the cap why not just increase the cap? Give clubs the opportunity to either have a marquee player or increased cap?

Have a look at Salford u15 and U16 squad. They have recruited a lot from Wigan and Saints traditional amateur clubs, including Dmya Hanley.

On what evidence do you put clubs like Salford and Cas as teams that don't develop their own players and will just make big signings.

I know we hear every year about how many great young players are coming through Warrington but how many have we produced that are better than Ratchford?

What about Shenton or Westerman? Do Warrington produce players as good as these?

What about marquee signings who has made more marquee signings us or them?

Whats more likely to happen with any marquee signing rule is that a smaller club will produce a good young player and then moneybags Warrington will come and pick him up, like we did with Westwood, Atkins, Ratchford, Myler, Grix (even Harrison as a youngster)

I think we need one after tonights performance.
Any position, doesnt matter, we were pretty much awful in every shirt number except 8 and 12.

come on Marwan get this rule pushed through by the weekend.

But we buy one then Saints buy one and you end up no better off.???

Luke Walsh and Garry Wheeler hardly constitute marquee signings and they played us off the park.
