Theres interesting research done on motivation that suggests money is not the key motivator people think it is; its said that the biggest factor when regarding money is to take the issue of money off the table which £100k a year or more certainly does icon_smile.gif
Link here for interest.
You assume so. However, if the figures of £70 or £80K that have been bandied about as Joel's salary are true I would suggest that the issue is very firmly on the table for Joel, especially when he watches Amos Roberts put in another performance for the reserves.

It would be OK for him to work in Reading if he had not signed up to work in Wigan for 5 years beforehand.

Would like to see us sign another prop and DEFINITELY a centre.'"
Weren't the Tomkins brothers born in Milton keynes and raised in Appleton, Warrington ?

| Quote: LovesToSpooge "We'll probably attract those players who are struggling in RU because they don't have the required body shape. I certainly won't be complaining if we uncover a James Graham of our own, which there's every reasonable chance of, seeing as someone of his shape isn't suited to RU in the slightest.
I'd agree the threequarters would be very difficult to poach. But then again you never know. Those two twins at Warrington chose RL over RU because they enjoyed the game more. There's nothing to say that can't and won't happen again.'" If the evans boys become as good as we all hope then i am not optimistic about keeping them long term. Wales RU will more than likely come sniffing for them. I would love to be wrong though.

| Quote: Wigan28/Leeds18 Andy "So not only do we have a player that's going to wind-up the Dire and Whino fans (well until he decides to join his brother), we have someone on the coaching staff as well. Happy days.
It's a nice thought. However, Harris's single-handed successful torpedo-ing of Bradford has wiped his slate clean for most Leeds fans. In fact, in a recent "Leeds Dream Team" type thread he was a pick of many.
Dunno whether Wire fans have mellowed though.
