What happens now? Players want their new pay deal ratified or will not turn up to training on Monday which will hold up the competition return. The tail is wagging the dog.

"Nice and fair blog Chief.
Either way i feel there will be signings, more so due to who is off-contract. We only have 22 signed up for 2027, at least 6 spots need to be filled by Round 1 next year. Russell, Matto and Pezet we know are definately…"

"110% confident is the minimum"
"Can't get him til 28' unless Dolphins release him. Not sure why on earth they would do so early."
"In Hindsight you are right poppa, He showed last nite, what he can produce. Never listen to me."
"Of course Talataina won't be our starting five-eighth next year. He's not in the top 30 until 2028."
"Foran's body was fine. He played more NRL games after leaving Parra than he did before he got here.
As for getting caught, that's the risk every club takes when they fuck around with 'arms length' TPAs. The alternative is mediocrity."

"but you're not 101% confident?"
"No I have watched him. He is better than what we currently have. Did I say he is worth a mil? No but to say you wouldn't even sign him for 1 year? If you have the chance to sign a player better than what you have you sign them, within price of…"
"Hope we can pull the Burton signing. The drums are beating louder by the day, hope MON and co can pull it off. If we don't I could possibly see Moses walk, his time is running out and doesn't want to waste it with rookies and Reggie players. I…"
"MATT BURTON. 100% confident on this one, I reckon most of our signings will for 28 due to so many players coming off in 27."
"This is my hope too! "
"I take it you haven't watched him play this year LB. Everyone thought he was a lock in for NSW, couldn't even make it. He is not worth anywhere near a million, you pay that for Haas, AFB or even JFH mainly for his leadership, not Koloamatagi."
"Well, according to our resident expert, no one."
Remember Rodney Hogg
Rodney was a late arrival to Test cricket at age 27. Born in Victoria he was overlooked by state selectors and moved to Adelaide to find an earlier path to Shield.He was selected and within a year he was noticed by Alan Davidson who mentioned his…

I'm in the players corner here. They agreed to a 75% pay cut until the game could restart, and I agree it was necessary, but if they are going to start playing again, and presumably getting broadcast income flowing again, then the players want to know what their pay arrangements are going to be, and fair enough.
The 75% cut was for the duration of when the game wasn't operating, once it starts operating and the game gets some cash flow the players deserve to be paid accordingly. The NRL has thus far not addressed this concern, however I'm sure they will. The players desperatley want to start playing again, but they don't want to be taken for granted, and fair enough.
The other issue is around the Warriors. They have to be in quarantine for 14 days after they arrive before they can start training. The Warriors players are understandably concerned that this hasn't been nailed down yet, and they aren't prepared to commit to traveling across the ditch and then being in quarantine without a deal in place. Again, fair enough I say.
There is an agreement already in place if the competion resumes,the players get 29.5 pc of any revenue from then on, it is not yet known how much that will be. The players and that wanna be Newton continue to throw up road blocks , cance the comp for gods sake and let these self entilted shits cry about that, I had hopes the comp wopuld resume on rhe 28th, not any more.
Thats fine if they dont - no-one wins. Seriously both fox and ch 9 could be stubborn too in light of the players behaviours this week. No-one wins. AFL will be back soon as will some o/seas soccer....there will be sport to watch somewhere. The marbles has even taken off.....
Well the Belorussian Premier League has been playing this whole time. It's the only professional sport that has continued operating uninterrupted.
Yes Brett and its good stuff. I congratule those Belorussians, a tough race.
i agee with the playes but the reality is that they will play. They are fully paid up untilk the end of May whic means they are obligated to turn up and train, after that they wont get paid a cent. All of the players i have spoken to are so worried abou their next paycheck, despite some of these players being marquee players that they would do anything to get back and play.
All of the club officials i have spoken to are also confident of the game restarting. Storm in a teacup
As long as our guys want to turn up and train i dont give a crap what the others do
