Cap space? The current situation is going to cost Leeds millions, thoughts of signing anyone anytime soon is an absolute fantasy and would probably be terrible business in the current circumstances.

What have the said players done?

Dont expect any signings this season now for anyone. Itll be about going with what you have if and when its starts again. It's a shame as I have a feeling we looked capable of top 3 with the squad only getting stronger

How do you make money in short though? Buy being successful. We need more quality to do that, think club have realised this.
How do you know what the clubs plans are?

If the game announces no relegation before they start again, which seems likely, then I hope we then go with more youngsters anyway to prepare for a better future. A future that would probably require some cost cutting anyway.

Sounds like they visited a school (on behalf of the club, not just for a day out) and ended up taking a couple of 16 year olds back to their hotel. 16 is the age of consent, so they haven't broken the law, but it doesn't look favourable on the club or sport so they were fired

I think that's the right thing to scrapping relegation.

Oh dear. Not good at all.

If, by some miracle, the European game is left with cash to burn then there'll likely be some quality NRL players to be had without having to sign the dregs. That said, it'll almost certainly be skint.

Interesting to see the NRL "rescue package" apparently come from a group of British banks.

I heard one was a 17 year old and the other was a teacher from a different school. Doesn't make much difference anyway as you say no laws were broken.
