It's a ridiculous situation that we've got ourselves into where we can't actually fit all of our contracted players under the salary cap. We must be paying some serious wedge to some players. Wakey had 8 missing against salford and still managed to field a team good enough to win and I bet they're still well under the cap

What 8 players did Wakey have missing.
I think we are at cap as Radford has assembled a good squad on paper, the players we have in key positions will be on good wages, Shaul, Kelly, Sneyd, Taylor, Watts, Houghton, Manu, Mini and Ellis will all be on door salaries, add to this trying to run a reserve team.
We had a lot of cap missing on sat and put in a good performance. We have been hit with injuries and suspensions this year but are still close to the top 5 and still in the cup and that's accredit to the squad Radford has built within the cap.

We had plenty of cap missing in the previous 3 games which we lost. We have a good first 17 but beyond that only 2 or 3 with significant first team experience then we're into inexperienced kids. They've done OK this far and maybe 6+ first teamers will stretch any squad but it seems the way of the world now so we maybe need more depth to the squad moving forward or your season could be over before it begins
I think I am right in saying that somebody only counts on a clubs cap if he plays for them. At present Hadley hasnt played for Hull yet this season so has a cap figure of 0 for hull but as soon as he plays for them his full wage if he is in their top 25 earners counts on the cap and by all accounts would take hull over the cap.

I don't think the issue is the general wage bill, it's the winning bonuses that the CC squad received that's the issue from what I've heard.
