Salary Cap

Post by Dan2266 »

We’ve broke it this season.

All good though, IL has managed to have it swept under the carpet. The breach is in relation to “reserve grade” players making the first team. Its the usual “administration error” I understand the breach was as little as £3,000 over the limit.

2 other Super League clubs are under investigation. Wigan will face no further sanctions.

We have got away with it because we only claimed 1 Marquee player. If we had claimed 2 we would of been well well under the limit. So a admin error has been accepted as a genuine reason

Would French even count onnthe cap this year?
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

I was told yesterday evening that Wane is green lit to take full charge for one season at Wigan with longer term replacement coming for 2023. Club seem to think bringing Shaun back as head coach will please the fans more than a Matty Peet appointment? Looking to bring in Sarg & spoken/speaking to Luke Gale. TL to go round again only if a Gale deal can't be done. Field and French both expressed desire to go home/stay in Aus and have permission from club to stay in Australia if they can find clubs/employment but are welcome back at Wigan if not. Hardacre has stressed the travelling is too much and is shopping around every Yorkshire SL club but no interest at all, don't be surprised at all if you see him at York for a year! General consensus from the club is that the squad as it is will go ok for next year and Wane will bring out better performances from individuals.

Until Field/French make decisions, we can't sign anyone else, which makes sense as to why we have missed out on certain OOC players in the last few months.

Sarge/Hanley FB, Marshall/Miski WING, Thornley/Hankinson CENTRES, Gale/Smith HALVES, Powell/O'Neill HOOKERS. Not sure what to make of it but I am fully led to believe that is the best we can achieve.

No. The club believe Wane can raise the level and current performances don't match the ability of the squad.
