Aus $700000 is £387000 so that would put us in the game if the cap mattered, but technically as a union convert, I think he'll be cap exempt, so he's open season for every RL club.


No, no he's not cap exempt. Read the new talent pool rules for further details:

the none-koukash version of the rules wrote:
E1:5:12‘New Talent Pool Players Allowance’
The intention behind this allowance is to remove any disincentive Clubs might feel in considering signing untried players from Rugby League development areas and/or other sports.

The RSCM will administer the allowance in pursuit of this intention in the event of any cases where there is a doubt as to whether the individual in question should qualify for an allowance.

An allowance against the calculation of a player’s Salary Cap Value is available under the provisions of this clause 5.14 as follows:

(a) a person who:
(i) has attained age 19 on 31st August prior to the start of the season (e.g. 31st August 2012 for the 2013 season),
(ii) has not played Rugby League at any age group or level, subject to the RSCM’s ability to use his reasonable discretion to override this restriction so that, non-exhaustively, it would ordinarily apply only to those who have not:

(a) played Rugby League for any participant club or team in a national 1st tier senior grade competition (including for example, the European Super League, UK Championships, any of the Australian NRL competitions, French Elite Championship, New Zealand’s national competitions),
(b) played for a team in a national Rugby League development competition (including non-exhaustively, the RFL’s Academy competitions and the NRL’s National Youth Competition), and/or
(c) participated in and/or played RFL Scholarship age group Rugby League (or any equivalent Rugby League programmes based in other countries not covered in (ii) (a) or (b) above)

shall, for the purposes of the allowance set out in this clause 5.13, be known as a ‘New Talent Pool Player’,

(b) subject to (c) below, where a Club registers a New Talent Pool Player, that player’s Salary Cap Value will be reduced in accordance with the following provisions:
(i) in respect of the period up to the end of the New Talent Pool Player’s first full Salary Cap Year with the Club, his Salary Cap Value will be reduced to £0 (and for the avoidance of doubt, where the New Talent Pool Player is registered on or after 1st February during a Salary Cap Year, that year will not count as the one full Salary Cap Year to which this allowance applies),
(ii) in respect of the period up to the end of the New Talent Pool Player’s second full Salary Cap Year, his Salary Cap Value will be reduced by 50%,

(c) the New Talent Pool Player allowance set out in (b) above is subject to the following conditions:
(i) Clubs are limited to 2 New Talent Pool Players to whom the New Talent Pool Players allowance can apply to at any time,
(ii) where a Club has more than 2 New Talent Pool Players registered, it may notify the RSCM as to which 2 of its New Talent Pool Players the allowance will apply,
(iii) for the avoidance of doubt, where a New Talent Pool Player moves to another Club the allowance is available to his new Club but shall not extend beyond the period it would have endured had he remained at his original Club.

I dont like Saints and certainly dont want them to win anything but I would be gutted to see Luke Walsh leave SL, he is a great player to watch.

To replace wheeler. If rumours are to be believed, were in the very strange position next year of having to replace all our senior halfbacks! Fwiw Walsh will see out his contract

My theory, because we have a play off system and a season long of medicroty doesn't rule you out of becoming champions. We are able to spend a big part of the season seeing which of the youngsters can cut it at SL level and which can't, then later in the season strengthen where applicable. Of course the club couldn't say that publicly as it would affect ticket sales.

I would think that could likely be the case. We have seen a fair bit of rotation with the younger lads and i think we can already see who looks likely to come through and cement their place in the first team. I like the look of the Evans boys but not so much Riley, for example. I would like to see more of Dwyer and i think it's time Currie really showed us what he's made of now.

Don't forget Currie is a teenager and a forward, I think people do need to put that in context.
Riley for such a big lad has awful leg drive and seems to have little strength.
England played well at Leeds but has had his injuries.
B.Evans hasn't stood out but equally hasn't done anything wrong.
Laithwaite is industrious but at the moment he's in that category that Mitchell/Tyke/Cooper/Blythe have been in. Good but are they good enough, take the Cooper route and good but he could go the other way.

Problem for Saints is Luke Walsh has put himself in the shop window by showing how good he is and once the big clubs start circling it becomes a question of can they keep hold of him, like Briers in the Challenge Cup run of 1997.

That figure has been batted about and others.

Tony Smith a couple of weeks before the season started was asked on local radio if Warrington had any further signings?
He answered that he didn't have but said there was room in the cap for further signings if needed.
I heard that myself.

He didn't say £400,000 though. What a load of rubbish. Have you been hearing the voices again?
