all players should be on the same wage through out the league, and make the rest up in bonuses for the win,
that could be open to each club to decide what they wanted to pay, i.e. win, amount of tries, goals, tackling, obvious the more you do the more your pocket grows,
takes all the arguing out of he's on more than from the start.

As much as Arthur Scargill may like the concept, I doubt David Howes et al would!

Long was a very good player hes had his day,i dont think hull have made the right decision.
His body is wrecked imo, be surprised to see him play much rugby at hull due to nigglin injurys.

Arthur wasn't for the bonus scheme in fact always said it would put man against man, bit like the negotiated wages of today

You from a mining family?

twelve years at nostell colliery and yes father, grandfather, uncles too

you might of know my grandad Herbert think that's were he was a deputy

I will view you in a different light now

Step backwards signing long. Would rather have southernwood.

The Mole?

is that good or bad ?

Maybe he means with a Davy Lamp

only in wakefields dreams would they be able to sign someone like long

you can come with some cracking lines

Yeah, you know what we could do with - a ball handling prop with a good kicking game and offload.

Any suggestions?

And only a dick cant quote someone - now you know where the door is.

you should never mock the inflicted but i will let it go

Good
