"V’landys’ lack of support for the Eels, coupled with multiple backflips on his tough-talking rhetoric on contract sanctity, anit-tampering, player loyalty over R360 money grabs met with ten year bans, is disappointing.
This is exactly right it's why…"

" Thanks Bluey,
Could be, dunno. But I wonder whether Walters would change his tune if his players do a Lomax on him, signing multiple contracts and chats with others while still under contract with him.
 Or maybe tell him they did the right thing…"

"Cobbo was a chance, Staggs, Farnworth, Best ( Best maybe given rhetoric) but none of them Cobbo (not likely) would have come to Parra. Losing Lomax was a killer but to coin one of my favourite sayings, you cannot control the uncontrollable!
We need…"

"Thanks Mutts. I’ve enjoyed your commentary on this as well.
Like you, I feel, after looking at timelines despite initial concerns, Lomax made some form of provisional agreement with Melbourne first. Reading between the lines of what Tripp said (Feb…"

"EAM / Randy, gents,
One wonders. If Lomax is treated differently because he’s a “marquee player” and “human”, what rules apply to all the other humans in the game?

Like you, I'm proud of our club, regardless of the outcome. We stood up for ourselves and the ship is heading in the right direction.
The club has done everything right and in good faith, by the book, and discovery points to some…"

"Re outside backs: are we not now in love with Joash Papalii, Russell, Simonsson, Samrani, Penisini 1 and Penisini 2, Kelly,  That's 7 for 3 spots available. Dosnt  ignite fear in opposition but that's whom the club have chosen.
To think of the…"

"You could also argue that Melbourne are restaining trade by refusing to offer a resonable trade. There's a lot for the judges to unpick here."
