Message: [QUOTE="broncos4life, post: 3680891, member: 7802"] It's not a rort, it doesn't doesn't work because it can't work. A salary cap can't work without a draft, it's as simple as that. The cap is a complimentary mechanism of a draft to stop the hording of talent but without the draft it has no way of dispersing talent fairly. To have it without a draft is pointless, but we are talking about the NRL so this shouldn't be surprising. Without a draft teams cannot get off the bottom because they can't get access to the best players without having to pay massive overs. There will always be some examples where a club can rise up in spite of it but that is planet aligning stuff where they picked up discards, or maybe over-paid for talent but they all end up working together really well either through coaching or just things clicking, but those are exceptions and often not sustainable. With a draft the worst teams get the first shot at the best talent coming through so if they scout and pick wisely the have the tools to improve. [/QUOTE]
