    BOD or Wilko? :D:D:D:D:D o lol

    Does he mean a 50k salary being the highest?! If so I don't imagine they would have a hope in hell of getting anybody.

    As for guys going to League, I doubt they would want to but BOD has said in the past he likes it. More people prefer Union to League and for that reason League will struggle to compete financially. IMO the best thing SL teams can do is abide by their salary cap and develop the game that way, not take a huge financial gamble.

    I think he means exceeding their cap by 50k or a % in order to accomodate marque RU signings.

    I'd love to see BOD in RL, I think he was tempted a while back as well, and it is something which would interest him.

    Glad he's in RU though.

    Union clubs have been plucking league's biggest names since their game turned professional in 1995.

    ROTFLMAO!!!

    Oh, the hurt outrage!!! Like League hadn't been poaching many of Union's top stars since time immemorial. Or at least, those who earned their livings in coal mines and factory shop floors.

    Let 'em go. Who the hell watches League anyway? Sure, it's popular in Australia but then, so is the mullet haircut. Australia's main value to popular culture is to give the rest of the world a preview of what terrible fashions to avoid.
