It's based on population and also positions on the ladder.
Obviously the higher you finish the less you have.
So for a club like BD which has relied heavily on imports in the past, a premiership could mean they lose an import or two....
Thats basically it without going into specifics, which I haven't got handy. Although given that Tanunda got caught this year, there must also now be a salary componet - which fits as a couple of years ago clubs started reducing/removing match payments for locals.
