I know some comments have mentioned he isn’t in the highest earners but all in all, you’d hope / expect that inglis isn’t given he has come out of retirement.

Yes he’s an outstanding player and if he is anything like back to his best he will be very exciting to watch but it’s a risk if he isn’t or lacks the mental confidence when he gets the attention he will likely get from opposition players.

End of the day, if Warrington can afford it good luck to them.

I wouldn't believe the press soundbites about him not being on much money. He was one of the brightest stars in the game for a long time. He could easily earn 6 figures in Australia just doing media work and endorsements. If he was going to play league again, he could get a £200k (The figure Warrington are rumoured to be paying) salary in the NRL with ease, probably within five minutes just by having his agent make two or three phone calls.

He'll be on plenty, how Warrington are fitting that into the salary cap doesn't really concern me. It's a short term deal, he's not going to be around for long and the sport needs investment, both in terms of money but more importantly in terms of giving it some bright lights to promote itself with. We need big names and positive stories. I'll bet his debut is a sellout crowd (If crowds are allowed) and the biggest TV audience for a while. We need that kind of headline and less of the 'Huddersfield thank Uate for giving up his contract in these difficult times for us all...' type ones.

I mentioned in the vaguest possible terms that the speculation on here of a payday for Inglis of marquee levels was very wide of the mark. That's all. Didn't name a figure, didn't hint at the specific male/female source. My statement was backed up in the media by informed journalists and club officials. Not much of a 'boast'. If you had a confirmed fact that contradicted wild speculation about [iyour [/iclub would you not do something similar?

There you go again boasting "a confirmed fact "

Many a confirmed fact has turned out to be Fiction on this board !

The sky commentators (none of whom will have seen the contract) said it too so it must be true. Wire would obviously openly admit any cap breaches or that they were paying GI the equivalent of 2 players wages.

If it was a confirmed fact then it would not be wild speculation and there would not be any of this nonsense regarding who knows what, a very good friend of mine has a son what plays for Wakey he was in the middle of unwanted and unfair criticism with fans regarding wages and his refusal to sign a new contract, not quite in the same context as your player, never the less the Chairman could have but did not step in and explain the situation fully, all these fans what used to cheer him on turned against him because they thought they knew his business better than he did, I personally could have put them right or tried to had I thought they would have taken any notice, but i did not get drawn into an argument I could not win mainly because it's not my business, perhaps with hindsight you might have been better off letting these people speculate on the matter, after all there's not much else to talk about atm,.

Pointless debating this any more. You're obviously convinced that Inglis is being paid marquee wages which would put Wire over the cap by £300-500,000. THE RFL operates a 'live cap' audit so we won't have to wait long for your suspicion to be proved true and Warrington will be rumbled, pay a fine and have points deducted. Please do send me a private message when this happens.

I'm not convinced by anything. I have asked you several times as have others to back up your comments with some form of proof because usually these comments from people "in the know" are utter BS and so far you have used Brian Carney as your proof. I don't care what the figure is, I'm just wondering who your source is that you're such good mates with bearing in mind it's one of about 5 people, because again usually it's someone who works in the club shop, ticket office or who cleans a players car.

As for a "live cap" it took 2 years for them to pull Wigan up so not sure how that will work.

And I have patiently explained that I will not betray a confidence from a friend of over twenty years just to satisfy your curiosity. It's not good enough for you, OK, I'm happy knowing what I know. If you think mainstream RL journalists like Brian Carney will accept and then propagate falsehoods that's up to you.

i'm loving this boiling, imagine what its going to be like when we finally win a gf

We'll never know the answer to that one

So why come on here giving it the big one that you know for definite because you're obviously going to get asked these questions? As someone above said, just say nothing.

My curiosity is simply why GI would sign for Warrington on a wage supposedly well below his asking price when he could more than likely sign for any NRL club. If he signed for the same fee then the lifestyle is better, or he could get more money and the better lifestyle. He's Greg Inglis FFS...who wouldn't want to sign him which is why I asked if your mate had divulged how they managed to sign him but he apparently hasn't.

I don't buy the "to play with my mate Jason" comment, so it's one of two reasons:

1 Wire are paying him an absolute fortune
2 No NRL club wanted him because he's crocked

I'm pretty sure the same questions would get asked if Cronk suddenly signs for Hull

Great signing for wire and the game over here if he stays fit and is close to the player he was BTW

That makes sense
