Wire do seem to take alot of our youngsters.

Has it worked out for them there or are they all ending out like Scott Leatherbarrow back at Wigan with their tails between their legs, playing for the under 20s while people who stayed when he was here (sam) run the show in SL

You might have noticed that once that certain poster is struggling he seems to bring out something completely unrelated to the discussion and disappears. Not for the first time either.

And here's me thinking that once you acknowledged that once a player has been paid-up he is removed from the salary cap calculation and therefore does not count on the salary cap, are you now saying again that termination payments count on the salary cap?

Any contract termination payment will count on the club's cap in the year it is made.

Depends on the termination conditions and payments which have to be Ok'd by the RFL as reasonable and which would need to make sure they didn't go over the cap in the year they related to. You can't just pay players off and not have it effect your cap.

Again you completely miss the point. All I've stated is that termination payments count on the cap which you original disputed, and have been proved wrong (again).Termination payments are not salary and will still count on the cap.
