Thanks for your insight, just on the those Salford mercenaries :-

Harrison Hansen - Played for 2 clubs in a 13 year career so far and won everything and currently never played a game lower than the elite level of the sport

Cory Patterson - Played for 4 clubs in a 11 year career so far and not played a game lower than the elite level of the sport

Reni Matutai - Played for 4 clubs in a 15 year career and played a dozen games below the elite level whilst also playing SOO

Dayne Weston - Played entire career in NRL

If thats who you were referring to bring it on, we were a whisker away last year pal and added the above with more to come. Ill pin your post for a revisit next September!!

Ryan Bailey isnt from Salford

your definitely out of your head..

I suppose you could level that towards any Rugby League player in reality. There is certainly a lot more money in Rugby League now than in my day. Does that make every Full Time Rugby League player a mercenary.

I suppose it does according to tigerman. Anyway I am just off to The Bradford Bulls forum to use tigermans theory to explain why Lee Gaskell is at Bradford !

Yea my insight is very poor......
So your suggesting that yours is good actually thinking HH CP and RM have ambition and are not trying to earn as much money as possible for the least amount of effort

Take your Leigh tinted glasses off and look at the facts and how good said players are NOW not 2-3 even 10 years ago.
If you seriously think Leigh or any other championship club are going to be in SL in the next 5 years under the current system and rules then you must be bonkers.
The only way that would happen is if the salary cap was the same for Championship as SL and Derek was willing to pump 1.8 million of his own money (less the bit of funding you do get from Sky , the sponsors and season tickets ofc,) into getting you there but lets face facts again....
Super League is whole different beast and the pressure and intensity of it is far superior to anything that championship can serve up, and playing intense SL week in week out as apposed to tig and pass againt part timers most weeks will leave SL clubs in a far better position come August. FACT
Super League clubs have first choice on all the best players and the top teams get all the ELITE players so to speak, hence why the only clubs to win SL in 20 years other than Bradford in the 90s (look at them now) are Wigan Leeds and Saints, only Hull and Warrington have ever being at OT other than said teams, so the said teams automatically get first choice on any ELITE player with ambition and not after cash Tom Briscoe being a perfect example and Leeds not Leigh being linked with Sam B, as well as first pick on many youngsters. Also they can sign players for alot less money as ambitious players dont just play for money they actually want to win a trophy/ring (not a championship 1) so that also gives them alot bigger squad of players to choose from with a wage structure to suit. FACT

But other than that my insight is very poor and im talking utter poop

I suppose i could come on here and say

WOW guys your recruitment has being excellent with world class talent you will win the championship breeze the middle 8s walk the CC and win SL in 2017 but then I would really be talking out of my bum wouldn't I .....

I think whatever job you do in life you want to achieve more.

RL players have a relatively short career workwise so to suggest some want just to win medals rather than make money seems to me to be strange.

To succeed and to be better you need to try and' as in life as in sport.. Good.

Superleague has to be the ultimate ambition for all clubs otherwise stay the same and you'll always be the same.

The club I follow has that ambition. Good.

You seem to think you can never do better than someone currently better than you. I don't think like that.

I think you are wrong Tigerman.
