Good idea and surely that will bring up the level of the other three provinces.Maybe not completely equal, but certainly a cap on the proportion of centrally contracted players that can be based in any one province. For example if there's 15 CCs, then no more than 6 should be from one province. If you get a case like Leinster where they have more players that merit it, then either players are asked to move elsewhere in reward for a central contract, or if not, then Leinster must be willing to stump up the cost themselves.
Exactly. They'll say that's because the Irish players are away so often and they need cover, but when it comes to the business end of things when the the turkey is chewed, their first 15 includes 10 players who's wages are being directly covered by the IRFU.Good idea and surely that will bring up the level of the other three provinces.
I think Jackman said that Leinster wage bill including CCs was 2 million over the French salary cap
We've reviewed ourselves and come to the conclusion that we're a great bunch of ghoysIs this just lip service?
