Any chance we can cut the crap out, and start posting rumours.

It's all twizzle's fault for including crap in the title.

If you ask the NRL about salary stuff they'll tell you that "large variances" between years is simply not allowed. The only variances permitted in salaries involve 'reasonable variance'

So don't believe all the talk of "front loaded" and "back loaded" contracts that the papers spew out. Those guys have no idea.


So a 600k over 2 year deal would not be registered if it was submitted as 200k in year 1 and 400k in year 2.
But 275 and 325 would be allowed.

Exactly. And we're talking about making room to upgrade a player. So if a guy (Sio or DCE) is contracted for this year on peanuts, he can be offered a big money extension starting this year. So the player's club doesn't need to wait until next year (after the existing contract expires) before upgrading the player, which is what gives the club the advantage over rival clubs in signing the player for future years - the fact they can upgrade him in the current season.

This is why clubs let players go mid-year despite having nobody to replace them - to make room for upgrades.
