With all these reasons for him not to be going, I'd say he's
half way out the door already.

I don’t think Kyle will be going anywhere at the moment as Quins
turned down saints offer to buy out the remainder of the 18
months he has left on his current contract

Phew!
(And I hope that it was Saints' speculation, not Sinck's
suggestion that started it all off... i.e. I hope he wants to
stay too)

So if Saints wanted him then presumably they'd have had to pay
18 months of his current contract, which I believe counts
towards the cap, plus you'd imagine a substantial wage increase
(unless Sinck is unhappy and wants to go even if it means a pay
cut, wehich seems unlikely), all counting towards the salary cap
as he can't be a marquee player. Given that I imagine he's on a
pretty huge amount as it is, they move would surely have
represented a huge chunk of their salary cap

They may have offered a player swap instead of a buyout: give us
Kyle and we'll give you two players in return.
Not sure who they've got that we would want - Lawes and Ribbans,
perhaps?

But we know they offered a buy out coz arniepie works for the
club.

The way I would read it, "Buy out" doesn't necessarily mean
purely financial compensation - it just means a deal to allow
termination of the contract without paying penalties. I'm just
looking at a way Saints could realistically have offered a deal
without creating an enormous salary cap headache.

I think any such deal would have to be looked at by the Celery
Cap commissioner (or whatever his title is) to ensure that the
letter and spirit of the Cap rules is maintained. You could make
a case that this would mean that *both* clubs were effectively
buying the remainder of the contracts out, so they would be
counted as part of the salary cap for both clubs.
