Well we know which club we can thank for the general trend in
wages.

Former club captain, former England captain, recent
international... I doubt his wages dropped that quickly.

Current club captain!
He'll be 34 when his new contract starts - I'd say 200k is a
damn good wage for a player his age despite his track record.

I think 200k is very low for a player with his record, club
history, international history, and recent status. Incredibly
low.

That was my point in an above post - it was surprising to hear
someone (an ex-player I think) say that older players' salaries
are nothing like we'd imagine, to the point where they can end
up back on a similar wage to when they were recent academy
graduates.
Besides that, I just don't think it's prudent to pay a player
who's well past his prime based on his prior achievements and
record.

I agree that older players salaries are lower, but Robshaw is a
different story. There's very few players with his record, his
caps, his captain history, etc. I wouldn't expect Brown to be on
his money, or Care.

I'd say Robshaw is still great value and gives as much as any
player on the pitch. Brown was playing well last season, but it
remains to be seen if he can maintain that post injury. Care,
sadly, seems to have fallen off a cliff.
On the subject of Robshaw, it was a rare occurrence that he went
off injured. How often has that happened? For a player who's
always in the thick of the action, he's been incredibly
resilient.

Robshaw is worth his salary, but I think Brown will struggle
coming back after this season and on that high end money its
not worth it and id look to bring a new FIRST choice fullback
over the summer Quins law dictates if we dont, Brown probably
will re-aggravate his injury and we go round in a circle again.
Care is the one that saddens me the most in his decline. Its
almost like once he knew the WC ship had sailed he had no real
motivation left. Despite his advancing years I was hoping more
of an Andy Gomarsall type showing with all that experience and
class being apparent but instead his kicking game has fallen
apart and as usual spends most of his time at Rucks with his
arms out moaning

He's had a few injuries in the last few seasons, and this is the
first season where he's actually played poorly reasonably often.
There's absolutely no way he wasn't considered one of the most
important players in the entire squad at the start of the
season. He'll be on a wedge, no doubt.

No wonder Robshaw is struggling for form. His spare keeps going
off and playing Captain America!
