The SC applies not to the highest paid 20 in the squad but the highest paid 25.
That includes U21 or U20 players at most clubs.
They need to be excluded from the SC IMO.
If we want to compete with the NRL on the field then we've to compete with them off it too.
U20s off the SC asap!
I think under 21s as long as they are not your highest earners.
This means that more young players would leave though due to us not being able to pay them when they reach a certain age.
I would have 3 parts of the cap, one for young players through the system, one for foreign players (anyone not from this country
), and english players bought from other clubs. Leave enough room on the foreign players cap for 2 world class players.
