He's a true yorkshire man so doubt he will be doing it for nowt. Next question is who's paying the bill this time Crusaders or the RFL..?

I've been told that the RFL are giving Noble Wakefield's share of the Sky money for appearing at this event.

Surely he shouldn't be paid so much. And Crusaders cant afford to pay him so it's probably true the pay cheque will be signed by the RFL.

Apparently he is being paid £15,000 to appear at this and two similar functions. Like I say, they are taking the money from Wakefield's Sky allowance and investing it in expansion areas instead. That is their punishment for going into administration. Money well spent IMO.
