Quote: vastman "15K at 23 playing a sport he I assume enjoys with one full SL game under your belt is no insult at all. However some people will never be totally happy unless they are painting the club or the coach as evil exploiters.
Tell us Mr Cool has he gone or not then we can all move on - thanks.'"
22 today, actually. Happy birthday Liam!!

Also 100% agree with jack in the box although it doesn't apply to all of them just the majority.'"
So you wouldn't mind two unconnected people on this forum talking about your earnings? I know I'd mind! |

Ha. When I asked for a clue. I was actually meaning 'can you tell us'! Let's play hot or cold.
From overseas?

Sportsmans wages have always been open to debate, it's part and parcel of the whole negotiation. I know what you mean in general but can't agree with you in this regard. |

| Quote: vastman "Now we are on a more even keel…
Overpaying the likes Mellors erodes the ability of the club to fund long term projects like Kay. In hindsight Mellors was a poor signing, it happens - however it's the fact that he was so grossly overpaid that it actually drained the club that really irked. The club have had to pay him off with cash that could have been used to plump up Kayes and others deals. Now every penny is needed to get 17 SL players on the park and the possible stars of the future have to be forgotten - something I'm sure MC and RA don't like one bit.
So it is IMO relevant, there has to be balance in recruitment.'"
Kay was on the salary he was on because he had no SL experience and was not a first team player, how much Mellors was on had no impact on Kay or his contract.
Paying him off (Mellors) if it falls in this seasons cap, will have an effect this season of course, but that isn't what I was referring to.
Kay was on what what he was, because of who he was, not because of anything else. |

But Try Scorer, who often calls other people Idiots and clueless therefore insinuating that he isnt, said that it was £8000 and he knows everything about everything in junior rugby so I don't know who to believe.
Are you sure you offered £15,000 mr cool because Try Scorer said otherwise

And seems free to do so whilst others are not.
TBF I think he was saying that's what he was on, but it's hard to tell. |

| I'm shocked by the 15k offered plus add ons comment (a lot closer to my 20k comments which is reasonable) from DC but Kaye must be thinking his career will progress more quickly at Leigh whilst earning a bit more in the short term? 
All well we'll see what else happens in the coming weeks with other signings as we need a scrum half and utility back for wing/centre.... |

How much would you have had him on then, based on his lack of experience?
