| OUT:
Riddell
Phelps
Bailey
Feka (who was on mega bucks)
4 out, 3 in. Phelps + Bailey weren't on massive money anymore but add the wages together and it'll no doubt be decent.
After that Gleeson left, giving us the space needed to add Cross a few weeks ago.

| based on the caps
average SL squad wage £80,000
average NRL squad wage £135,000
If it helps you to think that Finch and Hoffman are over here for the kind of money they could get as an average squad player in NRL then please do that. Just sayin'

Nail on the head, but that would require a certain number of brain cells. Either way without any details it's all speculation based on nothing more than having muppet tendencies.

Fine. They probably are over here for an average NRL wage. They ain't gonna be over here for the superstar money that Barrett, Feka etc were paid.

Isn't the average SL wage £66,000?
1,650,000/25 = 66,000

| Quote: LeedsPokerGuru "Just a quick question on the habitual salary cap cheats.
Anyone have any idea how much spare cap space they had to pick up Hoffman and Finch from fellow cap cheats Melbourne Storm??
Considering the NRL cap is £2.7m ($4.3m AUD),the UK cap is £1.6m as you know, and that the Storm were already running over that it must be lucky that Wigan had sufficient space and that Hoffman and storm lynchpin Finch were willing to take (what logically must be a pay cut no?) to sign for the Warriors.
Maybe they just asked Hansen, Tomkins and co to take another salary deferment or have they learned lessons from passed cheating and have the current champions decided keep around a spare 20% of the cap free for eventualities leading into this season.
thoughts?'"
In - Finch, Hoffman, Lima, Hock (half way through season), Cross (near end of season)
Out - Phelps, Riddell, Bailey, Palea'aesina, Ainscough, Holland, Thornley, Veivers, Gleeson (after 3 games)
On Loan/Dual Reg - Pryce, Mellor, Crosby, L. Tomkins, Davies, Hughes

Agreed but what we will see at Wigan is quality players leave as there is only so much pie to go around(sorry couldn't help myself) having lots of good kids and winning things brings tough calls on how best to split the cap. Whilst most will want to be loyal the lure for better wedge and game time down under or at other sl clubs will will see a few leave the first team squad and some kids will bypass the Wigan first team all together.
That's the flip side of the cap.
