I understand that, and in the end, I'm willing to cop the punishment, we cheated. But we have also lost lots of players, every year we have shed players, it's just that most don't want to play in the NRL after playing with us, so they have gone overseas, guys like Matty king, Dallas Johnston, Scotty Hill and even Mick Crocker though it fell through. And plenty of our star players went to others, Noddy, Chambers, Turner, Kafusi, Friend, Falou etc.
Most of not all our overspend has been on paying our home grown stars like Slater, Inglis, Smith, Cronk to name a few, we developed them and they want to play for us, and the system need to be looked at allow for that sort of thing, we have never bought a premiership by stealing other players and that makes a difference in my view. We did cheat the cap, we have paid the price, but the NRL now needs to look at this through something other than a crime and punishment lens.
