You're not making sense - what do you mean?

That is the transfer fee, but it's still a stupid amount of money for an unproven player playing at a small club with no pressure on him. Salford offered him the chance to be the highest payed player in the clubs history so I don't know how wire are fitting him in along with, Morely, Carvell, Briers, King, Rauhihi, Hicks, Monaghan, and the Andersons.

Why you bothering us with that again. This is currently a Wembley site! The new Wembley site at that not the last century Wembley site. We'll send you some pictures!!

How do you fit all your squad under the £1.65m salary cap?

Briers, Morley, Carvell, Monaghan, Hicks, King, Higham, Westwood, Anderson x2, Clarke

Add to that Myler who turned down a contract to become salfords highest ever earner and i just dont know how you can fit them all under the cap.

You out bid wigan for all 3 of Carvell, Morley and King and Wigan simply couldnt complete with the wages you were paying these 3.

I Think we will get rid of Rauhihih, Carney aand Johnson

Other than Rauhihi, they are on peanuts.

Stop talking out of your hoop - Johnson is certainly on top-whack, that's what persuaded him to jump ship from the Bulls. Deary me today.....

Don't know where they got that info from but I believe we haven't paid £300k for him...

Johnson will not be on peanuts!

Mate, you'll have to wait for SEB or someone who knows about this to come onto the Forum - it's wheyyyy beyond me.................

this deal was done ages ago and 300k is wildly off the mark,as are some peoples guesstimates of our players wages,pack it in,it's boring.

300K......is that FACT?

Some of Briers' wage is off the cap due to testimonial service, Rauhihi's on peanuts, King and Monas arent on as much as some would have you believe either, neither are the Andersons, dont forget we held Vinnie out a long time.
Myler could possibly be on less here than he would have been at salford

rauhihi is not on peanuts.

He will be compared to his initial contract when he joined the club. If he's not then it's poor management as he was then supposedly one of the NRLs best props, as of signing for another year last year, he was an average clubman

At the risk of repeating myself, but surely there aren't too many players you'd expect to be earning over £50k per annum. If you were to just estimate a squad of 20 players on a mean of 50k, that's only £1m.

Note that I said a mean of £50k, mean - if you remember from school - being the average when all is summed up and dived by 20, it leaves room for some young bucks/sqaud players to be on circa £20k and other 'big earners' to be on £70k +

Also, what is this pish posh about being Salford's highest ever paid player? How much does that equate to? I doubt they'll have had six figure sums out for too many players.

And if I were in a glass house, I wouldn't be worried about stones being thrown at other houses tbh.

Also on the MEN website now

no but as part of his contract we have to give him a circus elephant sized sack of them.

If big Paul is on peanuts, he has obviosly eaten them all in one go!

I wonder if the accounting staff at Warrington Wolves are aware of the salary cap - perhaps someone should alert them to this impending disaster otherwise we could fall foul of the RFL / Super League guidelines.

We ARE a bigger club.

Ok then another player on loads, so seriously how are wire fitting all this in?

I had to laugh at that.

But seriously though. Briers wage is reduced in the cap, Carney, Rah and Johnson may well be leaving us, and Monas, King & Hicks took a wage reduction with the whole image rights thing, although im not sure if that will affect their wages on the cap anyway as it was a "loophole"

Does the testimonial 50% wage reduction on the cap cover all the players? Or just one?

If it is more than one player then you have to remember that Woody is entering his testimonial year.
