Beat me to it.

Remember a few years ago when "paying a player off" was included in the cap. Yet here we are this year with AP stating we are paying over £400k off cap to players being paid off, players costing him more than his divorce.

you may be saying neil barker is way off the mark...(which he normally is).. but not this time.. salford are announcing the signing of Joe Westerman in the morning..THATS OFFICIAL..( one of office staff told me this morning)

In reality you can approach anybody any time, so whether you're actually ooc when there is an option in the club's favour is a moot point. Technically you might be right, in which case Hull are safe from the prospect of no punishment whatsoever. Phew.
No club sticks to the letter of that rule, never mind the spirit, I think it is fairly safe to say. It's more of a non-announcement rule, to protect the player from fans (and in the odd case coaches and chairmen) who tend to disgruntlement.

In reality there are loopholes in the cap that mean I doubt that anybody has to resort to stuffing brown envelopes with tenners.

It's happening, swap deal for taylor

be very dissapointed if this happens! can see many fans debating to buy passes deciding not too

how can salford swap taylor if he is on loan from wigan?

Quote: number 6 "how can salford swap taylor if he is on loan from wigan?'" Salford Red Devils have signed Wigan prop Scott Taylor on a one-year deal. The England international, 23, moved to Wigan from Hull KR in 2012 for a "substantial fee" and helped them win the 2013 Challenge Cup and Grand Final m.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/30044251

Plus a fee I hope

Can't believe Pearson would get rid of a young England international who was one of our best players last year. The guy is crazy if so.

If it is true then Pearson can f**k off for all I care.

Calm down, it's just a rumour as it stands.

I will be fuming if this happens, the only reason I could see this happening would be if Westerman has asked to move, but not sure why he would leave Hull for Salford (one of the big sides with more chance of success I could maybe understand).

If he goes go and I would want Taylor and a decent amount of money.

As a fan who really cares how much money we get for him when it's not going to be reinvested? No good can come of selling your best player, regardless of what money you get for him.
