Marquee players could be paid a billion pounds a week and it'll still only count as £150k on the cap.
It's presumed that Clark takes up the most cap space, as he's not marquee.

So, theoretically, if you had unlimited funds, you could offer the 2 best players in the world millions to come and play here?
To be fair to Duckie, it's amazing what knowledge you can pick up when driving a cab around town.

| Quote: Winslade's Offload "Toby isn't a superstar, his defence can sometimes lapse and he could do with a bit more speed, but we all know that the standard of rugby league has dropped significantly over the past few years and that leaves him as one of the best UK centres. So if you wan't to keep him you have to pay up. Since he came through our Academy I would hope we keep him, god knows we have had too few players coming through to the first team without losing any.
I wonder if this rumour of a £140K offer has come from Huddersfield. They always have a bit of cash and it would allow him to return home.'"
Not a bad shout Charles for a possible alternative destination. Close to home a club with a bit of cash, a new coach and although obviously I've no idea about who's in and out of contract maybe a replacement for Leutele if he's due to leave/not happy and who won't be on tuppence ha' penny.

It’s definitley come from Hull KR. Shaun Kenny-Dowell is on a wedge and he’s leaving which frees up a lot of cash and a centre spot.

| Well whoever it is we surely will not be struggling with our salary cap next year with the 'loss' of Akauola, departure of Clark plus one or more of Widdop / Clark D / Austin. I suppose no club will be rolling in cash after the ravages of Covid but the club must be able to pay for King ?

You’d think so wouldn’t you.

| Might not be a case of being able to afford it but if we consider him worth that kind of money or not.

| True, the club may feel they are being ripped off. But they would need to find a suitable replacement, and possibly pay a transfer fee.. I guess they will look at the problem from both sides before deciding.

| I'd be incredibly dissapointed with the club if they let Toby King go for wage reasons, they were happy enough to pay latu last season and asotasi a few years back, king has at times been a shining light and I'd imagine a player that Powell would want in his squad. The question they need to ask is could they bring in a better player for less money? It's doubtful isn't it really. We need to get him signed up and soon.

Spot on. The club have shot themselves in the foot over what they’ve paid players in the past. We paid Tyrone Roberts 300k. No wonder King wants 140k+.

Maybe he is motivated by the challenge of being part of a project with an ambitious club on the rise rather than just sitting in comfort zone at a big club, like Martin Gleeson joining us from Saints.

| We should keep him and i'm shocked we let him get in to the last year of his contract. He'll keep getting better over the next few years so it would be daft to let him go.
King and Mata'utia in the centres next year i'd be happy with, Widdop and Trueman in the halves, and keep Daz would be the dream. Keep Hill coming off the bench and pick up Tom davies as a replacement for Lineham and we're looking solid next year

Yeah, couldn't agree more. One of the best all-round wingers in the game and doesn't get the credit he deserves. I hope he's not enjoying the South of France too much and wants home. I was shocked that Wigan let him go as I thought he was better than Marshall, even if he wasn't quite as quick.
