    What a farce the salary cap is.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        I'm confused TD. Are you unhappy with our salary cap or Sydney's salary cap.

        Two very different things.

            If Sydney can pay 2 players +$1 Million a season each then surely many of their other players must be well underpaid. All the other clubs should target their players with offers that will far outstrip what Sydney can afford, even with their BS cost of living allowance.

                Sydney's COLA is a farce.

                    Simple really. It's more important to win over fair weather rugby fans than give the folks who follow AFL in Western melbourne an even chance.

                    How else should we take it?

                        If the AFL were consistant, surely they say it's cheaper to live in Geelong & as such reduce their salary cap accordingly. Won't happen, but it annoys me how they continue to prop the game up in NSW!

                            Bud to the Swans along with Tippett strikes me as the beginning of the end for the famous Bloods culture.

                                COLA or not there must be a lot of senior Sydney players being paid far less than what they could demand in the open market. Hopefully all 17 other clubs get stuck in.

                                    It has all to do with trying to outdo the other codes and become the most important football code in the country. All at the expense of grass roots supporters. What a frigging joke.

                                        So its simple lets get Hanna and Reid down to the dogs where they belong.

                                        Forget this Crameri stuff, the door is now open on the swans players.

                                                Plus they signed Reid to a 6 year deal on huge dollars when he looked like he may be the next big KPF in the AFL. They would be spending $3mil a season on 3 KPF's.
