Whilst I agree with you, I don't think we know what the club have offered (unless you're saying that is under £10k) to him to renew.

Assuming we have offered to increase that to, say £15k, which is still cheap as chips, would you say we should pay him £45k???

A compromise ought to be reached. Double with incentives perhaps. Still I believe if a contract had been forthcoming sooner the agent definitely wouldn't be asking for triple, but thats the gamble Trinity took.



Is there still the requirement that as soon as a youngster plays 25 games they automatically go onto a minimum of £25k?

it isn't quite that straightforward and it isn't that much! heard that there is a bit more plus a job offer which takes it to a larger amount!

Well I would say that depending on the job offer then it could be a good deal. Playing careers are not that long and if the job gives him some experience and trainign in something that he could do after Rugby I would think that would be good for a young player.



having said that, I don't know what the offer is, if it's cleaning the loos then obviously there's no future merit in that.

The lad himself was a bit upset that this was being discussed on Twitter last night - it's probably a bit unseemly to be taking about the small details, given his age and the issues involved.



When I negotiate my salary, I don't usually have an audience of anonymous people chipping in their thoughts!

yeah right....Uncle Kath will be joining him on a club freebie as well !

Agar funds these trips himself - he's looking at new coaching developments in Aus as well as trying to unearth a few hidden gems; the goodwill of players like Collis, Aiton, Smith & Poore won't do him any harm in that endeavour.



If he comes back with another of the same quality of any of the above, I take my hat off.

Well if you had the decency to tell us when your pay review was, I'm sure we'd all chip in with our view

It's not a mistake by the club then.

Fortunately, I only negotiate with myself and my accountant these days, so I won't be inviting views from RL Fans!



Thanks for the offer though

Anyone got any ideas which two players Agar as put offers in for?
