There is also the 600K Marquee Player allowance outside of the Cap that may be paid by Club affiliated sponsors ..again to 1 player or spread among a number of players..
Did Farah is his final years with WT draw the same benefit - it seems not. Why not?
Who cares if he did? It's just salary cap mechanics. They get paid their contract, it's not like it matters if some is from long-serving allowance or marquee allowance, it's all just money in the cap. Don't worry your precious obsession wasn't cheated out of a dime…
I got the impression that Chris' salary was exempt from the cap as he has 8 years of service notched up and that Robbie also had 8 years notched up so his salary could be exempt also. Is it a total of $300K or $300K each player.
The post also shone light on how the back-ending occurred. Sheensy wanted to go out in a blaze of glory with a few more Grand Finals under his belt - but My Precious Obsession copped the blame years later.
Total of. Your Highness' contract was done under Potter, who recommended only two further years.
