Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union. www.squadbuilder.co.uk:1883.jpg



Quote: Wires71 "I think it is fair to assume he is in the top 3 wage earners at the club though?

The Liverpool Echo have it as £1.3M over four years.

£325k per year, or almost 20% of the salary cap on one player. What tosh.

I'd be amazed if he was on half of that.

It does seem high, remember a certain percentage is/was paid in overseas image rights though.

Is that an intended understatement? If it was remotely close to that figure, it would put him far and away the best paid player in SL. I think we all know who/what the answer to that question is.

150k is the most he will be on. That figure is so high.

Record transfer fee in SL, cap dodging. Left prior to a testimonial.

Can you tell who it is yet?

When he signed, I do remember the press, might have been the Aussie press, saying King's the highest paid centre in the world. Pretty sure they quoted figures of something like $1.6m Australian dollars, whatever that exchanges to...

a massive let down has to be kevin campion. he came over with a big rep, saw wilderspool and had it on his toes. didn't even give it a shot. 4 grand final apperances and 6 soo apps. reckon he could have been a good player for us.

Don't I remember reading somewhere that there are only four (or was it five) people who know what King's salary is? I'm sure that "inner-sanctum" will take the information to the grave with them, the rest is pure conjecture.

You would never catch me with one of those childish signatures:



Gareth Davies came with a good rep when he joined us in the mid 90's and turned out to be gash.

Dave "Doc" Murray was laughable as a RL player.

'I've done things i'm not proud of. And the things i am proud of,.......well they're disgusting':44022.jpg



Don't care who this upsets but i suggest Andrew Gee. He thought one brilliant performance against bradford excused him being s**t the rest of the time. All it did was show how good he was when he could be ar**d. He really did my head in.
