Craig all I can say is that Jealousy is a curse you've made an utter goose of yourself by carrying on with all this garbage.
fees being paid directly to the player is not the sole criteria of the salary cap, never has been never will be. as i pointed out with kingston for eg, his "nominal value" for 2010 he will not receive.
:lol: mate that's a joke isn't it? how does the money the bulldogs RECEIVE count against their salary cap? didn't think that one through did you? or do you mean french rugby? if they have a salary cap, they can do whatever they want with it, we're talking about the nrl's salary cap.
i agree with the sentiment, nice heartstring pull but no cigar, a rort is a rort. buying esl players via transfer fee isn't exclusive to english players. this precedent opens the door for richer clubs to "buy back" aussie stars with money other clubs can't afford.
i certainly understand why bunnies fans want to get away with it while they can, but this is a deadset rort imo.
every club DOES have the same opportunity to approach 9. 9 then has the choice to decide wether or not they are interested in the player, and what terms. as evidenced in gasnier's deal, the arrangement is not guaranteed by 9 and definitiely unguaranteed by the club (dragons).
you really have no idea dude
What a load of crap.
They helped two clubs at the expense of the rest. Do you really think that the other clubs wouldn't want the same deal?
Seriously mate, get off the dope, it is mashing the last few brian cells bouncing around in your head.
Moron.
it's a rort because it destroys the principles of having a salary cap system at all
Fein mate please close this thread before it gets even lower than what it is now CJ is the complete idiot.:lol: :lol:

Let it rideAppin my friend, it is a fair request but I will defer to General Sugar.
My stripes are still drying in this regard and I don't want to offend the whatever minority group CJ is a member of.
Roy will be dally m prop and captain of the year in 2010. Our superstar pack will only enhance his play . Don,t forget boys Roys signing was truly the beginning of the new Souths era under Rusty . When Roys career ends he will be remembered as a Rabbitoh legend and the man who captained our 21st title win.The other guys are jealous that their clubs lacked the skill, expertise and cashola to bring the best player in the world to their club.
The way our pack is developing, Roy Asotasi may not even rate a start.
We got our man, these days, we usually do.

even though it's one way traffic Cwaig will soon have a head on and come to the realization he should have went the other way.
The entire league comunity knew Bradford wanted a fee to release our Sam.
Nothing underhanded or shifty happened the NRL were aware of the transfer fee and have endorsed his contract a legit transaction.

"Oh hai Channel 9, can we have some more money to re-sign Alan Tongue?"
Fmd. Who is this genius?
Why would a transfer fee be counted under the salary cap? It is not paid to the player. It is not part of anyones salary. It is an amount given to another club as compensation for them allowing a player to be released before his contract has expired. Burgess would have signed for Souths a year later anyway.
If Souths have the ability to pay a transfer fee and other clubs negotiating for the contract do not then why should Souths be penalised? Souths have operated within the laws of the game and other clubs had exactly the same opportunity.
Pal all I can say is that you are one sick Individual hoping a player gets badly hurt disgusting stuff!Just like Riley Browns tackle on wing was legal and within the rules, yet you guys seemed to think it was unfairm because it happened to you.
Who gives a crap, honestly the guys a great player and souffs done well to get him, but we have another Riley Brown in the ranks and come rd 1 3 rd tackle it will be burgess's shoulder that will be feeling the heat.
i can see him sitting on the sideline for half the comp after a well placed legitimate tackle
bring on rd 1
