My understanding is that most clubs have not signed on with the NRL beyond this year so if 5 clubs refuse to sign the game is in shit. If the 5 stick solid the NRL has no option but to raise the cap to $9.6m
Dib is putting all his Dim Sims in one basket

The NRL told clubs to work based on a Salary Cap of $9.3m. Most clubs did, some clubs thought the cap would end up closer to $10m and spent accordingly.
Grant told the clubs twice it would be $13 million. Clubs recruited based in that number. Then they changed the goal posts and dropped it.

You can't do that and expect clubs to be compliant.

It's be the same as if NRL said "cap is now $6 million" and pushed everyone over.

But if every club was over the suggested cap then wouldn't they all be at the meeting demanding that the NRL increase the salary cap to $10m?

The fact that only a few clubs went/were invited suggests that 11 clubs don't want the cap at $10m only those clubs that have already over spent and are trying to recover the situation without having to lose players
