They were upset when we signed Zac. Remember being at Magic and old cas chap was near on crying about it. Just leave them too it think they have bigger concerns like staying up

To add to this, and i don't think i have seen anybody here mention it yet, hampshire is a homegrown player who came through our academy so shouldn't we get a percentage of his wage knocked off the cap also?

If we are already paying him a low wage (likely), then against the cap he should be very cheap. Seems like a no brainer signing to me if i am right.

This would only apply for marquee players. More broadly, clubs are given a £100k exemption for developing players but there are no specifics in the published rules around what clubs need to do to be granted this.

'Marquee Player – Each Super League and Championship Club is permitted to have two Marquee Players whose Salary Cap value is limited to £150,000 (or £75,000 if Club Trained);
Club Trained Dispensation – Each Super League club is given up to £100,000 of dispensation for producing Super League standard players.'

Ah, so it is likely a club like ours is already using the 100k, understood thanks.

'Do you remember when we had that meeting in Orlando? We talked about how we were knocked out the previous year by Leeds. And at the end, I asked you one question. "Do you want to be a semi-final team? Or do you want to do something special?" You all said you wanted to win. But talking is easy – it needed you to believe. It needed you to work hard – harder than you had – and make sacrifices. You did all that. you worked for each other. You stuck together when it was tough. And because of your efforts, you sit here tonight as champions. I'm proud of you. Be proud of yourselves. You've done something special.'

Shaun Wane's post-Grand Final speech. 5th October 2013.

Let me guess he is the agent for Hampshire? He is a good backup up signing but that chap just likes the sound of his own voice and spew utter sh*te

This mon is obviously trying to get a big name for himself, nobody outside a few players had ever heard of this Craig Harrison. Now he's in every other interview it seems.

Great comparison :) :)

he was the guy saying Wigan were going to make the massive announcement a few weeks ago. If he was thinking of this i'd love to see what he is drinking or smoking :) :)

and was he the one who dragged him pillar to post in search of extra coin? Not really panned out in the long run has it?

Unsubscribed his podcast as it is so Yarkshire centric and full off bullsh1t - got bored of them saying Cam Smith is the messiah....
I get they have to 'big up' their own players.....but their dream team from last season was one of the most comical things I'd ever heard.
