Not a good example as Arthur (rip) was involved with our club (Wigan) when we were at a very low ebb.

You miss the point completely. The system I proposed does not necessarily involve increasing the cap. The only compulsory element to it is the minimum salary of £25k. There would be no requirement of the poorer clubs to throw megabucks at top players, but there is also nothing restricting the richer clubs from paying their top players good money. It is a structural suggestion rather than a simple cap increase proposal.[/list]

Maybe you can suggest a proposal yourself?



Course they would

You and others miss the point.

It is a CAP not a requirement to spend.

So 5 players could possibly earn 1.2 million

Is that a statement or a question ?

The overall wages and salaries at Wigan and every club go up each year. So the whole of the increase is taken up by the non playing staff.
We can always find the money to pay them.
If we can increase the money for the non playing staff at all clubs then why not the players? Why are their salaries capped? No one else's are!
So the most important people at the club, the players, have their salaries capped and the rest get their's increased.
That is just so Rugby League!
