The National Rugby League has today outlined Salary Cap breaches against the Wests Tigers, the Gold Coast Titans, the St George Illawarra Dragons, the Parramatta Eels and the Canberra Raiders following the completion of all audits into the 2010 season.
The
largest breach notice is in relation to the Wests Tigers, who claimed a
‘long serving player allowance’ contrary to advice from the Salary Cap
audit team.
The remaining breaches across four
clubs concern the use of second tier players and the categorisation of
education grants, accommodation and termination payments.
“The
compliance across the vast majority of clubs has been encouraging but
the penalties are a reminder that the Salary Cap will be enforced,” NRL
Chief Executive, Mr David Gallop, said today.
“Six
clubs were breached last year, most notably the Storm. It is pleasing
to see the number down this year but the warning bells for anyone
looking to break the rules could not be any louder.
