I don't hate Ratboy, I hate some of his antics and I hate the way the plonkers at Sky fawn over him but I genuinely wish him well in the NRL.
Nice one, now we can talk RL most on sky talk rubbish, and like you although I don’t wish Sam, rat boy, Tomkins whatever anyone wants to call him any bad luck I do think his stay will be short in Oz, but on his return it won’t be back to us, or SL I think he’ll go to the dark side for good!

If he doesnt make it in the NRL then if he want to keep his salary at a comparable level then Union will be his only choice as I dont think it could be matched with the cap as it is in SL. A team with money at the back of them (and willing to spend) , Warrington, Salford, Wigan , Leeds could apply for dispensation but I imagine that would cause the teams with money who dont get him to create trouble. Imagine Leneghan get permission to pay him 500k a year with 250k 'outside of the cap' the good Dr at Salford would demand at least the same
Plus for all the fluff the Wigan chairman talked about (like players returning etc etc) I dont see how thats manageable with a cap. Wigan will replace players lost and I would expect spend upto the cap, if a player then wants to come back someone will need to be shifted, easier said than done at times

He is an exceptional player and as I’ve said before, I hope he does do well, but I do think under the nice boy next door image, his bread head is getting a bit too big for his pink boots. Having said that he probably will end up in (if you’ll pardon the expression) rugby union, and go down a storm, all be it a northern storm. As for the likes of Dr Coolcash he like, Mr DW in football will soon get sick of chucking their cash down the sh*t-house for no good return.
Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe.

Most idiotic post ever goes to Grimmy..... The way to restart should be an arm wrestle between a designated player from each side.
Surprised you lot are so pessimistic, we were in poor form for the five games before Monday, plus I can see us resting a couple, the ones that do play may well have one eye on the cup as well. I do hope you guys get it together it's no good for the league you being in this state

Your change of post now reflects the fact you read the rest of the thread I assume. If you attend you are unlikely to see a Saints team who are 'up for it'... unless of course you mean up for a beating. We run out and we've lost most games before we've kicked off because we just seem to have the wrong attitude.
