The article can be found on Fox Sports.

For the more savvy legal eagles on the site, what does this mean and does it implicate the Storm as it proves they engaged in illegal dealings with a player under contract?

Not only is this looking real bad for them, it looks increasingle poor optics for Lomax who showed little regard for the contract's worth and value not only with Parra, but also the NRL.

It would be nice to see a little backbone here by the NRL and not screw over Parra for doing the right thing by the player, even though Storm and Lomax look Guilty AF.

Bring in the Integrity Unit for this one and buckle up, I think we're going to see even more shady shenannigans.

        • Mate the NRL can't take over once the Court hands down its ruling. If the Courts decide the release is valid, that's the end of it. Vlandys, Melbourne and anyone else has to abide by the terms of the release. Because once a Judge rules it becomes the law, its no longer just a difference of opinion over a contract. We all have legal rights that no one is allowed to override. For instance Vlandys can't go into the Broncos tomorrow and say 'I'm moving Haas to the Gold Coast for the good of the game'. The Broncos have a legal contract. This is the same thing. 

  • Something else, that literally changes the whole thing. 

    With Documents that now prove Lomax had signed with R360 before getting a release from the Eels  and 

    V'Landys NRL introduced a new rule that states 10 year ban for Player and for Player Agents signing with R360.

    Thats game over. The NRL must now sanction Lomax with the 10 year Ban as well as Schifcofski and his Partner Gillis.

    Lomax plays for no one till 2036. Isn't that what's supposed to happen now. The NrL should have already come out and stated they have opened an investigation into Lomax, shouldn't they.

    • They wont, we all know they wont as R360 are no threat. Issue will come if R360 does get going in 2028 after the RWC and is serious. V'Landys probably thinks since it died down that is it, there for since they are not a threat on NRL players fair game.

      If he played for Storm and we wanted him though.....

    • But Lomax is now the prodigal son of the NRL.

      He signed the contract which means a 10 year ban from the NRL. 

  • Is anyone else noticing the media slowly shifting to help the NRL and storm strong-arm us. Many of them are starting to say how going through the courts is going to hurt us and isn't a good look because we are depriving the game of Lomax?

    I hope we fuck over Lomax and the Storm to be honest but do have a feeling the NRL will try to get us back by having refs rule 50/50 calls against us amongst other things

    • Yep, i have seen the sudden shift of "Good on Parra, they should fight this" to "It sucks but move on". 

      That is why i recently love listening to the likes of Willie Mason and Dan Ginnane who tell it like it is.

      • This sudden shift sponsored by NRL and Storm.

        It will get worse, we just need to keep at it.and keep leaking No one will be feeling sorry for lomax any time soon if we keep our end up

         

        • Thankfully we have not flinched an inch. Well as far as we have seen.

          • LB, have you seen Big Willie in "Sunny Nights". He plays an ex-nrl star with CTE. He does well the big fella

    • Some people in the media need to be checked for HIAs and/or drugs.

      I just saw a clip of Caine and Fletch, with Caine suggesting Storm should give us an up and coming young gun a part of the deal then mentions Storm giving us 31yo Tui. I had to watch it again to make sure I heard his stupidity correctly.

      You cannot be taken seriously when Fletch is making the reasonable comments.
