Salary Cap - Is it keeping the League competitive?
The Aviva Premiership Salary cap was introduced in the late 1990's to keep the league competitive and ensure all clubs had a fair chance at winning rugby’s biggest prize inside of England. I would argue all its done is hamstrung the leagues big boys in European competition. Since the game went pro only 5 clubs have won the league with Wasps and Leicester being the only multiple winners. This suggests to me the big clubs will always rise to the top domestically; the best players always want to play for the clubs with the most revered histories.
