Yeah I remember it being reported, I also believe it was $1 Millions AUS.

No way is one man taking up 15.5% of the anual salary cap.

HUDDERSFIELD - THE BIRTHPLACE OF RUGBY LEAGUE:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_43854.jpg



think the salary o'donnell is on could be right 250k a season i read too when he signed.

Griffin leaving is a blow lets not get away from this fact.

gallen wont be coming either enf of.

looks like faalogo will replace griffin in the prop department.

walker not good enough for super league, fairbank is a 2nd rower.

so for next season our props look like being.. mason,patrick (ex 2nd row),crabtree and faalogo (ex 2nd row).

if one gets injured then raleigh (ex 2nd row) to come in or a youngster, our pack getting weaker by the season??

we have a big squad and this is what happens to keep players happy, if they cant get in the team in there favoured position give them another job in the team

250k Aussie dollars per season at last seasons exchange rate, ramped down from the Aussie speculation that always massages these figures upwards a little, would bring that salary figure down to a more realistic level in uk currency IMO.

Kirmond, O'Donnell, Raleigh, Ferguson, Bruno, Gilmour. How many do we need?

I think Kirmond has been unlucky to lose his place.

I recall the Luke O'Donnell salary being quoted at £1million over four years but this was quickly played down as 'exaggerated' figures. Don't believe for a second that he is on that much. Around £180,000 p/a would take him to around the average 'top' SL players wage. Luke is worth that for sure. A quality forward, hard as nails. And he will get better as he regains his fitness.

Regards Griffin - personally, and I don't think it has really been mentioned, I just think that Nathan doesn't want all his forwards growing older at the same time. Current props ages are Eorl 28, Mason 29, Griffin 30, Larne 23, when you throw in the likes of Gilly at 33, Luke 30, Doof 30, Raleigh 30. Look at what happened at Leeds with their pack becoming old altogether due to poor recruitment and decision making. Fa'alogo is ready to move upfront and there is enough talented youth coming through. Griff is a good prop but he isn't international class. With Bruno moving into the pack it is just a case of too many bodies!

Am very interested to know who this new centre and winger is that is being spoken about. With Jammer also off the cap and quota, it would be nice to have a name to get the juices flowing for 2012........

Somewhere in the dust of time rest the bones of the Galilean He who was spat upon. He whose face was marred beyond all human likeness Somewhere buried among the lies of the past rests the tomb of Yeshua Of he who was made God in a world without Hope. And when this son of Joseph is found. What then will the Church of Rome say? Prepare yourself for the day is coming.

Doesn't a player have to play a certain number of games to count agaisnt the cap? Im sure I've read 6 matches quoted somewhere. Jammmer isn't even named in our squad this season.

He isn't in our squad. So i would imagine he isn't in our first teir of 25 players eligible for the Salary cap. Therefore his salary won't count towards the cap, assuming he doesn't play for the first team this year.

I don't know where i got the six games from though, I may have dreamt that one.

Even though he is not registered and does not count towards the salary cap he still gets his full salary for sitting in the stands and doing a bit of coaching.

He is a non playing staff member but on a players salary
