I call BS on that. The war chest conversation has been raised before and all the other CEOs said that they would want a similar financial hand out.

A war chest would work under the RU or cricket models as their elite players are contracted to their governing body. Won't work in NRL as every club wants an even slice of the pie.

Agreed, none of our CEOs would ever do anything for the good of the game imo.

Every club is not interested in the good of the game they are only interested in the good of their club, Bennett is a fine example. In says this and that about our game and things should be this way but if you look into what he is actually saying it would mainly benefit the club he is at at the time.
Every club is looking after themselves first and the game 2nd and that will never change.

If they were going to supplement a single club's cap with the 'war chest' the most equitable way would be by doing it for the club that is spending the least on players via TPAs.

Well we haven't got a cent on TPA's, because they're all part of our salary cap now...

and the worst management in the history of the game.

Newtown Jets, North Sydney Bears, Gold Coast Chargers all went belly up.

Sharkies have been about since 1967 and are yet to get the chocolates.

Since the ousting of Fitzy, we certainly have been the most f**ked about by megalomaniac merkins in the history of the game.

Recent salary cap (still alleged) shenanigans suggest that we may well get the gong of the dumbest management of the game. So we're up there for sure.

Well, in all fairness, that's kind of their job..

It's up to the NRL to look after the game as a whole.

For example, if a big name player goes on the market, big clubs don't pass on them to let the smaller clubs have a crack at them, they'd be fired if they did stuff like that, even though that would probably be best for the game.

:lol: And all that was down to management???

Fair f**king dinkum, anything to support the clowns who have helped run our club into the ground.

And that goes for the idiots who were in charge before them, absolutely clueless selfish amateurs.
