The Eels claim they never ticked-off on Foran having a get-out clause inserted in the contract which allows the Kiwi five-eighth to walk away at any stage.
Incredibly, part of the clause includes detail stating the Eels must pay Foran a massive payout in damages.
The Daily Telegraph has been told this was one of the fundamental reasons why the Parramatta board refused to rubberstamp a contract extension for CEO Seward, which led to the Eels official walking away from the club.
Seward was the Parramatta powerbroker who handled the majority of negotiations in relation to the Foran contract.

If this happens than I hope the NRL take total control of this club immediately...
It's been told to me by several people involved at other clubs that we are the joke of the league, this would only prove it to be true
I noticed they put this bit way down the bottom
It actually appears that they are attempting to correct and ridiculous one-sided contract.
Damages to Foran :crazy: - was Seward on crack ?
then why is it in there? doesn't sound like they ticked off on any of it, gee I wonder how they ended up over the salary cap?
