I assume though Tomkins falls under your point? in which case should his contract now be terminated? And by the way, I agree with your point on central funding, I just think rightly or wrongly it is seen as special players are worth the risk.
I thought the whole point of the Lomax discussion here was the help from the RFL which seems strange. Help which neither Wigan get for Tomkins or we get for Delaney so their relevance of them in this i don't really see.
If Saints don't want to, or can't pay what Lomax wants or feels he deserves then he moves on to a club that will pay it. Or that is how it should have been imo, i don't think Lomax warrants special intervention for reasons pointed out on the previous page.
