Zac Lomax

[The Predictor]

So we are essentially back where we started ?

No….we haven’t been bent over, and his on the sidelines

 

[Timana]

What about that Tiger's winger?? Surely Tallyn can convince him and Romey has got relations with Lomax. I dont mind him going to the TIges

 

[The Predictor]

Woohoo
They put the right of pressure

That Moses lawyer is a gun , ripped them all to shreds

To be fair I reckon I could have won this case considering there appears to be a shitload of incriminating evidence

 

[Trifili13]

Well done Parra for staying strong and not buckling.

Would have loved the matter to have proceeded to see what the Storm and NRL were doing behind closed doors.

And any elderly Parra fans, don't like your chances of seeing another Parra premiership in whatever time you have left on this earth.

 

[Gary Gutful]

I reckon PVL has been great for the game but on this matter he really needs to STFU!!

The more he opens his mouth the more and stupid he looks. He should be more worried about who fitted that hair piece. As a bald man myself I am utterly embarrassed and appalled.

Agree. He’s absolutely goosed himself on this one.

 

[Twizzle]

Why would Matterson refuse? Weren’t they going to just pay him out and release him? He would never have had to go there.

He said he didn't want to go there. It's in plain English, and it's sourced.

The end.

Wow congrats to Parra for standing their ground. Glad to see that occasionally the morally right outcome wins out.
I'm guessing that court case would have dished out some juicy tidbits neither Zac or the Storm wanted out in public.
See ya Zac, you clown.

This

They were desperate for it not to go to court and that was their peace offering to get that

otherwise the scandal would have been outrageous. $250k is hush money to make it go away

Can someone enlighten me into what the Storm and NRL could possibly be hiding in relation to this matter?

I've seen hundreds of people suggest that Storm folded because they didn't want anything aired out in court, but if that were the case why did we offer to cover Lomax's legal fees in order for it to go before the courts?

What could the NRL and Storm have done that was so controversial with relation to Zac Lomax? Aside from Trips' text to "apply the blowtorch" (which I admit isn't the best look) I've seen nothing to suggest any monumental scandal.

Seems to me like we tried our luck and Parra wouldn't be strongarmed. That's it?

poor storm, always getting the wrong end of the stick. Hopefully bad wig head lets them start the comp on 10 points this year...... its only fair for such a prestigious organisation

Really? You can’t see a possible outcome of the blowtorch comment that would’ve been monumentally scandalous? Typical Melbourne

It was just the identity of the person who fitted PVL’s hair piece. Would of been utterly embarrassing if that ever got out.

On the flip side why would the Storm take it so far pay for Lomax lawyer and then fold like a pack of cards prior to the hearing and after the Eels got the evidence

maybe this isn't the first time the storm have asked the nrl to apply the blowtorch which raises the question who else has copped the hot end: other teams? referees?

Is it this guy ?

the timing is suspicious as soon as the eels announced they were subpeonaing the nrl suddenly the storm went from outright belligerent to very agreeable

If im being honest the 400k off our salary cap to presumably front load some other contracts to set us up for 2027 does sound very appealing and i can understand why we wouldve wanted to do it. The 300k transfer also wouldve been great for our pathway programs. So although im glad we stuck to our guns, i think the end proposal from the storm was quite good and its a shame matto is a merkin who will do anything to avoid playing.

I don’t think we lost the deal but I agree that final deal should’ve been the one they put out months ago and I’d have been happy with it

 

[85 Baby]

the offer going to f**k all to almost Lomax’s annual salary seems more than just they thought they would lose

 

[Avenger]

Final side note - so we trying to trade for Mitch B this season or what? Otherwise i havent heard many other players wanting to come back to sydney or leave their current club.

I’d take him for Lomax but only for a couple of years at Lomax’s unconfirmed contract value which is $700k a season. Any more and we are paying overs.
