It can easily be cheated but it would be very difficult for the rfl to pick up, so if it hasn't been caught at the time of signings then it is unlikely to be caught. Not saying Wigan are cheating here though.

| 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?'"
Surely if you want to discuss this sensibly, you should also mention/consider what players left or perhaps signed reduced deals?
It wasn't long ago since Leeds "had to be" cheating the salary cap - it goes with being the best side in the comp, other fans can't understand how there can possibly be a team better than theirs. |

Cap space is not a problem here for Wigan.

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.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

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'
