Beware of Matt Tripp, he is not a politician, why would he want to be one, when he has more power than many?
PT's story is relevant and a huge argument for the lack of justice in a legal system that has "stunk" for ever. Unfortunately it hold's no weight in this discussion which also involves justice, but of a different style! The incumbents are both "heavyweights".
Back to the relevant point the situation has two bearings, the court approving Parra's right's to me are "bombproof".i.e a legally binding contract, signed by the defendant and lodged with the authority under legal guidance. The Plaintiffs (us) are acting in good faith.
The second aspect is if Lomax did offer to come back to play for Parra (as suggested in some statements) and we said no (which again is being stated), then are we restraining his trade in the NRL by admitting we don't want him anyway?
We are actually taking action against him for damage that does not exist by our admission.
Preventing his release on such terms some could be argued as unreasonable and not disadvantaging us?
Summating that differently Parra has a player on 700k and we have cancelled his contract, by admitting we don't want him we are already have benefited by that factor.
In the eyes of an objective judgement that ruling is therefore on a contract that could be unreasonable.
I think that this is Tripp's real course of action, he has just stuffed it up with the "dates" and all the other bullshit with Pezet and Ryles.
Summarise Parra loses a player costing them 700k, then show/say they don't want him.....where are you disadvantaged Parra?
Finally in making this a blog a strong argument is why not put it with the myriad of other posts on this subject?
My rationale is twofold and bears a different view, i.e is that last point of us not having an argument on the basis of no damage done, salient and finally is why did we refuse Zac Lomax the opportunity of returning......I always felt there was a reason unstated of why he wanted to leave and without insulting his character completely which will be most arguments to come forward.....
MY Question still stands WHY????
PS I see the NRL involvement ancillory at this stage and a lot more interesting after the court rules.

He has also said in the past that he wanted to play Five-Eighth.
Zac isnt a bad human, he seems impulsive but he puts his body on the line when he suits up, very unique situation indeed.
I really hope he plays in the NRL again as I hold no anomosity to anyone, let alone a misguided young man.
Hopefully Storm get a breach from the NRL for their misdealings. A struggling club like the GC Titans enquire and we get a deal done quick.
I think we ask for Cooper Bai, which hurts the Strom as they want him, and he is clearly a future superstar. They'd agree to that in a heartbeat.
I hope he plays again myself, but i also hope we get a like for like player in the process.
if we could afford stefano on 800k we could afford lomax
Yeah it seems team Lomax and storm have balls'd this up. If it is true that they have been in negotiations before he was even released then everything else is null and void. That is the exact definition of tampering and if Storm are caught in this public manner sorry they need to be punished severely. Seems to me for once Parra have done everything correctly and the other parties involved are getting their pants pulled down, won't just be in a court of law but already in the court of public opinion. 95% of people are saying parra hold all the cards because they have gone about it the correct way. Courts would be silly to agree on the side of Lomax.
