Nothing coming from the Leeds camp, but wouldn't be surprised if he does come to Leeds for a year loan of souths can't get rid of some cap. Especially as NRL said they cannot use the marquee allowance for him.

Fewer metres than a Tony Clubb 40/20 attempt

It begs a bigger question - how far under the cap must we be if we could look at signing Sam Burgess without the need to ship any big earners out?

At what point does the marquee cap begin?

Presumably we have around that much free unless we were going to offload some players on loan to make room.

A marquee signing would cost £175k on the cap.

Just seen an article on sportinglife.com (sorry don't know how to link) in which GH is apparently quoted and says "we made our interest known and were ready to proceed if given encouragement to do so - but we never even made an offer and we just had a watching brief"

Rabbitohs Members have had an Email stating Sam Burgess has signed a 2 year deal (2016-201icon_cool.gif so looks like he isn't coming anywhere near us.

Quite disappointed after all the Hype.

My theory. Sam has taken a Wage Cut to return to Sydney. If a player wants to go somewhere that badly, they'll do anything to make it happen!

Sky says 3 year deal

Means we have at least 175k spare on the cap. Personally I imagine there will be no further signings. And we will go as we are

Printer is not nearly as clever as he thinks he is (nobody could be THAT clever) so I'm happy to keep it going.

" its all good publicity [sizewhen[/size you are selling season tickets." Is what Tony Soprano posted. He didn't say it was for the purpose of selling season tickets. He said it was good publicity [iwhilst[/i you're selling them.

Our resident know it all who is a mate with a marketing expert is the ONLY one who thought GH was giving the interview with the sole intention of selling season tickets.

It must be a typo in the initial Announcement. It must be 2016-2019. It's corrected to 3 year deal now.

But then....



So despite twice saying I don't think selling season tickets had anything to do it, yet another member of this board with the reading ability of Stevie Wonder is now claiming I'm the ONLY one who is thinking GH did it with the sole intention of selling season tickets.

And yet he has sly digs about other people being clever.

I can only assume you are being deliberately dense.

It almost certainly did have something to do with selling season tickets, just not the ridiculous idea that ONLY you put forth that he did it with the intention of solely and directly selling season tickets. You are the ONLY one to suggest that possibility, the ONLY one who thought that those posts were statements that GH's sole and direct intention was to sell season tickets.

Such an action could very well, very easily, and very most likely was an attempt to increase sales of season tickets (amongst other things) simply not in the narrow, scrambling, fog-knitting, ass-hatted way you have needed to define it. Which is why people have pointed out you were wrong, not to say that GH didnt do it with the sole intention of selling season tickets, but the narrow, scrambling fog-knitting, ass-hatted way you have defined 'marketing' sets up an entirely fallacious premise which misses the point by a country mile and leads you to answer a question which not only wasnt asked, but wouldnt be asked by anyone who knew even a tiny bit about it.

Just about everything you've written there is a figment of your imagination. You don't half re-read peoples posts incorrectly just so you can have a pop.

For one I've never offered a definition of marketing.
