Did Wigan get any cash for Faz? Was he still on contract at the time? I think they got a decent wedge for him but can't be sure.
I seem to recall figures around £1m being bandied about at the time, some from Saracens and some from thr RFU. It was a great move finanically for both Farrell and Wigan.

and ever since the RU have been pretty quite IMHO we are always gonna loose a couple to the other code but when its a player off Smiths calibur i think we can all sleep safely at night.

are your seriously suggesting that this sport is in a worse state than when wigan won everything? if not for the cap then how many decent players do you think you would have?????? The cap protects all clubs Leeds Rhinos are the shinning examples of this they have never broke the cap but are the top team in northern hemisphere at the moment and clubs like wakey are not in debt . The cap works unfortunately its just soured the goons grapes.
Have a look at the debacle that was the England RL World Cup performance for your answer.
