Its all about performance per £ in the days of a salary cap.
Exactly.
If we knew their wages, it'd be an interesting debate as to who the best 'pound for pound player' is - someone at Leeds probably, given they won the title a full Greg Eastwood under the cap last year.

It is. I just feel sorry for Joel Clinton, who wriggled out of his contract as the highest paid forward at his old club on £150k pa to join Rovers. Do you think he's had no income since he was released 2 1/2 months ago?

I'd imagine his bronco's payoff for the final year of his contract has helped
