Quote: Last Son of Wigan "Salary cap is obviously a factor otherwise we could bring in whoever we could afford. Do you really think our team would be the same if there was no cap?
Nothing wrong with spelling McM on the first game of the season after he's come back from quite serious surgery, I think a smart club looks after their players and considers the season not just the first game of the season.
Powell is no world beater. I don't know why people are focusing on him. But I see why he's played, currently in our squad I don't know who would be better to cover the halves/dummy half than Powell. And for the moment he's on? It's savy cap management.'"
What about Hampshire on the bench with Smith moving to 9?
Obviously not going to happen this season, but is that the way to integrate him into a permanent spot in the match day squad?
