With the mid point of the 2010 NRL season upon us, the inner circle of the Rugby League community are affected by the NRL's decision to now move important dates to accomodate the issue involving the Melbourne Storm salary cap fiasco.
Player submission/registration dates have been pushed out to Round 17 so that the ongoing investigation at The Mebourne Storm, can be completed.
What does this mean to the players? It puts their lives and careers on hold AND more significantly, creates additional and unnecessary stress. Why? Because most NRL clubs are not recruiting until they see the player 'fallout' from the club, as it tried to off load over $1 million from it's 2011 salary cap.
To hasten the process the NRL have employeed an independant company, Deloittes, to review each of the player's past 3 years worth of financial documents. Whilst this idea has merit in trying to establish the actual amounts recieved, it also opens the players up to scrutiny and investigation from other external departments unnessecarily. If the NRL/ Deloittes could guarantee protection of the players information, they would receive even more co-operation from the players.
