I really really feel for the players..
A lot of people have come out and said that they are complicit in this but i think they may not have been aware of it, certainly not all of them..
the club has all sorts of other expenses so they could've been paying their players a certain amount on standard salaries and then throwing money at all the other things they needed to get done, advertising, 3rd party incentives, cars, accommodation etc..
If i were a player and i was told that i had to play a whole season for nothing more than my wages, i would certainly be looking at why i should be putting in 100% every week. If i was off contract i would be running for the hills (or Sydney or Union )
If i was thinking about moving to the Storm i certainly wouldn't be now.
Another thing i was thinking about was if Melbourne are doing it then SURELY other teams are too.
