Post subject: Men to subsidise women; combined soft cap. Resistance. | |

"AFLPA chief Paul Marsh said he feared the joint CBA and combined salary cap could create divisions between the men and women players."
I don't know how this would work. Would the AFL force all 18 clubs to have a women's side?? (Or is that already something that's going to happen for sure?)
If there were a combined soft cap with no separate caps, I know how supporters would want that cap to be spent at the Pies: 99.9% on the men's footy department. |

So under this proposal, our men's side will be weakened for the sake of the women's team? I would rather we spend our salary cap towards keeping our star male players, thanks. _________________ How would Siri know when to answer "Hey Siri" unless it is listening in to everything you say? |

^ Well, just the football department, I think.
The male players would be subsidising the women, but there would still be a separate male players' hard salary cap (which would just be lower). |
