Today we have agreed terms for Kevin Locke to join us immediately . We are just awaiting his Visa

Are there going for a full team of overseas players? That will give them 10.

More interestingly, koukash stated at the start of the year they were spending up to the cap, so logic dictates if a big hitter like Locke (who won't be cheap) is on his way in, whose the counterbalance on the way out?

No departures they have signed Warringtons finance director as well

If you were using ones not retained then Leeds could add Gale, Tansey, Carvell, Broughton, Scruton, Smith, Mathers, Moore, Diskin, Walker, McShane, as well as others we have on loan at other SL clubs like Keinhorst, Minns, Duckworth, Foster, Tonks Baldwinson.

Dangerous game to play with relegation this year.

He never actually stated this. He said Salford had a small space on the cap, believed to be from pulling out of a deal for Dixon from London when he suffered a bad injury.

I'd imagine Salford could swerve the cap issue by paying him the remainder of their cap space for this year, with the promise of a potential increase on next years salary to make up the difference.

Al hypothetical of course. Will be interesting to see if there are any issues.

He definitely is quoted as saying he will be spending up to the cap - apologies if he failed but you have also signed Michael Platt in that time - so unless you were planning on spending massive overs for him, there's not gonna be a lot left in the kitty, even to see Locke through to the end of the year and a pay increase all conjecture of course!

It'll be very interesting to see how koukash handles his outgoing players to balance out his incoming ones.

Tim Smith has rejoined Wakefield, he's training there today and could feature on Friday against London.

I agree. I'm not claiming to be any sort of expert on the cap, however by the time Locke gets his visa they'll probably be under 10 games left this year, so it's not like they are gonna be paying him a full years salary.

Is Locke coming over early, before the end of the season?
If not I don't see how Salford could pay him out of this years salary cap as he wouldn't be a Salford player yet.

Yeah he is coming over early, pending visa application.

I wouldn't hold your breath on that being any time quick
