Hypothetically speaking...........or wishing

Posted by Yoda on June 28, 2016 at 9:06pm

If by some chance an investigation proves that there are 4 or so Manly players guilty of match fixing....... and if one of them is at the Eels.......and the NRL followed up on its lifeban promise......you couldn't count that singing as part of salary cap could you?........ for this year or following years? Hypothetically the crime (and it is a crime) was committed at a previous NRL club, the NRL authorised the 2016 contract along with the Eels. Both would have been disenfranchised through the signing. There must be some interesting negotiations taking place right now.

No chance mate he pulled on our strip and played after we knowingly cheated the cap just like the watmough situation someone hing that happens now does not Shane the fact we intentionally cheated the cap during the season

  No question on cheating....... but there is always negotiation on what can be considered to be carried over for salary cap.
