Why pay any money, if the rumours are true that they haven't been paid in December doesn't that make them free agents?

But to be honest I can't see many sides in the championship having the ability to afford them, maybe London, Toulouse and Hull KR.

Im not sure missing a pay roll will make them free agents to be honest maybe if its missed a few times but at the end of the day those players will need to earn money and most will have to take a pay cut or even go part time. To be fair though some of them were stealing a living from the Bulls last season anyway.

It doesn't look like Leigh and Huddersfield have paid any fees for Welham or Clare respectively. And O'Brian rumoured to be going next.

Obviously we can not afford some of their better players but in my opinion we should go after some of their young lads who we can offer 2nd team and a chance of first team to. Most of them came from our catchment area anyway so once again all is fair and all that.
