If the RFL makes a million profit every year thats a start. Have a central contract system and pay for it with the money the RFL is making. £50k per player on average. Have reduced % on the cap per season a player which has come from the academy who you keep. Basically in 10 years nothing on the cap. More players we keep the more we challenge the OZ team the more revenue the RFL will make.

So if a player is on 50K and you reduce it 10% per year on a 2 year contract. in 2 years he will cost 30K on the contract but earn 50K. So when he comes to negotiate his next 2 year contract you pay him actually more than his worth if you can afford him knowing that 30% will come off the cap. The idea is that if the club can afford to pay more they can. Whilst the ones that cant can pay the player a bit less and use any additional savings from the % off the cap for other players.

So hyperthetically if this was done you would give the international player an extra 100k per year if the RFL and Club could afford it.

If by any chance you understand this please explain it to think i have confused myself.

What do we think of the central contract system what they have in place in Cricket? Do we think that could work to keep England stars like Tomkins x2, Gaskell, Lomax etc etc?

Of course it would work but RL is in a different and more difficult situation for two reasons: 1) The RFL doesn't have the available cash to top up the wages of entire Englnd squad and 2) cricket doesn't have any outside sports sniffing around trying to poach it's talent. Young English cricketers aren't being tempted to go and play baseball in the States are they? Their central contract system only exists to compensate county clubs for using their players to represent England for the majority of the cricket season

Obviously it would have to be tweaked to suit the RL situation but im sure its an option worth considering/exploring. The international game is whats holding our sport back. We need big blockbuster series' against the aussies and get sky onside to make a big deal of it because people love to see us battling with the Aussies. Thats a point quite a few people have made though.
