But I do quite like the thought of say Leigh tempting the Wigan captain with a marquee offer! Assuming Sam Tomkins is Wigans marquee player. I think its exciting and innovative. I can see peoples arguments against it, but Im yet to hear one that as convinced me its not a good idea.
Why is it so unrealistic? At the moment the cap prevents excessive offers. The basic idea of marquee signings will allow clubs to pay over the odds for a player.






Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?

But will it make that much difference to what it is now. The rich clubs having better players than the poorer ones. Just will give the poorer clubs to at least attract one top class player, which in doing so, will make them a better team

You'll have to explain that one to me.

For example, Wakefield, instead of signing 4 5 average super league players, they sign 3, promote a couple of youth players who are on the fringes. Sign 1 Marquee player, Wakefield fans are excited by signing J Thurston :wink: also happy to see the young kids coming through. Actually think it will encourage teams to bring through the youngsters so they can put more money into a marquee signing. Its not a perfect example, but its along the lines of how I think it can benefit even the smaller clubs

... and where does the money come from?
They could do what you're suggesting now within the salary cap, with one player earning substantially more than the others.
The word Marquee doesn't magically conjure up more money.

Like I said not a perfect example, but you cant just risk losing all our best players to the Nrl or rugby union for the sake of Wakefield, Most teams spend close to the cap, Wakefield probably worst example I could of used to be fair, replace Leigh with wakefield, and I reckon every team would make use of the marquee signing
