Really? So is one of these going to get stripped of a premiership if found guilty? I doubt it. Would love to know what club has been rolled in this investigation. Time will tell i guess...a lot of clubs have just got more creative with how they pay if they are over the cap.
I find it very hard to believe the big budget clubs in leagues such as kntfl can go from 200-250k budget down to 45-60k in 1-2 years and still recruit quality but good luck to them. It appears the city clubs with high population to gather players from just cant create the same atmosphere and sense of community at their games as they can out in the country and instead of work harder and raise more money they just cry about it.
I come from a financially successful club with a small population however we must spend shitloads of money to attract players prepared to travel just to survive let alone be competitive. If our club decides to work hard and raise the money in order to keep our club and community alive it should be our choice on how we spend it.
Looks like proposed salary cap in vic is triple in most country leagues to that of s.a so be interesting to see how many big name s.a footballers start making the trek over the border to greener pastures over next few years.
