So the investigation/report found some clubs had been complaing that there playing budgets are unsustainable etc - How about then if you can't afford it don't pay the money and be selective with your recruiting.
The root of this problem I am confident in saying is the points system, if it didn't exist then player payments would never have escalated to the levels they have. Sure some clubs are still going to spend some money and certain players are still going to earn big $ but there would be a direct correlation with the introduction of the points system and the escalation of player payments, which has been discussed on numerous threads on this site.
The stuff they are talking about in relation to the salary cap just places more burden on local clubs and volunteers with the threat of fines, loss of points ATO investigations, give me a break who the hell do they think they are, hope all clubs have some accountants willing to chip in sometime.
