I am starting this thread because as a doggies supporter I just cannot get over this rubbish we are being put through because of this so called Salary cap. I know people on here have the knowledge of what it is and others have there opinion on what it is all well and good but without doing any research on this I want to give my two bobs worth and appreciate everyone’s comments.
My understanding is each club had 30 players signed and registered within the cap. Not sure the exact amount but approx 3.8 mil per club per year. All this talk about tpas, back ended deals whatever. If we say 20 are on $200,000 per year thats 4 mil shit I’m already over. Say then 20 @ $150,000 each thats $3mil... 10 to go . ..? What do u think there on ? Don’t hear off too many players on $150,000 per year But there would be I guess... now we just lost a few players who were on like close to a mil each,, just dosent add up does it. I don’t see other clubs like sharks or Roosters with a team full of juniors on $150,000 per year the opposite have quite a few high paid players..I guess I’m being a smartie and just wonder how the nrl regulates this cap. Do they ? Some here say they do.. well wonder why the dogs are in such a mess.. yes it is the dogs fault as well. I get that..why not prevent this before it happens.. are not all these players registered with the nrl when a contract is complete. How hard is it for the nrl to keep a register for each club. I am sure they have enough people working for them.
For me if the cap is 4mil per year or 10 mil per year that’s it,nothing else no tpas nothing else if you can’t afford the cap on your bike mate off you go. At least we are all playing the same game. It’s up to the clubs with sponsors to raise the money. Welcome to be educated by others on here and appreciate all comments and prefer if kennelers not abuse other members for there thoughts.
