Maybe I've misunderstood you, but it seems like you constantly just completely ignore or don't understand the point just to argue. This is an example.
Let's break it down.
Two issues of money.
1) wages, what can or will be paid to a player
2) money paid to sign a player.
With the marquee spot we can literally pay a player whatever.
With a transfer we can literally pay a club whatever to sign said player.
So to say we can't be in to sign Tapau isn't right. I think you might have missed the earlier posters post regarding why it would we couldn't be in for Marty if we can't keep Bateman.

I’ve been back over the last few pages and in my original comment, I was agreeing with you that it wasn’t about wages. Perhaps I should have worded it differently? I’d also commented early in the thread that we could get T’Pau but only in our wildest dreams. Not because we can’t pay him marquee wages but because he could probably go wherever he wants in the NRL. Anyway, I’ll put this one down to a misunderstanding and believe me, I’ve got far better things to do than argue on a forum for the sake of it. I’ll not be commenting on this issue again.
