Rumours and Stuff

well there is this on their site

https://www.nrl.com/news/2017/12/20/nrl-unlikely-to-ban-jarryd-hayne-over-sexual-assault-claim/





yet today they say they don't involve themselves in civil cases so why monitor Hayne's?

Just a spokesperson saying they will monitor the case. Nothing about Todd saying jarryd will be suspended if he has to pay damages.

Now hang on a second, are you suggesting this administration just makes shit up as they go along?

so why are they monitoring his case and waiting for the outcome?

We are also making a play for Tyrone Peachey. Swap deal on the cards. My tip is Mau.

Interesting deal if true. Not sure we gain that much besides more money towards our cap.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Where is he going to play?

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

And hasn't he just signed with the Titans for 2019? So we get him for a year?

 

[El Diablo]

Where is he going to play?

in the percussion section

in the percussion section

Fair enough. He might be able to give others tips on how to pass a percussion test.

They won't suspend JH if and because 'he has to pay damages'. Any potential damages and any potential suspension would arise from a common source.....a finding against JH in a US civil case. It wouldn't be the 'damages' that would cause any potential suspension, it would be the evidence presented and tested in court and the findings of that court that may trigger a suspension. .

Lodge was effectively suspended (i.e. registration refused) at least partly on the basis of the evidence/allegations presented in US.

Didn’t he sign with the titans for 2019? Are we looking at a swap so we only get him for this year???

Strange call if true. Good player but doesn't really seem to be the type we are short on.

Peachey's current perspective on his future:

Tyrone Peachey insists he will be at the Panthers for the remainder of this year and has refused to put a timeframe on when he will make a decision about whether to accept a lucrative deal from the Gold Coast.

Having spoken about his desire to win a starting spot for the round one derby against the Eels and launch a premiership assault with the Panthers, a reserved Peachey conceded he had spoken to Titans coach Garth Brennan over summer.
But any move won't be as early as this year, with Peachey declaring his only ambition is to win a title with the Panthers this year.

I’d rather Mau as an edge forward. Bad trade if true IMO

 

[Happy MEel]

Perhaps it’s a swap for Kenny. Weren’t there rumours over the offseason that he could be leaving?

Lodge was suspended because he was charged and convicted

Where in that article does it mention NRL suspension or de-registration?

 

[El Diablo]

if it doesn't mean suspension then why are they monitoring it?

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

the NRL said they don't get involved in civil cases

Here is the relevant quote:

"We only make decisions based on football and behavioural matters," a spokesman said.

"We don't get involved in any civil matters. There is no requirement in there related to payment."

http://www.smh.com.au/rugby-league/...ay-damages-to-us-victims-20180216-h0w7xr.html

Yes, they don't get 'involved' in the sense that they are not responsible for enforcement of civil claims. The very sentence above say that they make decisions on 'behavioural matters'. Nothing in what they said precludes them from observing evidence of behaviour via court findings, whether the be criminal or civil. That is not the same as 'getting involved' in the case.
