I believe the System is BROKEN at present .
I'd hate to loose a contracted player on contract mid season.
I wouldn't mind transfer fees myself , but I'm sure there are cons too .
Gould's 2 Cents below .
The system Gus wants is like a bidding war for players, but would be very open. It removes the powers from player managers to say "hey everyone, i have one used mitchel moses here who is recieving offers of $900,000 per season. You better stump up that cash if you want a player of this calibre".
Whichever club bids the most, gets the player. So this is an internal draft as well, which is good because the NRL has proven it can't run junior systems, so clubs can still develop and promote local and aspiring talent into their squads.
The pros are basically that players will get what they are worth, or a little bit more depending on how desperate a club is. It allows fans to truly know how much their star players are worth, and essentially if other clubs are cheating.
It also would prove what players actually earn, (under the salary cap) and what they are actually worth.
The only con i can think of is that some players might have to relocate. Honestly though, with 8 clubs in sydney i don't see it as a problem at all.
This is only if the player wants to leave. They can continue a contract with their current club. Its literally only if they want to test themselves on the open market.
