I can't remember which thread it was in, it was linked here and it did stipulate that a minimum of the cap had to be spent.

It was said you have to spend 90 percent of the cap they also say it came in because the Tigers keep spending way under the cap when Sheens was in charge for the first 7 years the money they give you is for the players not for running of club
And That is now why the clubs want the grant to be 2 million above the cap so they can spend the money running the club

i belive its closer to 94-96% of the cap
And also talking about the cap the comments about Tim Sheens destroyed the cap is absolutely B/S what player was still at the club on the books that Sheens help sign or resign in 2015 it was only Lawrence and some of Blairs money and 2016 only Lawrence the current managing of the cap is still B/S
And how many of the current players resign with the current board I would say over 70 percent so how can they keep on blaming others
Don't buy what they are selling

The breaches of the salary cap and salary floor regulations outlined by the NRL are exceeding the salary cap, **falling below the salary floor**, not informing the NRL of payments, late or incorrect lodgement or loss of documents relating to player financial and contract details or engaging in contract tampering. Trading cash for players is also prohibited to prevent wealthier clubs from evading the salary cap and salary floor regulations.

Had the regulations link from the NRL somewhere but can't find it for now will keep looking…from memory Clubs must spend 96% of the Cap each season...Introduced in 2010..

I wrote to ther NRL directly about this a few months ago and got this reply:
_"Below is the top tier and second tier salary cap info, and increases for the 2016 season;\
\
TOP 25 2015 2016\
\
Salary Cap Base 5,350,000 5,600,000
Sponsor Servicing Allowance 200,000 200,000
Veteran Player Allowance 250,000 300,000
Marquee Player Allowance 600,000 600,000
Motor Vehicle Allowance 100,000 100,000
TOP 25 TOTAL SALARY CAP 6,500,000 6,800,000\
\
NRL SECOND TIER SALARY CAP 460,000 480,000\
\
There is a minimum spend on the Top 25, it is a requirement of the 2013-17 Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA).\
\
The CBA is an agreement between the Rugby League Players Association (RLPA)and the NRL, with the Players and the NRL Clubs bound by it.\
\
In 2015, the minimum Top 25 spend is $5,895,000 per Club.\
\
The top tier salary cap applies to the top 25 players from each club, and any other operations staff fall outside of the cap.\
\
Teams cannot 'stockpile' money from the cap for future years.\
\
We are not in a position to comment on the Salary Cap position or CBA compliance of an individual Club as that is a matter between the Club, the NRL and the RLPA."_
Hope it helps…

I asked a Bulldogs employee & he said that the "tigers had discussions with Klemmers team but there was no offer(the Dragons were the only club to put in a formal offer) as his asking price was to be guaranteed not including TPA's(as TPA's are not guaranteed). He also said that he signed with the dogs for lower than what he was asking,but at least he knows he will be getting paid"(laughing).
NSW Blues State of Origin star David Klemmer requests release from Canterbury Bulldogs
Michael Chammas

Canterbury's best forward could be on his way out of the club, with NSW Origin and Test prop David Klemmer requesting a release from his deal at the Bulldogs.
In a huge blow to Canterbury's future aspirations, it appears Klemmer could be on his way out of Belmore at the end of the season after seeking a release from the final three years of his contract.
Fairfax Media understands at the heart of Klemmer's frustrations is a perception he has been left short-changed after the club failed to commit to a number of financial arrangements previously agreed upon.
The club is trying to make sure Klemmer is compensated for the deal coming undone, but he is no guarantee to be at the Bulldogs next year.
**It is also understood Klemmer's future as a starting player at the Bulldogs has recently been questioned by the club, who had been considering shifting the international forward to the bench next year to accommodate the arrival of Aaron Woods alongside Aiden Tolman and James Graham in the run-on 13.**
Klemmer is considered one of the best forwards in the NRL and would not have any trouble landing a deal for 2018 and beyond if the Bulldogs are unable to keep him satisfied.
**Wests Tigers showed interest in luring the 23-year-old the last time he was off contract and Klemmer would be a handy pick-up for the joint venture to go with the acquisition of Russell Packer and Ben Matulino in a new-look forward pack at the club next season.**
While Klemmer's departure would cruel the prop of the chance to play alongside close friend Woods, Klemmer is very close to Josh Reynolds, who will leave the Bulldogs at the end of the season bound for the Tigers.
**It is understood Klemmer was disappointed the club did not do more to keep Reynolds, who is regarded as the heart and soul of the Canterbury outfit.**
Woods and Reynolds will be in Klemmer's bridal party when he gets married to the mother of his three children after this year's World Cup at the end of the season.
Canterbury have massive salary cap constraints for next season and are already expected to part ways with Sam Kasiano and Greg Eastwood at the end of the year to make room for Woods and Kieran Foran.
Graham, who has been linked with a move to Newcastle after reports the Bulldogs captain had been shopped around, is now likely to remain at the club – especially if Klemmer departs at the end of the season.
The Bulldogs this week extended the contract of fullback Will Hopoate for another three seasons, the former NSW representative agreeing to play games on Sundays despite a desire to sit out matches on the sabbath because of his religious beliefs.
If Klemmer is granted a release, it would go a long way to alleviating Canterbury's salary cap concerns for next year, with only hooker Michael Lichaa among the high-profile off contract players at the end of this year.
Klemmer was arguably NSW's second best forward behind Blues prop Andrew Fifita in the opening game of the State of Origin series on Wednesday night, proving why he is held in such high regard by Kangaroos coach Mal Meninga.
The All Saints Toongabbie Tigers junior made his NRL debut in 2013, graduating from the Bulldogs' under-20s team where he was crowned the competition's most valuable player in 2012.
He has played for his state on seven occasions and represented Australia in nine matches since making his debut for the Kangaroos as a 20-year-old in 2014.

This would be the funniest turn of events ever…Klemmer it's a YES from me....get in his ear Josh....
Yes I would laugh for a week if this happened!
This would be a drop the mic moment if it happened
I'd probably die of laughter if it happened. It's a massive yes for me to have Klemmer in our pack.
