Jennings and Parramatta’s Salary Cap

Posted by Scott Gregs on November 13, 2020 at 4:35pm

Does anyone know the Salary Cap rules regarding Michael Jennings being stood down?

If he is suspended for the entirety of next season, does his salary eat away at our cap?

I wonder if the club would be paying him a salary or a percentage of a salary while he has been stood down?

If Parramatta aren’t paying his salary, is he entitled to a back payment if his name is cleared?

Interesting stuff.

  Sensitive subject isn’t it Coryn, it can be looked at a number of different ways.
  
  I don’t think the club would have the legal rights to sack him until the B Sample results came back?

Until he is officially suspended he still counts against our cap

  Big stain against the Cap if true Brett.

    Not really, if his B sample comes back positive his cap hold will be credited back to us. The NRL & the clubs would no doubt have a process to follow in this sort of scenario.

Can't do anything until the second sample comes back.

  I think you might be right Brad.
  
  How does it affect the Cap though ?

      How about you use a bit of common sense and spell properly.
      
      What are we “hopping” about brain?
      
      Or what is an “ioui”?

"The only issue I have is the head knocks because he puts himself in the strangest positions for a big man sometimes. But majority of his long term injuries were inflicted by other players in tackles for the past two seasons."

"Great news on all 3. I'm suprised many don't think Moretti is a good keep. He is just coming to age for Prop forwards (Mid 20's) and runs some great lines. I think he needs to have Williams show him the ropes and Luca, Teacum and Tuivaiti need to…"
