(Mick Tsikas/AAP PHOTOS)A Leagues players will be invited to have a say in the direction of the game in the new CBA. The APL said prior to Wednesday that it had previously agreed to 52 of 53 items with the PFA, but the ALW salary cap was the sole sticking point. The fresh attempt to strike a deal contained no suggestion of alterations to the ALM salary cap or the number of allocations for marquee player contracts. Marquee deals sit outside the salary cap of $2.6m.
