Message: [QUOTE="Number6, post: 2937208, member: 9008"] Over the NRL bulls***. They crack on about how the salary cap makes it even and brought in football cap for same dubious purpose. How does crap teams paying overs on young but not well proven talent lead to success? Once in a while it is worth it but usually just speculation. Since it’s apparently legal to limit players income by a cap for the good of the comp perhaps it’s ok to limit wages of players under age 21... maybe max 100 or 150 per year as direct payments and any overs must go to retirement account and super so they don’t go silly with their cash and less appealing to move for quick buck. Hell all player under 25 should probably give 30% into delayed payments and maybe 50% over 250k per year since their brain hasn’t fully developed until then. At least there is some evidence behind the fact that young men do stupid crap till they mature as opposed to a cap which has zero evidence and rationale for improving quality of NRL by making everyone as mediocre as the next. Think 5% discount for your own junior. 1% per year each year player on your roster. 5% discount after 30, plus 5% after 33 or 34. One club player over 30 could get 20% discount. Not too much to distort market but enough to keep talent in own club. [/QUOTE]
