As an aside, at the end of the article, Ernie is complaining about only being allowed 23 players compared to 26 for other A-League teams. Really? That doesn't sound right I thought all teams were only allowed 23. If this is this correct as that sounds very unfair.
Its 23 man roster in the First team salary cap but you can have 3 NYL players contracted outside that. We don't have a NYL team, so don't get them.


So basically they get 3 extra youth players which are outside the salary cap? Can see why Merrick isn't happy.
