“With all associations … you just want clarity and openness,” he said.
“If you ask to see the books, you just want them to be open and honest, and just show you that books to know what’s going on so you can actually be make a fair assessment.
“Sometimes that gets lost. With cricket it has in the past. I know for a fact just talking to a few of the players in the NRL, sometimes that sort of clarity gets lost. You don’t get to see everything that’s going on.
“Once you can get that and everyone can come to a reasonable decision … that’s a big part of it.
“I’m sure this will work out, it has to, The footy season’s coming in March and if it doesn’t (work out), then we don’t have footy.”
Khawaja’s Brisbane Heat side is aiming for a third successive BBL win on Friday night at the Gabba against the Hobart Hurricanes.
“We’ve won two games in a row, if we went three, four, I think we give ourselves a pretty good chance of making the (finals). If we can get five (on the trot), I think we’ve definitely made it,” he said.
