[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 1069450, member: 74121"] Dragons chairman proposing a salary cap. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.planetrugby.com/dragons-boss-calls-for-urc-salary-cap-united-rugby-championship[/URL] Setting aside that his point is made in the most Welsh rugby way possible (inferiority complex combined with English praising tourettes) I think the idea has some merit. I have grown weary of Benneton dominating their URC rivals and hogging the silverware. I would exclude salaries of players developed by the club / union and have it only extend to players raised by other clubs / unions up to the age of 16 or 18. It would assist teams and unions with lesser budgets, soften the impact of currency fluctuations and further encourage player development over player purchasing. It'd be particularly beneficial if it could perhaps be aligned with French and English salary caps to bring more parity to European competitions. Am I missing an obvious downside? [/QUOTE]
