"That's always a concern and that's one of the things that needs to be addressed in the new collective bargaining agreement," Jones said. "Those are called unintended consequences there. What turns into trying to be competitive among clubs and what turns into trying to be fair for a player turns into being a disadvantage for the clubs."
