Rangi has received Training gear, make of that what you wish

Probably means he's got some free clobber to put in his suitcase when he goes to New Zealand

Must be boring being a Halifax fan. There are more of them posting on here about Leigh than there is talking about Fax on their own forum.



Obsessed

spot on mate and its amazing really. Ive always enjoyed going to Fax playing against them and generally having a good bit of banter with them. Truth is they are just like us a town with rugby league running through their bones who over the last 3 decades have achieved far more than they should of done.



Now those achievements have usually been brought about through their own wealthy businessmen throwing hard coin at it and over the years signing top draw players like Eadie, Brown, Schuster, Bentley, our very own Rolls etc.



Now we have a benefactor willing to do the above they have turned into little green eyed jealous, bitter yorkshire folk who now see it as a daily ambition to try and discredit a club and owner.



Good luck to Fax next year i really hope they finish 2nd and even come up with us. Roll on December when handbrake jagger will be on the run

...but who are the 2 MASSIVE signings being announced by Fax today?

Who knows, but what we do know is that they'll be performing only for the love of the game.

wonder if they will break their 7k salary cap or even go above 10k

He does not get it, you are wasting your time. Ste thinks RL players all earn millions and drive flash cars, I think it should be like that for what they do but the reality is not even close.

again you seem to write what you want to think rather than reality... the average PT Champ wage will be 18-20K, not below the minimum wage!

Ste it is only a couple of years ago the Championship had a 300k Salary Cap. 300k / 25 = £12000 average per player and that is if you were spending full cap which would only be the top few clubs so less than 12k average for the league.



With the Salary Cap going up and some increased funding at the higher placed teams I imagine that has gone up slightly since but not massively. Going off that I would guess the average PT wage is probably now around the 12-14k mark. Bit more than that for Fax/Fev/Dewsbury maybe a bit less at Oldham/Swinton.



The above is guesswork only but the players playing in the Championship now are basically the same players that were playing 2 or 3 years ago. Doubt they get much more now than they did back then for the most part.

yeah your right lower end i guess cut their cloth accordingly, id say the overall average is probably the 20k mark

He doesn't seem in touch with reality as he thinks signing like Harrison Hanson, Corey Patterson and Reni Maitua are world class talent and not over the hill mercenaries even though they played for Salford before Leigh and Salford finished where last year......
