SGI NSW Cup
The NRL pay dispute has escalated, with players now threatening a competition-wide strike, if the new collective bargaining agreement isn't finalised soon. With the opening round just weeks away, the new season could now be delayed or even cancelled.
Is this a case of pure greed or are those threatening to strike the ones on lower tier wages as surely with the salary cap increase everyone is now getting a healthy piece of the pie. 100 years or is as recently as 50 years ago the workers called people prepared to replace a striking worker , 'scabs'. Are the 200 overseas players ready to be put on a plane by the NRL should the strike eventuate, be also called 'scabs'. I think not as they may just save the season from complete disaster.
