How does the cap work regarding Hadley on Wakefield's end? Presumably they have to pay part of his salary and that in turn counts towards their cap and what effect would that have on ours overall?

The loan system is odd - cap wise.

Essentially all of Hadley's salary will now sit on Wakefields cap, regardless of how long he's been there or how much they actually pay towards his wage. Consequently that also means Hadley's salary now doesn't sit on ours.
It enables clubs that have a lot of play on the cap to take players on loan but only pay a percentage of the wage saving £££.

Not really sure where the benefit lies with us on this one.

Surely if he plays for us those games count on our cap (or am I being too logical for the RFL?)

At the time he played, yes. Which means at this moment we are (or should be, which makes it even more confusing) Hadley's wage under the cap.

If you think about it, the system actually makes sense. It makes it easier for players who perhaps are frustrated by a lack of opportunities to move out on loan to a club that could afford to take their full wage on the cap, but couldn't afford to physically pay it.

Is he on season long loan?

No, the point is that Wakey have enough room on the cap to have his (60k p/a) sit on it, but the two months will actually only cost them 8k (assuming Hadley earns 4k per month, which is a complete guess).

Tweeted yesterday "Still another week on my loan deal." when asked when he was coming back.

Hope he comes back then

Hadleys on £60k p/a?

I think he was using a fictional figure to illustrate how these loans work.

I was going to say…

In his fifth season, well established, 24 years old - must have 50 odd super league games ?

Experience & physical maturity not surprisingly ahead of the younger guys which will be reflected in his contract. I am a big fan & really hope the club don't dispense with him. Hopefully just salary cap issues the club needs to juggle at the mo ?

Wakefield might not even be paying that, it could be that Hull are basically paying Wakefield to have Hadley on their cap and play for them
