They have the same salary cap as everyone else in the country

Whether exchange rate and cost of living in Canada puts them at an advantage is one for the Canadian based posters to comment on.

Do they have a better squad than anyone in super league?

Thanks for clearing that up.. So which two players are the marquee signings ? Taylor £400k per season,Sims won't be there for a butty £200k.. £340k on the cap,is that right.

I see your point,you would think their recruitment would be building for SL at this point.

Have no idea what they earn, but would be surprised if Sims is on a marquee signing salary

Hard to figure out any foreign exchange impact as unlikely that the funding will be in Canadian dollars, nor the payments. If they are smart, they will be hedging the currency risk at least a year in advance to mitigate the risk.

Pretty sure Brierleys signing stated something about a marquee player - they now seem to have a top 2 champ side, but a SL to be ????

Possibly so, he had a 5 year contract at Hudds. These guys are not playing for peanuts,although given some of the signings,some have to be.
