No it will change when the Pensioners all retire.

Leeds paid £250k for a 30 year old Hanley in '92, that's circa £500k in today's money

Thats very true but he did score 106 tries in 104 games which is bloody impressive for a forward, just a shame we didnt win anything in his tenure.



I agree with this. Wire are bringing through some good players at the moment but none capable of replacing Hodgson, Morley, M. Monnaghan and Briers who will probably be gone by the end of next year. They cant go and buy top class aussies anymore because of the salary cap over there now.

If any team is to dominate like Leeds have over recent years I think it is more likely to be Wigan than Wire!!

I suspect Wire may fall into the same trap Leeds have by hanging onto players a year too long and have a lot of players leaving at the same time.

Wigan's record of consecutive CC wins will never be beaten. Superleague teams are more evenly matched now.

Wire need to win it next year to be on a par with St Helens winning it 4 times in 5 yrs. 2004, 2006, 2007, 2008.

Can't half tell.
