| Quote cheekydiddles="cheekydiddles"I realise that, But only a maximum of two can count for that dispensation which is what I was getting at and the fact TWP as well as having no quota spots to bring Hastings in, also have 2 players already (reportedly) taking up the marquee dispensation'" which is correct, they have the highest paid centre in rugby league in Ricky Leutele and then Sonny Bill Williams.

Absolutely correct. I believe Toronto will still pull off another big signing but it's likely going to be somebody from Rugby Union so that the salary can be exempt for the first year like Warrington did with Burrell

| Are TWP able to class SBW as off cap due to signing from Union, leaving 2 marquee spots, 1 sounds like leutele and 1 spare for Hastings?
Be surprised if Hastings went anywhere else in England than wigan, could Catalan be an option? Him and Maloney with Tomkins at FB would be a top set of pivots, albeit they might all want their own ball to play with.

I imagine that SBW will fall under the returning talent pool dispensation as he hasn't played league in the past 5 years but did previously. Half of his salary in the first year is exempt. He's getting paid such a crazy amount of money that even with the dispensation he would still be marquee 100 percent. As it's also been said Leutele is the highest paid centre in the world so he will also be marquee to fit into the cap. I can't see how they could physically fit another big name player into the cap without it being somebody from Union with the cap exempt. As for Hastings... I can't imagine that super league would allow him to opt out of a contract with Wigan to join another super league club. There may be a break clause in there for an NRL club which is much more likely

| There is no chance that Toronto can make another big signing this year unless they sack off half the squad. I'm more interested who we are going after. I am told that we are looking for another player and we are meeting individuals back in OZ. Who this one player is I do not know but fingers crossed another player will soon be joining us. This person wont give a name but he has been 100% correct this year with players joining us.Does anyone have any ideas.

| Boyd would be a risk. His shoulder is meant to be frigged, and he can't do big minutes, which will become an issue with the number of interchanges being reduced

| Random paper talk suggesting Lui is unhappy with the pressure at Leeds and wants to leave meaning we are free to sign Hastings who wants to come to us.
Way too many ifs and buts in there for me but that's what is out there.

Where on Earth did you hear this? I have seen nothing of the sort, Hastings doesn’t want to come hear, he turned us down!

Hastings not homesick
Reports that Jackson Hastings is homesick are wide of the mark, with speculation Down Under that he is unhappy with certain terms of his Wigan Warriors contract.
An immediate move to the NRL seems unlikely with talk he may even end up at another Super League club. Leeds Rhinos, who he turned down to sign for Wigan, have expressed a desire to add a marquee player while Hastings posted a picture on his instagram account last week wearing a Toronto Wolfpack cap.
Leeds want marquee man
With Luke Gale already in for 2020, any move for Jackson Hastings would mean shifting someone on at Headingley, amidst talk that Robert Lui is unsettled after his mid-season move from Salford Red Devils.
The increased attention on the Rhinos, especially after their poor campaign last term, is being cited as a possible reason.
