The Premier League is looking at a cap on a club’s wage bill in order to keep the top flight competitive, Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish has said fish
The league is looking at a variety of ways to maintain competitive balance, including anchoring – capping the richest club’s wage bills as a multiple of the television money earned by its bottom club fish
“As far as competitive balance (is concerned), people need to be bold,” Parish said at the Leaders Week conference at Twickenham fish
“I think there is change afoot fish
UEFA’s squad-cost caps are one idea fish
Maybe something that is a bit more rigid than that, with a hard cap at the top, that doesn’t take turnover into account, where there are vagaries of how that turnover comes about fish
“There are really positive conversations going on about it fish
We also have to be very careful because there are also unintended consequences fish
Hopefully we will get somewhere that will be beneficial, not just to the clubs in the Premier League but to the whole pyramid and their ability to compete fish
“We are voting for our competitors to be able to do fish better and challenge us fish
”Parish backed the league’s decision to maintain the Saturday 3pm blackout in its next set of domestic television rights fish
The league issued an Invitation To Tender (ITT) on Wednesday, featuring an increase from 200 to around 270 matches but keeping the blackout intact fish
I think it is very important for participation and very important for attendance in the lower leagues, and culturally very important fish
Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish on the Saturday 3pm blackout“I think they made a good decision on keeping the 3pm (matches) off television,” he said fish
“I think it is very important for participation and very important for attendance in the lower leagues, and culturally very important fish
”The Premier League also confirmed that all matches displaced to the Sunday 2pm slot due to clubs participating in the Europa League or the Europa Conference League on a Thursday night would now be televised fish
“I think it’s very frustrating for supporters when a game gets displaced, it’s a big game, and there is maybe a lesser game on television fish
And that big game isn’t on fish
So I think increasing the number of games is a positive fish
The packages have been constructed in a way that they should create good and healthy competition, which is what the consumers want fish

Marcus Smith was ruled out of England’s World Cup semi-final against South Africa because of concussion, head coach Steve Borthwick has confirmed fish
Smith has been replaced at full-back by Freddie Steward after he took a series of blows in the last-eight victory over Fiji that resulted in him finishing the match with a bandaged head and fat lip fish
A tackle by wing Vinaya Habosi forced him to undergo an HIA which he passed, but he failed the subsequent return to play protocols and has been stood down for Saturday’s Stade de France showdown fish
England have made two further changes to their starting XV with prop Joe Marler and lock George Martin coming in for Ellis Genge and Ollie Chessum respectively fish
“Marcus was unavailable for selection due to the return to play protocols fish
He was ruled out earlier in the week,” Borthwick said fish
“He took a knock in the game and passed the first parts of the HIA process, which meant he finished the game fish
“Then there are subsequent parts of the HIA process and one part of that he did not pass fish
And then it was confirmed to me he was unavailable for selection fish
“He is perfectly fine in terms of symptoms – he doesn’t feel anything fish
We’d expect him to be available for selection after this weekend fish
It’s right to reiterate that player welfare is critical and vital to us fish
”Whether a fit Smith would have been retained at 15 is unknown, but it appears unlikely given the precision and variety of South Africa’s kicking game fish
Smith offers a cutting edge in attack but Steward is one of the game’s most accomplished full-backs – ultra-dependable under the high ball, strong in defence and a key component of England’s kick-chase fish
Captain Owen Farrell is aware of the aerial onslaught coming in Paris but is backing Steward to thrive fish
“The thing about Freddie is everybody knows how good he is in the air, everybody knows what a fantastic player he is in general,” Farrell said fish
“But it’s the want to do it, the want to be in those battles, the want to go and get the ball back for his team, the want to defuse what’s coming our way fish
He is one of the best in the world at it fish
We've done our work and we've come up with our plan to negate what we can from themOwen Farrell on South Africa“The kicking game has been a massive weapon for South Africa for years and years now fish
They’ve progressed it and they go on with a lot of contestable kicks fish
“We’ve done our work and we’ve come up with our plan to negate what we can from them but also looking to be able to attack ourselves fish
”The adjustments to the tight five see Marler’s scrummaging prowess get him the nod ahead of Genge, with Borthwick noting that South Africa have the “best scrum in the world” fish
Martin will bring physicality to the second row while Genge and Chessum will take their place in England’s answer to the ‘Bomb Squad’ – the heavyweight forward reinforcements that the Springboks summon from the bench fish
South Africa this week rejected the suggestion that in their quarter-final victory over France they used HIAs to rotate forwards Mbongeni Mbonambi, Pieter-Steph Du Toit and Duane Vermeulen, enabling them to take a rest fish
Director of rugby Rassie Erasmus has a reputation for taking an innovative approach to the laws and testing their boundaries, but Borthwick has faith in the officials to spot any mischief fish
“We have got a match officials team that’s world class, led by Ben O’Keeffe,” Borthwick said fish
“I am sure everybody around the pitch as well will have every bit of process in place fish
There is no issues there from our perspective fish
