Please Listen to the other side of the argument





Nobody is saying there shouldn't be a salary Cap (Apart from maybe BK

)



What people are saying is that it should be a % of the Turnover of a Particular club i.e



If a Club Turns over 10M Why can't they spend 5M

If a Club Turns over 4M They Spend 2M



Something similar to that would encourage clubs to concentrate on Building there Business/Club rather than Leeching off the other clubs with Better Youth Policies etc.



There are Numerous other suggestions Like Rogues who says a % of a Players Wages Shouldn't be counted if he was Club trained encouraging the use of more Home Grown Players.

It's a shame it will never happen, then we could prove you are Soooooooooo Wrong!

I wouldn't say about the Turnover, as bigger clubs now are always going to have the advantage, with more fans and more retail revenue.



However, I would definitely say that Home grown players shouldn't count on the salary cap. I would also bring in a stipulation that states only a certain amount of money can be spent on the wages of foreign players.

Trust Rogues to bring Saints into it once again.

His fascination of everything Saints is becoming scary.

It must be his age.

Ha Ha HA Ha Ha!

I must visit Doctors as My sides are Splitting!



Take Lyon & Gidley out of the Saints team of the last 4 years & There would have been drastically different outcomes to many many games!



Bearing in mind the Overall improvement of our competition can surely only be tested by our National Sides performances would you like to tell me How we are improving??????

as it stands now, how many clubs have turnover of more than say £6m - i will give you a clue, the answer is Leeds. All other clubs would be spendingn a similar level to that they are on now, to varying degrees.

we didnt beat the Aussies back in the days of non-salary cap.

We didn't get embarrassed 52-4 though.

Don't totally disagree, my only point being that as it is we have had a Stagnant Competition in terms of Quality for the last 3 or 4 years and I feel "Something" needs to be done. I have a few thoughts and so do many others.



Hypothetical



Leeds Pick up 7 or 8 bad injuries, start losing many,many games, crowds drop off, they lose revenue even though they may have had the Business foresight to Make Millions over the past 3/4/5 years they can't use this to reinvest in playing standards to keep their success up on the field etc.

Sorry as this pre 96 (And You may not obviously count this as Ever Happening!) but didn't we beat them 88/90/92/94 etc and didn't we consistantly challenge them closely??? Avoiding Mullerings almost Completely!

And what incentive have they got to improve on that ???

it's a double edged sword for me. standards in top flight league have gone backwards over here whilst in the NRL theyve improved in all areas; fitness, technique, tactics, coaching.
