Whatever they are paying him (let's imagine it is 150k), only 75k of it will count on the cap. This means they have 75k more to spend on other players to strengthen their squad.

The bigger worry might be Gale. Williams is younger, but Gale has been far better over the last three seasons. Good halves are extremely difficult to come by. I dread to think what the likes of Warrington would be willing to offer Gale as a marquee player, and whether we would be able to turn down an approach for him.

I really think we will lose about 4 players this year to other clubs dangling big money in front of them Moors, Roberts Minikin Saviola ?.

Andre Savelio was on loan to us from Saints last year - he is now a Warrington player.

Not to mention the other names they mentioned are all under contract.

They might be under contract, but would we stand in the way of a player who requests to leave because he can double his salary?
And what about Hardaker? I hope we have an agreement in place, because if he continues his current form he will be in demand. We have agreed the fee with Leeds, but have we agreed a contract with him?

That depends on whether DP would want a player who thinks he's better off elsewhere and the Club accepting silly money for the sale - both very likely.

So was Solomona, so being on a contract does not make any difference.

The issue of Solomona has been discussed on one hundred and forty four pages .
Can hardly seeing the RFL ratifying a move of that nature between two league clubs.
