Is said to also have signed a new contract at Barrow along with Catic.
However this ban shall certainly restrict his involvement in training, unless he finds a way of living closer.

Think its a disgrace he was not banned sooner. 21 Points!

Regarding "Brown Envelopes". Would not be surprised by Barrow or any other club doing it. If I was a Chairman and it meant keeping/signing an extra matchwinner I would seriously look at doing it. How is the RFL going to check it? Its one reason I do not agree with a closed salary cap as it is as there are so many ways it can be broken. Is it cheating? Yes. But Morals in society went out the window years ago.

Let's keep talk of illegal payments out of this, please. None of you know whether it's true or not, and such talk can be libelous.

Thing is LBC, you can do it legit!!
Take for instance a purely hypothetical scenario! Fev sign a cracking centre wanting 30k full time contract! Fev agree a deal of 15k - the other 15k is paid by a community trust. Legal, legit and within the RFL's rules and only 15k is counted within the cap! Cap circumvented, tax paid in full! No illegalities. Sorted.

Now I'm not saying Dez did or didn't have 'private arrangement's' with any player. But there are ways to get around it legit that negates the need for a visit to WH smiths for A4 envelopes unless the intention is to avoid troubling those splendid chaps at HMR&C!

and of course, I'm not for one minute suggesting that is the case!!!!!

sorry TS - just posted after you! Delete if it transgresses!

Some people on here would have you believe he is on more. So a Champ 1 team player is on more money combined than the cureent England half backs combined? I really doubt it.Some people would be surprised how averagely RL players are paid.
