and still be under the cap
The cap may have stabalized some clubs, brought better stadia, etc. but on the player front
something is very wrong, (and we the fans all know it) RFL?'"
Wigan were not spending up to the cap at the start of the season and Amos Roberts (who we must remember signed a large contract when he first came) retired.
When you look at the Wigan squad that started last season Gleeson, Deacon, Coley, Joel tomkins, Hoffman, o'carroll And pryce have all left. Hock will be on similar wages to that of Gleeson, flower & dudson will be on much lower wages than Hoffman and o'carroll combined. Gelling and lauaki will be on less than pryce and coley.
That leaves lots left over, even when you think about the contract upgrade Sam got ( rumoured to be the same as Joel's wages). To be honest, Wigan have managed the cap extremely well and it wouldnt surprise me if they still have space left.

Amos Roberts retired mid season
Jamie Ellis & Eamon O'Carroll both released mid-season

| What some clubs are fiddling the salary cap? Shock, horror, surely not!
The most blatant I have seen was in Perpignan where the Catlans club caravan shop was staffed by 6 very attractive Australian ladies. Seemed a somewhat generous staffing to customer ratio seeing as we were the only ones in it. Coincidence? Me thinks not!

Straight squad swap for Shaun Lunt who went to Leeds.

I know. It was to show to the Huddersfield fan that started this daft thread that clubs can make mid-season signings.

| Hull started the season 60k under the cap, we've had Ellis, O'Carrol and McKinnon leave since the start and brought in Radford, Russell, Pitts and Watts, so are probably quite close to the cap but I'd be really, really surprised and disappointed if we've gone over it.

So the "Witt" that boomer says you've signed is really an amalgamation of Pitts and Watts?

| i have heard that clubs like wire and wigan give extra money to there big costing players and it has nothing to do with the contracts, just extra money that has been promised.
Dont know how wire are still in the salary cap though with the likes of waterhouse, j.monaghan, m. monaghan and hodgson. However they have got simon moran so i suppose that answers the question.
