The whole he'll walk if we don't win things next year is just lazy journalism, what he actually said was if after putting everything in place to the best of his ability i.e squad, facilities , income. And we still arnt successful then he said he won't wait around. But what he said after which the journo in question failed to write was that that's whats driving him for success, he simply doesn't fail! And come on your not telling me that the big four don't have mercenaries either? At the end if the day players only have careers spans of what? 10 year max then there back in the real world where they have to look for jobs and work every day 9:00 to 5:00. So if they have the chance to earn some big money in those playing years how can anyone blame them?

Who thee fages? He isn't?

Broughton's your best player and is Hudds bound.

So your saying if Wigan saint or Leeds told their big players "sorry guys but were dropping your salaries by 20k a year" your telling me that they'd just accept it for the love of playing for the said teams? Bollox the big clubs all have one thing in common, their all ALOT RICHER than the smaller clubs hense why theirs such a big gap.

He's fast and can score when put into clear space but he isn't our best player, he can't tackle for toffee and is pretty in-affective when a defence is in front of him.

Any way there's more than just rugby about Broughtons decision, he's actually working in a job aswel as playing RL he was going to Salford uni studying QS and he's got a job down in Huddersfield so him signing for them is perfect for his rugby career and his career after Rugby league.

Salfors actually offered him a huge increase in wages. See there's a lot more in it than just wanting to play for a different team.

You do realise that there's a salary cap, don't you?

How many clubs go to their players and say that at all?

What I'm saying is that, in a salary capped sport, no club can offer an amount to a top player, that much greater that they would choose that club over a club challenging every year.

If you truly believe every team spends upto the salary cap and don't go over then your deluded.

Josh Perry?

AFIK only one club chairman has gone on record as stating he would break the salary cap. (and demand exemptions from it/temporary increase for a single cup to "make up for lost time" (what ever that means).

If you know the LEGAL loopholes it can be done.

For one club? I highly doubt it.

It's either all capped or none, and you wouldn't be the only big spenders unless he went ridiculous and got you in trouble with your dependence upon him.

The salary cap has got more holes in it than a cullender. A world wide successful businessman like Koukash will have a huge financial team working at this very moment on ways around the cap LEGALLY, the RFL are a bunch of armatures and wont know whats going on at half the big clubs now. The only reason other clubs have been done in the past was due to image rights deals that the RFL were made aware of due to it being tracable or the fact that your at the foot of the table spending a full cap and bring in 4 players and and a top coach one of which was a world record signing to nearly make the playoffs in the same year.

Sorry, wrong end of the stick. I thought you meant a legal loophole to get a temporary exemption/increase for one club. Thought you were suggesting he'd challenge the legality of a salary cap in court, like Bradford(?) used to talk about.

No didn't mean that, although I can't say he'd never take that option as effectively the Salary cap in a low paid sport like RL comes under the restriction of trades act in British law. So if he did ever decide to take the RFL to court he would win his case, this was the same arguement Bradford had before they went pop!
