Is there a limit to TPAs per player?

Now correct me if I'm wrong, I thought one reason Izzy's attempted contract was rejected was because of the % of his salary as a TPA.Now I have found this quote in a news article regarding Carney suing the Sharks:"Carney signed the biggest contract ever tabled to a Sharks player, a $3,098,3333 deal, of which $1.3 million was made up of third-party agreements. "That's almost 40% of his contract as TPA.

  • Pretty sure it can only be a percentage of overall contract . However , don't forget clubs have 600K marquee allowance and can have a certain amount to spend on guaranteed TPAs ( or somtin like that )
  • In short no if it is a third party unrelated to the club (unlimited).  If it is a third party related to the club (ie., Marquee Allowance - 600K) then yes.  

    The NRL use nominal values for players.  If a player signs on for a very low cap salary the NRL will not accept the contract ie., Folau.  Folau was reportedly on 500K with Brisbane when he left and in his last year he was the form centre of the comp and his value (if he stayed) would have gone up.  Parramatta offered Folau (on the cap) 50% or less of his previous salary with Brisbane.  Like Sam Burgess Folau's status (and worth) went up when he left the game even though both failed in another sport.
