To be honest and I could be completely off the mark I cannot see other than publicity why they would be offering what would presumably need to be serious money to any player who has not been playing RL recently? If they have that much to spend I would be looking to the NRL.

Possibly they might be looking at a young fringe first team player/s as i don't think they could afford any first team regulars at Saracens

Sorry to pick up what is not a fairly old story however I was reading some more about the Saracens "issue" last week". Like a few I have been quick to criticise the RFL however the Union with significantly more resource seem to in a total mess.

Allegedly there were salary cap breaches a few years ago so they raised the cap rather than dealing with it. There is seemingly no real time salary cap checks and the fact that Saracens reportedly had a choice of relegation rather than opening their financial accounts is a, very telling and b, to me quite bizarre.

This and a player last year failing two drug tests and only getting a six month ban for the second suggest a lack of governance aka a free for all.

Saying they they took relegation rather the opening the books suggests to me they have something seriously to hide.
