Quote: Wire_Yed "No one doubts that it's a gamble but if you are going to gamble then the current MOS is, imo worth a try.'"



I agree. If it works out it could turn out to be the missing part of the puzzle for Wire. As you say, a bit of a gamble though. For the money he will presumably be on I'm sure a younger player of equal ability would be available from Aus. It's not as though he's non-quota. Over the course of a 2 year deal (if that's what happens) it could certainly prove to be a mixed bag.

Did a Wigan fan just accuse us of cheating in regards the salary cap?

I hope Huddersfield put faith in Cudjo as a replacement, given game time at 1 I think he could be an International class player in a position that causes us some problems.

I imagine that's why there letting him go isn't it? Move him to fullback, Brough replaces him taking the conversions, bring in a new winger on a lot less money than Hodgson would have wanted.

Plus with the quota coming down I imagine it's seen as an even greater risk as you want your quota players to be playing as much as possible. At his age I can't see him getting at most 3/4's of a season in in 2 years time.

Remember we've never actually "Broken" the cap we've gone against the "spirit of it".

We are just wondering how it would be possible for Wire to get Hodgson under the cap considering the big earners you already have. I mean think about this these are just my guesses:

Morley - Probably about 150k
King - 200-300k maybe (didn't he reject 200k from us to go to Wire?)
Andersons - 80-100k each easy
Carvell - 80-100k maybe more
Myler - Over 100k as he rejected a "six figure sum from Salford"

Thats not far from a million by itself. Add to this I know a lad who plays for Wire who tells me what he's on and what some of the other young players are on and I dont see how it will be possible even with the removal of Mathers to get Hodgson under the cap unless you get him on a bargain contract which is unlikely as the extension he's rejected will of been on his current deal which will be well in excess of 100k probably closer to 200k.

I think V Anderson, Solomona and Hicks are off at the end of the year along with Mathers.

Ah this may be their way I take it back. They're still a bit fishy though I think the amount they must be spending on wages must be damn close to the cap. I mean other than maybe Riley I can't see a player in their 13 that would be on less than 80-100k.

Maybe am just fed up of people saying we are over the cap and theres no way we can be under it.

Every season after we sign someone its the same old story.

Its boring.
