When have I said I know what players are paid?As for being up to the cap we have lost Mcilorum, Sam, Sutty, Joel and Bateman.That is a huge chunk of our wages.So either Hankinson, Bullock, Hardaker and Greenwood are earning the same as the five I mentioned or we were over the cap.Listen, you believe everything IL says if you wish but I dont.

I don't I look at the facts and we have spent the cap every year it has been in force and we will continue to do so in 2019, so how is IFL doing it on the cheap? Don't forget a number of our players have signed improved contracts and there are such things as incremental salary increases and bonuses all of which make up the cap.

Interesting comment in Lam’s interview when he talks about the club making one or two signings.

Seem to rememember a few months back someone in NRL saying we had signed Mitch Aubberson
from the Roosters? Not seen anything since.
Think he's played centre or second row mainly but also 13, 9 and in the halves when needed. Plenty big game expierence and very well liked. A signing like that and a quality 7 aling with some of the youth kicking on would make a big difference to the look of our squad.
Would live to see Jack Wells get an injury free run with Greenwoid and Kibula it would give us more natural size.
