Neither do I, I really couldn’t care less.

Yeah, you would think that players at the top clubs are on big money but, it sometimes works the wrong way round.
Those at the bottom have to pay more to entice "top signings", probably due to the lack of security.

What some people I think forget, is that we are all working in line to the same salary cap, and these are audited on a month by month basis, so I don't think clubs overly outbid each other.

What I do recall from memory, from a conversation with the RFL when I was more involved with salary caps, is that it is the club that is sold, as much as anything, such as facilities, silverware prospects etc. One thing that Leeds did tend to do, was to look at incentives etc, to try and entice a player to stay longer, as a stable squad, investing in a good youth structure, gets, or used to get rewarded back into the salary cap

According to BJB he was on around £40/50,000 per season at leeds pretty similar to mcguire but that obviously went up with the silverware they attained ,whilst senior was on over £100,000 at the same time ,whereas when BJB was at Salford he was on £130,000 . On a side note , interesting interview with Proctor who was offered a 3 year deal at Salford , but opted for us .

I presumed the Salford offer was way back in May when he first got the boot and we declared no interest. They were named as the one Super League club showing interest.
Our deal was at a later date when maybe Salford had gone elsewhere? Last player we truly gazumped Salford for was Duncan McGillivray, hope Proctor lifts the team in a similarly effective manner.

Early signs are very positive, he’s certainly got the pedigree and could be that talisman at the club that we need when it gets tough , just as long as his girlfriend settles into wakey life I can see him being a big hit with the fans and players alike
