Bunker officials should have been dropped, as well.

Yes! Didn't Gee explain to outraged dragons captain that the reason there was no sin bin was because the bunker had made the call??

There isn’t a fix.

The reality is, this comp will never be truly even. All of the top clubs are always going to be able to attract star players, especially for less, because there’s a higher chance of success at those clubs and a higher chance of playing rep footy.

You can bring in a draft, but modern footy players are fickle people. They won’t stand for a system that could send them to a club they hate.

In saying that, the salary cap isn’t the issue.

The issue is there aren’t enough quality coaches and there aren’t enough quality admins in the game.

Look at where the Panthers were before they became the side they did. They were struggling to make the finals each year. Now they are on the verge of a dynasty.

Why? Because when Gould came in they recognised the problems and they fixed the problems. Now they are reaping the rewards of that years of hard work.

Can you tell me a professional comp or sport where this isn’t the case?

We do a hell of a lot better than rugby, soccer, basketball when it comes to competitiveness

The draft seems to work well in AFL, but I understand that the Dennis Tutty successful challenge all those years ago throws a legal spanner into it.

If you had a choice of 500k to play for the Storm or 800k for the Tigers, Id take a pay cut to play for the Storm


Its better to be judged by 12 then carried by 6.

In situations like that the highest bid value should be the value that goes against the cap wherever the player plays. That’s their market value.

Signing a player for unders because you offer ‘other intangible benefits’ circumvents the money based design of the cap. They ‘other intangible benefits’ actually has a $300k value in your example.

Auction the players value, then they chose a club?

There isn't. We do a lot better than the soccer for example.

Apart from the Titans, every team has played in a GF since the NRL formed in '98. Some teams more often, but that's because they are the well run clubs that have really good development systems in place, good recruiters and good coaches to make the players the best they can be.

If clubs tried to game it, it could backfire if they push up the price and end up with the player…
