Certainly, it would make a difference to the Victorian clubs. After all, the playing field is not close to equal here either.
It was kind of a tongue in cheek suggestion...
but if they did stick together it would be on a pretty average wage.
The salary cap would mean that some of the players would need to take less than they could get elsewhere.
It won't happen but if such system came in the competition would even itself out fairly quickly.
The inequality and loss of players at the moment is largely because we haven't gone to a full representation of teams up until now.
Once that settles and we should see a stability amongst playing groups...and salary restrictions and opportunities will determine movement.
