According to Senior reporter Phil 'Buzz' Rothfield told Big Sports Breakfast on Monday morning that the Roosters are in fact $400,000 under the salary cap for this season.

 

I believe the NRL salary cap auditors should be investigated with the Rotters there is no way that they are under the cap.

  • I totally Agree.  The game is structurally corrupt.   It was Ken Athurson,Bob Fulton and John Quale for MANLY in the 70s,80s and 90s.  It was News Ltd for the Storm in the Naughtys and ol mate (Greenburg) for the dogs and now its the Rorters now.    Parra will never be in a fair playing field,   We were stupid enough to think we could hoodwink the league with dumbos in our front office the failed plumber spangnlo and the like.  We didnt have the smarts to compete unfairly and we got busted for it 2016.        

    • Cool story bro

      except Quayle was ex-parra player . Guess throws that theory out

      • But was a Roosters player for 4 years and was never a parra fan

         

    • that's why AFL is ahead of the NRL the AFL have a fair playing level when it comes to recruitment by their clubs the NRL so called salary cap only enforced on certain clubs.

      if this continues to happen it would be only a matter of time for the code to die and become something of the past.

       

  • Ideal outcome ... Bateman signs with Roosters, and picks up a season ending injury first game. Roosters then get busted for salary cap rorting, and Raiders drown in their own tears, with each competing for the spoon

  • TPAs are a load of BS and provide a legal way to rort the salary cap (what's the point of a cap?) and to continue the imbalance between clubs. There's constant articles about expansions etc to improve the game - just get rid of TPAs first so there is a more even spread of talent across the clubs and therefore more even success across the clubs.
