2016 squad salary (cap) numbers from neverland

Inspired by the Merrin talk, the 2016 Salary cap is



6800K (6.8m)



According to wiki which I believe includes MPAs (can anyone confirm?).



The long Service player allowance is



300k



Making for a total of



7100k (7.1m)



total to play with when considering the "deals worth" numbers that flash in the media.



25 players are required under the cap. 80k is the minimum wage of those 25 contracts. The following players are contracted for 2016, the numbers are from the media or my ass.



1. Merrin
