Over the two years he signed for? If that’s the case it’s about right.

Gaskell overall made solid contributions in 2022. What we learned though was he isn’t a regular halfback option but more effective as a centre where he played very well.

If it’s 100k a season it’s a bit steep but I’ve never seen him give less than 100% in a game for trinity and so long as that continues he earns his money. Not that it should be public knowledge or even be discussed.

Gaskell could offer us solid options for centre and fill in cover in emergencies at FB and HB. He adds value imo. If you had asked me mid 2022 when he largely played HB I’d have been less positive but Gaskell showed up well and did a good job in that centre spot so I had a bit of a turnaround on my opinion of him.

So what is Tim saying, we paid 100k over two years for Gaskell? That’s not how he first painted it as that’s 50k a year which is more like it.

Problem we have when it comes to the halves, we have both Lino and Gaskell on 100k+, which for me isn`t a great use of a limited budget, we look to have deliberately gone for a cheaper option in Smith to provide competition and cover in the halves but for what it`s worth I think Smith will be a good signing and will take number 6 for next year, I wouldn`t be expecting any further additions to the spine.

So is it Gaskell 100k over two years? If so your post is a touch misleading. I wouldn’t consider 50k OTT.

Watched the same podcast last night, Harrison alludes to both been 100k plus on the cap, was just a passing comment in relation to Morgan Smith tbf but suggest 100k plus a year.

Aludes to?

Is that each.

Can I have a link if you have one? This I feel is a breach of confidentiality and I intend to inform the relevant people. I’m absolutely certain the club won’t be happy at all.

Well the blokes just guessing isn't he, he isn't Linos agent, I'm not sure if he's gaskells? Although he does represent most SL players, you would assume doing the job he does he has a good idea of what a lot of players earn, if I was him though I'd stay away from speculating on players salaries all together but it was basically in context of saying we have 2 high earners there so they have gone for a cheaper option in Smith (he obviously knows what Smith earns as he is his agent) Not sure how to link from mobile mate as I use the app.

Interestingly he started talking about us taking the cheap option with Applegarth as well, saying we would be paying 70/80k rather than paying 150 for an aussie.

The only people who should know a player's salary are the player, the club and I suppose the agent. If the agent is passing this information on then he's way out of order.

Re: What we currently look like for 2023 : Thu Oct 20, 2022 6:41 pm  

Going off experience, I would say £100k a year, given the calibre of player, I would say is a little excessive.

However, I think £50k a year, would be inaccurate too.

Given the fact that he's come from a cash rich club, he would have been on a decent contract. I think maybe £60-70k would be more accurate. Also, an average salary, based on the cap, abd a squad of 30, would allude to a similar figure.

Its guesswork by everyone on here

SHOW ME THE MONEY !!! What type of Gob Slight uses such a title. To me that tells you all you need to know about the bloke and there are too many of his ilk milking a living out of the game

Where have you proved me wrong, give me the link and stop being an idiot.

I can’t be bothered to find it I can be bothered to listen to it. Because quite frankly I think the agent has broken the law as this is confidential info. I don’t doubt for a second he knows the figure what I doubt is he’d be stupid enough to give specifics.

I can’t imagine MC dealing with someone who did that could you. How damaging do you think that info if true could damage the teams structure. Nobody would put up with that.

So again, link please, because I will go out of my way to find out if this sort of thing is ethical/allowed.

Weirdly my job title isn't Vastmans PA. I've given you the information, go find the video yourself. Little grass.

You do know that nobody on this forum reports into you right? You've been given the info countless times. Off you go to find it yourself Vasty
