Super League salary cap still doing the job of constraining the ability of our players to earn their market value. Awesome.

So tell me what should be the salary cap for a RL team .
It is currently about £1.5 million.

Tell us what you think it should go up to ?

It’s currently circa £2.1 million.
There should be no salary cap. Is there a salary cap in your industry?

So where will the money come from if there is no salary cap?

Currently The salary cap in the RU English premiership is £6 million.

In France RU sides spend north of 8 million .

It should be at least 3 million be we all know that can't happen because the image and quality of our game has been going downhill for over 10 years now. In reality to other rugby comps the existing 1.5 million is really part time equivalent.

He'll earn a fortune in French RU.
Wales will cap him, probably against the likes of Georgia or Japan.

However, once his French contract expires, he'll need to join a Welsh RU region in order to continue his international RU career.

Moran at Warrington seems to have wasted enough already, he should be pleased that there is a limit
The more they spend, the worse they get

What’s really scary is that in 2024 French Rugby Union will be heading to a salary cap of £14 million and they could spend an amount on one player equivalent to an entire Rugby League Squad or they could triple the contract salary of all the best Rugby League players to go over to Union and it still wouldn’t touch the sides of their Salary Cap.
