That's the point. The english salary cap is good por the Premiership, but bad for the Heineken Cup.

The balance is difficult. But the advantage for french teams is too big. The fact is that the advantage grows year after year, because de french salary cap grows almost every year.

If the balance is in risk right now, i can imagine what will happen next year with all blacks, springboks and wallabies flying towards the richest french clubs (not to mention the welsh stars). France will pay the price: the national team will suffer the consequences, and also the Top 14; the gap between top clubs and the rest is getting bigger.

I think this is a mess; nobody wins, everybody lose
