Super League clubs have approved an increase to the salary cap as well as dispensations
Cameron Artis-Payne Youth Jersey to slow the player drain from English rugby league and attract more top talent to the competition. The ?1.825m wage ceiling has risen only slightly since its introduction in 1999. In contrast NRL teams are allowed to spend around ?4m per season on salaries.

Plans concerning “new returning talent” from other sports – such as the Wasps and former St Helens player Kyle Eastmond – were given the go-ahead and it is understood their salaries would be exempt from the cap for their first two seasons back in rugby league.
