| Know this was a fair few pages back but this was a point that needed making to be fair if our Salary Cap was on par with the NRL's it doesn't mean all the teams need to spend it but it does mean that the teams that can will have the option.
They say its unfair but look at the premier league they've actually had more different champions of the Premier League than we have the Super League and they don't hold back the top teams. PLUS they say that if we were allowed to spend that much then us Wire and Leeds would run away with it every year well no that wouldn't happen look at the PL Man Utd won this year despite Man City and Chelsea having way more money to spend (and having actually spent way more on wages) Arsenal had no money but still managed to beat Chelsea to the title that year and also Everton are penniless in comparison to Liverpool but still finished above them.
If Wigan had the option to spend that much they wouldn't be buying up all the best players theyd just be able to keep their academy players.
Wire wouldn't be buying all the Aussies because they won't all come as they have no real reason to but there would be more coming to this country than are now PLUS we may be able to get players back that have gone. Mossop, Graham, the Burgess bros. etc etc I think we should be doing it.
Its restriction of trade basically.
It isnt a bad thing to be allowed to have that much.

Depends what you call a local lad, if you're 25, and you live in Milton Keynes for about 5 years, and Wigan for about 20 years, I'd call you a Wiganer.

He would be a decent signing IMO, given our options. The problem for me is that he can be a liability in defense, and the wigan fans are likely to get on the back of anyone who isn't as safe as houses.
More interestingly I'd like to hear what the HKR fans think.
