Peter The Storm didn't just break the salary cap the
blew it apart.To all those who have continued to say
that they were harshly and
unfairly treated by the
NRL,what say you now.They
win the 2007 Premiership over the cap by $500,000approx.The win the
2009 Premiership over the cap
by $1million...and for those
who continue to say that they
bought players that no
other club wanted and made
them into Premiership
material...they got those
players by paying them
money when they were over,
way over,the cap...Greg
Inglis was set to leave in
2008 until The Storm upper their offer knowing full
well that they were already
over the cap,thus preventing
another club from having
him as a member of their
team...legally!!
It makes me sick.They say
the want to keep the"big
four"for next season and
build a team around them.
How?The salary cap is $4.6
million.There already over
for next season by $1.3 that
leaves $3.3.The"big four"
even at market value add
up to $2.2 that leaves $1.3
that has to cover 21 players
making up the 25 of a roster.
The basic payment for a player is $55,000 but
not all players will accept
that...a lot will want
between $60,000 and $90,000
It doesn't add up no matter
how you slice and dice it.
And it isn't over yet...
not by a longshot!!cherie alexander Thursday 15 July, 2010 - 5:17 PM
