A boycott of the NRL season-opening All Stars weekend is still on the cards despite the ARL Commission meeting with a high-powered players delegation in Sydney on Friday.

A who's who of NRL's players sat down to address their concerns with rugby league's hierarchy after it emerged the ARL Commission would not budge on their $5 million salary cap for 2013 - $1.5 million less than the figure the Rugby League Players Association had been demanding.
Wests Tigers captain Robbie Farah did not rule out players walking away from the traditional season-opening All Stars clash.
"That hasn't been spoken about but in saying that we need to look at all our options if something is not agreed upon," he said.
"Ideally this would be sorted out a while ago but that is not the case. All we can do is try and reach an agreement."
Farah joined Kangaroos skipper Cameron Smith, Parramatta stars Jarryd Hayne and Tim Mannah, Souths' Mick Crocker and Penrith's Clint Newton in addressing the RLPA regarding a potential cap rise after the $1 billion five-year TV deal was struck by the ARLC in August.
RLPA boss David Garnsey hoped common sense would prevail.
"There has been a comprehensive number of proposals put on the table today - we have had a close look at that but it is going to take some more work on our part," he said.
"We are trying to come up with the best deal possible for the players."
Interim NRL boss Shane Mattiske remained positive despite the talks becoming stalled after a four-hour meeting.
"We are listening. Now we are working to address their issues," he said.
"We have made some progress today and we have agreed to meet early next week to continue those discussions."
