Message: [QUOTE="Sproj, post: 3255694, member: 8423"] Annersley's response to Dave's call for help from the NRL to retain developed players: NRL head of football Graham Annesley said the idea to provide salary cap dispensation so clubs can keep more juniors "is always worthy of debate" but there are several complicating factors to consider. "Some of our clubs don’t have big junior areas, for example, so they have to rely on buying players," Annesley said on Monday. "And where do those players come from? They come from other clubs. There’s also restrictions about salary caps and how many players you can have in your squad. "[B]You can’t keep them all, you can’t pay for them all.[/B] It’s always worthy of debate and there are always options that perhaps haven’t been considered in the past or different ways of structuring these things. "But ultimately, that’s not determined by the NRL football department. We would provide information to the [ARL] Commission, but that’s a policy decision and that’s a decision that would have to be dealt with by the Commission." Annesley added that as far as he was aware the Commission hasn’t discussed the issue in recent times. From nrl.com Funnily enough, he admits he would have nothing to do with the decision but still says it shouldn't happen because it won't benefit the Roos...I mean SOME clubs. Also notice the bolded bit? Funny how that only applies to most teams not named the Roos...I mean in general. [/QUOTE]
