I have thought about this over the last few days since Melbourne have been caught rorting the current salary cap system and I think the Cap needs a rehaul.
I don't know if this would work but I thought I would toss up the idea.
I think the cap needs to have a a value based on a player rating system.
i.e instead of having a money cap there is a cap which is made up of how good players are.
For this to happen players need to have a value based on there talent.
Im not too sure how this would be worked out but you would need a group of people who work out all players values maybe based on how many rep games they've played and their statistics.
So for example Benji Marshall might have a value of $400'000.
The tigers can pay him whatever they want but there top 25 players value can only add up to
whatever the cap restriction is.
To reward teams for building there own juniors or spotting talent before others a player should be rated once they are first put into a teams top 25 and there value will remain the same as long as they remain at that same team.
E.g because we bought marshall before any other team when he first played his rating might be 100'000.
he would retain that value whilst he stays at the tigers. But say Marshall signs for Cronulla he would be
re-valued at $400'000.
It is only an idea and I have only thought about it a little but I think it could work. It would let players receive more money but still maintain a fairness between teams and how equal they are in regards to talent.
Your welcome to add ideas or suggestions or just shoot me down. :slight_smile:
