Manly Sea Eagles salary cap scandal.Source: FOX SPORTS
AN 81-year-old grandmother has become caught up in the NRL’s investigation into potential Manly salary cap rorting in a bizarre twist to the saga that broke this week.

Channel Seven have reported payments made by Sea Eagles fan Brenda Duchen to players are being investigated, as it’s alleged the club may have helped initiate the deals.

It is forbidden for NRL clubs to help facilitate third-party agreements between a sponsor and player.

Channel Seven says Ms Duchen sponsored Manly players including Kieran Foran up to “hundreds of thousands of dollars”.

There is no suggestion Ms Duchen did anything wrong under NRL protocol.

Foxsports.com.au has approached Ms Duchen for comment

The NRL this week issued a breach notice to Manly for potential salary cap breaches over the past five years.

Two Sea Eagles officials have also been issued show cause notices and could be deregistered by the governing body.

  • That Kiwi cunts name just seems to pop up in every scandal doesn’t it .  Bit like Vince at the local Sizzlers . 

  • Is she getting anything back for her hundreds of thousands?

    How many players are going around to her place and giving the old duck a tickle for extra?

    I imagine Foz has slept outside her place in the car a few nights, or maybe even in it, heck id pop round and give her a tickle where ever she likes for 100k.

  • Interesting to know if she is collecting old age pension.

  • The nrl registered the TPA? Then what’s the issue?

    • They also registered watmough's with us. That doesn't work if it's later found to be not kosher.
