| Quote: Cibaman "According to one reoprt I read Ashton was offered £70k by Wigan (a "massive" pay increase) but went to union for £140k.
I just cant see Eastmond making it in Union, he just doesnt seem suited to the game. What position will he play? Cant see him as a half back or centre. He'd probably settle in easily enough on the wing but more likely full back.
If he does go I expect he'll be back in RL after a couple of seasons having earned himself 5-6 seasons RL earnings in the meantime. Cant say I'd blame him really.'"
He will be wasted in Union no doubt. Rather see him go NRL!! |

In fairness to Kyle he hasn't played a full game in well over 6 months, has spent the entire off season recovering from some quite serious operations, had only done light training and had only played around 30 minutes of a friendly prior to the game at the weekend which, had Pryce not have been injured, he would have unlikely have played the full game.
Just because the result was a draw does not mean individual player stats should be even-ish.

It wasn't me who said he was 'superb' I thought he was his usual overrated self in a tough, tight game. Didn't want to know, maybe he's scared of getting injured because he doesn't like getting tackled anymore because everyone knows if you smash him he disappears. |

How long has it been since the salary cap was altered? Have we had no inflation since then? Have club's incomes not increased since then? We need to raise the cap if we want to be able to compete with the money sloshing around in yawnion.

If the new TV deal can be negotiated at an increase then we may be able to bump it up from next year, but I'm not holding my breath given the current financial climate. |

Unless the cap was doubled (which we clearly can't afford as a sport), we still wouldn't be competing.
The reason our best players consider RU is that their international game is a cash cow and the players are handsomely rewarded for playing lots and lots of internationals each year.
Even if we offered Kyle a five years deal on £200k, he'd still be a fair way down on what he could end up being paid in RU, and that's before we even consider his earning potential post retirement as a yawnion pin-up rather than a little known league player. I wouldn't be surprised if players like Ashton trouser £50k each for a 6 Nations tournament alone. |

Can't blame him at all really, especially seeing how well Chris Ashton's doing at the minute.
