Have you not seen the size of the community team at Halifax?
Hull, for example, may have offered 30k a year.
Halifax, just for example, may have offered 15k basic, 18k for community work (paid by sport England or other such grants) and £350 a win 150 a draw £50 a bonus point.
Hull would of offered a reasonable amount for a full time player who would be 4th choice prop if you ask me, just that Championship clubs can bring in one or two (about 8 in Fax's case) SL standard players and use other legal methods to pay them.

Ok, ta for the explanation. I now understand how top Championship sides (and Fev ) manage to recruit decent standard players. Now if they could only improve the standard of back room/coaching staff.................

But this bloke called Bandito used to post on here, and sadid Maki was going to Hull for a pay rise! And he knew everything coz he was the waterboy at some also ran NL team!
Never trust an RL fan who dresses in such a fashion so as to resemble a humbug!

Yeah, Daryl Powell, Ryan Sheridan and Iestyn Harris really ought to step aside and let someone with some coaching credentials have a go.
Same with Cullen at Widnes and Harrison at Batley.
Replace them all with coaches from the National Conference League eh

Can Super League clubs not use the same means to bump up a players wages or is the Super League salary cap more tightly regulated?
I know that some Rovers reserve lads work on the development side but wondered wether it could be done with a first team squad member?

No it cant , more scrutinised
We got done when Andy Last played a game, they took the full amount of both his playing and coaching salaries into account, although rules have slighlty changed now

I remember the Last situation but didnt realise they took his coaching salary into account. Seems harsh when he was genuinly doing the job.
I would have thought that the League would be better off encouraging clubs to put players into Development positions, on a part-time basis going into schools etc.
Its got to be better for the game than some of the other alleged examples of clubs getting around the Salary Cap.
On a different topic, does anybody know How Dobbos girlfriend is getting on working in the Rovers club shop?
