Could be an argument for Currie being the RL equivalent of Michael Owen then?

Fantastic young talents, struck down by injuries and the unavoidable and inevitable aging process, which diminishes one of their major attributes, their pace, and sadly you are left with a shell of the player you once had?

But unlike Owen...Currie is in a salary capped sport.

Just seen that Niall Evalds has told Salford that he has signed for another club. The merry-go-round has begun.

In the absence of any actual Rugby, this is where we have to find our excitment these days.

Castleford.

touted about j jones might be going to you

I wouldn't say no.

A replacement for BMM ?

Hearing return of Livett with a new contract and McMeeken joining us are on the cards.

Interesting development around salary cap for 2021. The West Yorkshire mafia (Cas, Wakey, Hudds, Leeds) wanting to drop the cap to £1.8m next year, clubs this side of the Pennines still supporting a full £2.1m cap limit on the basis clubs do not have to spend to it if they feel they can't and the fact it would reflect negatively on the sport.

Not sure how it would work with contracts already agreed for 2021 in some instances, are West Yorks expecting players to take an across the board 15% pay cut? Or run with smaller squads.

Discussions ongoing apparently.

A mandatory reduction in the cap, even if it's only temporary due to the prevailing economic conditions, is a backward step IMO and as you say Alffi what about current contracts? Yes we are probably fortunate at Warrington, but if the guys in West Yorks only want to spend £1.8m there's nowt stopping them

Absolutely, Uncle Rico. clubs should ensure that their expenditure is in line with their ability to pay. If Heatherington wants to limit his expenditure then let him. He is probably more concerned about the cost of his new stadium. No doubt if and when it is paid for he will be pushing to increase the cap to suit himself.

It has taken us years to get him to agree to a reserve grade when most clubs and pundits thought it a must have. Let's not let him and his cohorts over the pennines dictate that we operate to the lowest common denominator.

No we don’t want to do things like that.

Agree 100% on the cap issue, as a Leeds fan, im hugely disappointed in my club for being in favour of a reduced cap. Think Leeds have handled the whole lockdown situation very poorly, as fans worrying for our game and our clubs, crying out for something positive, Leeds have constantly pushed doom and gloom articles out to the point of it getting tiresome.

If your multi millionaire owner wants to put enough money in to enable Wire to pay 2. 1m, but our multi millionaire owner dosnt, why should Warringtons be prevented from doing so? He shouldnt be prevented, like i say, disappointed with Leeds

..,,and how right I was UR.

Bet you’ve never be happier to have an idea splattered.

I wonder if Hetherington's approach is motivated by wanting to have stronger leverage in negotiations with players.

"Look mate, we want to keep you, but the salary cap is lower now and we have to cut our cloth accordingly. You'll not get any more elsewhere, they have the same restrictions as us".
