Seriously, no offence, we all need to get over this rugby union salary cap will steal all our players business. There is no doubting rugby as most team sports do, have players with short careers. Them players are always going to be looking to make what they can in that short space of time.
Fact - the super league doesn't make enough money collectively to compete/match RU salary caps whether it be in this country or France and it is unlikely it ever will.
Fact - if we continue to produce world class RL players they COULD see RU as a pot of gold & jump ship
We will never change the above. I for one firmly believe when one talented player leaves RL if all clubs are investing properly in youth development a future replacement for that player will sprout up. I certainly won't stop watching RL no matter which player decides to try his hand at RU.
It's time we stopped worrying about what other sports are doing and concentrate on supporting our own
