Quote: Father Ted "When Mo Lindsay was head of the RFL he proposed the SC as a way of trying to prevent clubs going bust and into administration, liquidation etc. At the time some clubs were spending 90% of their income on players salaries which was obviously unsustainable. That was the reason for the SC being implemented.
That was the sole reason for its introduction and on that basis it is reasonable for anyone to suggest that it is self evident the salary cap has failed. All these years and seasons on, clubs are still going into administration. This year it was the Bulls, last year Wakefield and Crusaders. All those clubs were subject to the SC yet went bust! So how can it be judged a success?

All the other matters it is now being given credit for such as the "level playing field" (whatever one of those is) were add ons some years later.

We don't need salary cap restrictions on our sport we need growth strategy objectives which each club in SL should have to meet. The RL business needs to grow and clubs should be required to show their plans for growth of Rugby League in their area.'"


The Salary Cap would have probably worked if it had stayed at 50% of a clubs income and not changed to a fix amount. Had it stayed at 50% then clubs wouldn't be able to spend money they don't have which they appear to be doing now by spending £1.6m

Quote: Father Ted "Wane was asked if he thought McGuire would get a ban. He gave his answer. Wane didn't prompt the issue a journo did. Just as McDermott didn't prompt the conversation about McGuire being on report, Hemmings did.'"
Whilst this desciptin of events could well be true and paints a different scene than the one of Wane jumping on the microphone to demand his opposition players are banned, don't we remeber the day when a coach would have said something like
"We're concentrating on our own game, not on Danny McGuire."

"I dont think Danny should have faced any games - just like Micky shouldnt have faced any games. But once The RFL have gone down that avenue like with Micky, they have set a precedent."

He remains firmly on-message, in that the myth being peddled is that both players committed identical offences, when any fair-minded and vaguely sentient person can see that they didn't.

Hey ho - to use a few Stevoisms, it should be a 'humdinger' or indeed, a 'wow of a game.'

What myth? All that's being said is that neither player should have faced a ban, there's no hint of the same or even similar offences.

Just like the myth's that can be read in the last week about Wigan, on this very page there's the myth of Sean O' not tackling below the neck for example.

Can Burrow actually play the ball without crawling forward out of the tackle?
