I've been watching this thread with great amusement for sometime now.

A point that's being missed on the top 25 earners and the salary cap will always be the 25th (or 23rd, 24th etc) highest earner at the club regardless of how little they actually earn.

Putting somebody in the 25th highest earners at the club does not directly equate to them getting much of a wage at all. Just do some basic math.

How much is he on? we'll never know exactly.

All we can deduce is that there's a KP's salary shaped space on our salary cap liability (1st or 2nd tier), lets call that amount X and that the club deem that spending amount X on KP was more beneficial to the team than using amount X for any other purpose. When considering that X maybe small (and still put him in the top 25), and only the club know what X is and what the alternatives are, further discussion on X becomes moot.

Eitherway I expect this to run and run until it's quoted to death.

No offence Mr Jukes but if I wanted a minder I would chose someone the size of Joel Tomkins, Lee Mossop, Stuart Fielden or Karl Pryce. 13.60205078125:5
