Looks like we will get shafted once again, I wonder if the NRL would step in if it was the Tigers pushing to get Lomax

"We just offered keon 1mill how the fuck do we not have cap space, what are you smoking? Lomax was on 650k, we never replaced dbrown, and braith said we signed pezet for unders this year. We have a war chest."
"Kelly would have taken some, then we re-signed a host of players who get upgrades for this year, include Pezet in that too.
We have cap space but not enough to accommodate Lomax for full price and fill the final spot in our top 30. We might have…"

"How do we not have any cap space? Makes no sense that we have so many players leave and we replace a fraction of the numbers and we have no cap space?? mind boggling

"Well in fairness, we thought too that the contract he signed, with his own free will, would be enough, as it should be.
Plus we probably felt we wanted him gone."

How is it that we are not being reasonable? 200k for a NSW & Australin winger that we cannot even put to our salary cap. How in the fuck is that a reasnable offer for eels. We have the upper hand legally, yet we are the ones who need to be bend the knee?
The most reasonable fucking trade would be Coates you wanking corrupt NRL. Yet we would take Howarth or Utoikamanu instead which would stilll mean eels would be the loser in the trade.
Agree Howarth isn't fair value but it's better then nothing. And then we can beat Zach while he's on the storm and he can quit that contract 6 months in to 🤣
Exactly. Howarth has potential to be fair but is not on paper right now. But it is better as we got something we didn't think we would out of it.
Thing I will say to this is why should the NRL get involved? Should just let the teams solve it. Now of course if RLPA ask them too then fine but yeah we all know they are doing the whole "just give him to them" approach.
V'Landys played silly buggers with clubs over the kick off rule where he asked them their thoughts, they said it was bad and he said well bad luck. Now the clubs are saying back Parra and he could be like stuff you why listen to you guys.
We also have soft cocks who will just bow down and say "ok, we tried".
NRL fans are not happy, it is not passing the pub test. I wonder how this wil go down, will the fans finally have more of a voice. As lately V'Landys has been speaking for us as opposed to what we want. He thinks we know what we want.
Rather than go of half cocked or soft cocked..... ,maybe we should get an erection first......
So melb made an offer, NRL have said nothing to my understanding, but we have a whole lot of bush lawyers going hammer and tongs! LOL
PS Nobody can make contracted players to come to Parramatta.
At the same time if a player agreed to a deal where he is not allowed to play for another NRL team nobody should force us to renig on that deal. It works both ways.
I really want a voice in this, why do us as a club need to bow down to a club thats been a utter shit for the game. They've been cheating the cap and winning GFs while doing so. While we kept loyal even during the SL war yeah we get nothing but a fuck yyou by the NRL. Not really intrestead in the NRL knowing we'll get done by. Lets be honest they want Lomaxx for RD 1 so it can beat AFL records in Melbourne. These fuckers are so easy to read man they are like the deep state the NRL is.
Well put it this way, when you had channel 9 show Billy Slater and have "4x premiership winner" that's says all that needs to be said about their reputation. They cheated 2 titles and channel 9 of all corporations still acknowledge it.
David Gallop was treated so poorly but a lot of fans for trying to kill the game in Victoria when he was doing the right thing. Melbourne fans still believe it was a hit job.
Like seriously too much protection. The Eels fans are the most loyal, NRL know that. It's like being a subscriber to something, they look after the new or not yet subscribers first and give them great deals. The loyal ones get no time of day as they will always be there.
Step in by:
1. Packing the bags and arranging transport for our nominated Storm player to be sent to Eels HQ
STEP IN NRL
The NRL by rights should tell Lomax to head back to Sydney and commence training with Parra if not sit out for the next few years. Seems like Melbourne have gone running and sooking to the NRL to get what they want
