Latest Rumours

From 2017 -

A football department cap of $5.7 million will be introduced from next year after a meeting of club chief executives and NRL boss Todd Greenberg yesterday.

It was agreed that the figure will be lifted by four per cent in the next three years to enable staff to be given CPI salary rises.

Clubs will have until 2020 to get under the salary cap, and if they do not they will be taxed 37 per cent tax on whatever they overspend by.

Head coach and assistant coach salaries are included, as are training camps. Operational costs will also come out of the cap but not capital costs of centre of excellence.

NRL head of strategy David Silverton said it was an important move to curtail the rising costs of running club football departments.

2016 NRL CLUBS FOOTBALL DEPT. SPENDING
SPENDING CLUBS
$8M+ Raiders, Eels
$7M+ Bulldogs, Broncos, Rabbitohs, Roosters, Panthers
$6M+ Storm, Sea Eagles
$5M+ Knights, Cowboys, Dragons
$4M+ Tigers, Sharks
$3M+ Titans
Rich clubs will just pay the tax.
 
We may very well bounce back next year 🤞but there have been a fair few mid sides getting their shit together over the past year or two we’ll have to factor in.
A few teams under performed compared to their roster this year and I would expect them to really climb the ladder in 2025. Parra maybe, Dragons and Broncos for sure. With the potential of climbing the ladder in 2025 I think we are best placed via just one signing, Wayne Bennett.
 
We all want the best but sometimes us fans think we can just pay someone "x" amount and they will come to Souths.

For some players, coaches etc money isnt the deciding factor...

Exactly, and some of those who have used that very sentiment have done so to ridicule the club and their staff
