Is current Aus salary cap a reason for more English players not being signed to the NRL?
Nothing is guaranteed in rugby league. But, with more money swilling about they could look to recruit more players from SL which will further weaken the competition.
They are more likely to take a chance on a younger player eg Rushton. Not the end of the world for the NRL club if it doesn't work out and, as a young player, you get to live in Australia on probably as much as you'd get over here with an almost cast iron guarantee you'll get a club over here if/when you return.
I hope more do go to Aus. It will only improve them as players and give us a better chance on the international stage.
Look at Brazil and France at international football level. 95% of both squads play football in a league that is so much better than their own and this is why they excel
