It's not a rort if it's in the rules.
Paying someone out eats into the cap and limits the ability of the club to invest in the team.

If you pay him out say 55k and replace him the new player essentially costs you their wage plus the bloke you sacked. So a 75k new player costs you 130k of cap space.

You'd be better off moving Brennan out from under the cap and using that 130k to get a 130k player.


The "rort" isn't being used to ignore the local NPL, it's being used to spend money more wisely in the squad.

Brennan if not gone sooner will not be here next year and the club can go back to ignoring the local NPL without any fuss.
