| No issue here for me, its not something that has just been plucked out of thin air this happens quite a lot, its only because Well mentioned it in the media that is is even a discussion point on here. IMO Cas would have been quite silly not to ask for salary cap relief.

| So Cas have just de-registered Gale? I always assumed fed-trained players were being carouselled routinely and within the rules, tbh. At the wealthier clubs at least.

oh, you're in for a treat
on 2nd thoughts, don't bother
S'what happens when your superstar team is garbage for a season
Instead of improving the team, just weaken the opposition instead, any myopic way you can.
Failing that, whilst you're banned from your own club forum, just troll the 5h1t out of everyone else.

How would you know? You’re a Wakefield fan......now that’s actual trolling.
Me having a different opinion on an issue (in this case the cap relief rule) isn’t trolling, it’s just the point of a message board with debate. Too many on here think anytime someone has a difference of opinion to them it’s trolling.

I am a case in point. People always assume that I am trolling because I take a different point of view, like most French people.

 You should hook a few with that one.

| Quote Fully="Fully"Fair enough.
By not having it you’re penalising clubs in a sport where injuries can occur at any point through any fault of their own. It’s an immensely physical sport and I think we need a degree of flexibility. If you lost 4 players for the season in pre-season, a club could be down £400k on their cap space versus others and only be spending £1.6m on players who can actually contribute versus a club like Warrington spending £2.5m. It’s an uneven playing field and as someone else pointed that already exists with marquee salaries.
As mentioned Gale is nothing more than an off-field employee. We can’t spend more than the basic cap on players who can play this year and we are getting no benefit as Gale can’t play in 2019. We still can only spend the same amount as everyone else. If he does return we have to clear the appropriate space on our cap to be able to fit him back in and under the cap.'"
On the face of it I think that if a player is injured pre season and stays off the playing roster then the club should be able to juggle the cap particularly if it is a route open to all clubs.
However, I must pull you up on your uneven playing field comment as the rules that Warrington operate their cap and roster are open to all clubs?

| With the contract system it's very difficult to replace a player, whether injured or not. So these cases are going to be few and far between.

So they should, the circumstances are the same. I can’t say as I agree with either, but at least the RFL are showing consistency - now there’s something you can’t say very often!
