If you think of every single player who laces up his boots from Shevy open age to the Wigan 1st team and all that's inbetween he's far above average.
For me it's a sad state of affairs in RL when a 26 year old SL standard prop retires because he gets a better offer from the private sector. SL is the 2nd highest watched sport on Sky but yet we find ourselves in this situation
Where is the money going?'"

| Quote: P-J "So what's the answer? We can't raise the Salary Cap because a good percentage of the league isn't spending to the limit of the current one and an even higher percentage would go under if they tried to.
There is simply no money in the game. It's due to a lack of sponsors and an unfavourable TV deal.
Union is utter, utter poop but money rolls in because their marketing team is first rate.'"
I agree, especially the last sentence. But athletics, is a bit like cricket (both sports I like), for the average event there is no-one there, save a few high profile games (& latterly 20/20). Cricket makes a fortune from the Indian limited over game but I struggle to understand how athletics pulls in so much money, unless it is from government. | | | |

I've seen them bomb a quarter final, bottle a semi final, finish as league leaders, but I've still, never, seen the Wire win the league

50 k a year as a lower league propr for maximum 15 years or 30K a year for the next 30 years?
What youve got to take into account is that some of these guys bodies are ruined by the time they retire.
