No i am saying that most clubs have flat structures, so is easy to work out how much they are spending, like Saints snd Wigan.

Sone club like warribgton dont gave flat structures and pay prrmium for half their team , keavibg the other half under represented forctslent.

You calk this breaching the cap, but it is just different ways of running the cap.

Sorry, you must be confusing me with someone else. I have never mentioned breaching the cap.

If I was Walmesley or his agent I'd be asking for double what I'm on now!!!
They're pants without him

Ah! But it's a privilege to play for Saints so he does it for 50p and all the crisps he can eat

Do you mean a capped wage structure?

No, the RL flat structures are pretty simple, senior level, normal level and junior level and within those people generally earn very similar amounts.

Flat sage structures aren't where everyone earns the same, but similar for their grade.

Saints and Wigan probably do this, whereas Warrington seem to have an open structure.

How do you know Wigan and Saints have this supposed structure?

How do you know Warrington don’t?

because I know pretty much how much players cost.

Care to elaborate for Saints or Wigan?

What are the 3 structures?
What is the median?
What is the range?
What players in each?

to be fair I do think hes right, Rads has spoken about it in the past

He will know though his contacts, maybe not exactly but he'll be pretty close.

I'd be convincing him to go to Aus, one of the few who could really succeed down there and would get $$$$$.

Too old at 31

I think he’d find it pretty tough over there tbh. They’re used to big guys like that and due to his rep over here, he’d have a massive target on him. I suppose it depends what the expectations were on him but if people expected him to smash teams apart in the NRL, like he does here, they’d be disappointed IMO.

Without a shadow of a doubt.

He'd be good, but no better than a Klemmer or even Tom Burgess (a player I really rate).

I actually thought Luke Thompson was a better prop & he's been decent enough in the NRL. Can't really see why AW would perform better, especially at his age.

As long as he does the bizzo in the world cup

Let's hope he doesn't "get injured".

No saints games then so i doubt it.

Walmsley is much better than Thompson. Very different players but I know which one I would have preferred to keep! (setting aside age obviously)

That's really interesting to hear. Why so? I always saw Thompson as a player with a much bigger upside.

Walmsley would be one of the best props in the NRL.

Too many British fans view NRL players as gods, all the top super league players (particularly forwards) would also be top/very good NRL players.

I absolutely agree with all that and it frustrates the life out of me how we do down our own players. My point above was simply that he wouldn’t have it all his own way over there like he does here. Would he be one of the top ten props in the NRL? Yes I think he would. Would he dominate with ease and be almost unstoppable as he seems here? No, not in my opinion. He would have some ups and downs.

Agree 100%

Because he left them and upset their feelings

I think you only need to look at Walmsley's performances since Thompson left to know why so. He's been absolutely phenomenal.
