Quote ="morpeth rhino"The NRL salary cap isnt about saving clubs from themselves though is it. If melbourne hadnt been caught do you think they would have gone out of business of course not. The NRL cap is about an arbitrary limit suppressing a free market which is supposed to level the playing field. The unintended consequence of that is that clubs who are clearly entirely solvent and can more than afford to buy and keep stars are prevented from doing so and when it comes to a player with the selling power of inglis the NRL effectively and artificially prices itself out of the sporting market.'"
I think the SL cap is designed for the same reasons to try and level the playing field so that the smaller clubs can compete on a (more level) playing field
