ROB WAINWRIGHT W Hartlepool and Scotland
IT WOULD be nice to get some reward for the effort we put in,
but the way things work out with sponsorship and such, we get paid
to a certain extent, anyway. In the internationals that I played in
last year, for playing or being on the bench you were given a
certain amount. It goes into a trust fund and is then released and
we pocket it at the end of the year. I can't remember the figure;
they were bandying about pounds 750, but I think it was less. I
believe most countries are setting up this trust-fund idea.
I'm undecided about the advance of professionalism, but in most
of the main rugby-playing countries, amateurism is paid lip-service
anyway. ...
