Knights main reporter did say a week before we re signed him that things had changed. He definitely had agreed terms with the knights

RE cap, if every team had to spend a minimum of 90% it would bring bottom teams up, as it is it brings top teams down.

People on this forum had Bevan agreed with Wigan for a lot, lot longer than a week before.

NRL reporters think they can sign anyone at a click of their fingers. They haven't got a clue.

Then they need to market themselves better, become feeder clubs and/or seek external investment.

Salary caps should be based around revenue. The better ran clubs are currently being held back & therefore so is RL/SL.

Here is where licensing comes in. No team spending under 90% should be classed as A. Sides who spend less on the cap have usually poorer facilities etc. If a lower league side could improve SL at the cost of relegating them then it should happen
