If sides win less than 6 games in any given season (could be 4) the following year they can reduce player contracts by 10%. (Around $1m on the current $10.37m cap)
This can be banked to try and attract free agents. This can be done for a maximum of 2 consecutive years.
I think it's plain wrong that Brisbane and Carlton's lists are earning the same amount of money as Adelaide and Richmond's lists.
I know the AFLPA wouldn't cop it but I reckon clubs at the bottom of the ladder should have scope to "bank" salary they aren't/shouldn't be paying players.
Wouldn't this just further encourage tanking?
I thought they already had it to a degree, isn't there a minimum 92.5% payment or something to that effect?
Weren't Port able to go over 100% in the years following they Ryder sit out as we hadn't spent 100% in that season?
