Cameron Smith’s stunning call for NRL to return Melbourne’s stripped titles

20 years from now. No one will give a shit, just like they won’t give a shit about melbournes!

The Storm salary cap scandal was for premierships 10 years ago now.... all you have to do is look at any thread on here discussing Cam Smith or the Storm and there's a high chance people still talk shit about the Storm with "two sets of books" or "buying boats".

If you guys can't get over it after 10 years-- why do you think 20 years will make a difference?

I always wondered how players / managers can sign two contracts but not be held accountable or know they are doing something dodgey

And given the merkin was his own manager at the time, he couldnt really blame anyone else.

Except maybe barb

“Exact same thing”

You lose the internet in its entirety today.

So salary cap cheating is ok if it's only a few hundred thousand--- it's only not when it's in the millions?

Cheating the salary cap is cheating the salary cap-- doesn't matter by how much it's by.

If your wife cheats on you with a bloke down at the pub is it different than if she cheats on you with Todd Carney?? No--- in both cases it's still cheating ;)

Your the one that has been banging on like a teenage girl all afternoon about Cronulla and comparing them to the Storm.

Wash out the sand sweetheart and give it away

Resorting to Mental health jokes??

Are you sure you've even seen the Sharks 2016 grand final, because people haven't thought comments like that have been funny since the 90's bro.

Ahh, there it is. Always a reason.

I'm sorry that happened to you, but honestly bro if she gave it up for Carney you're better off without her.

This thread is in response to Smith raising the subject. How do you expect people to avoid raising the club’s and Smith’s actions while discussing his whinge?

Bro? Hahaha

Well I am gonna leave you with your non premierships in 07 and 09 and sleep well knowing my honest club did the right thing and asked the NRL to investigate (unlike your cheating scum club) and that our 2016 title is safe and secure for ever and ever, amen xx

If the guy down the pub is hung bigger than Todd Carney that could be considered
a significant factor in the comparison...
just sayin'.

I’ve never said we didn’t cheat...

What I’m saying is, despite watching the Storm get punished as harshly as they did only a few years later, the Sharks management incompetently did the exact same thing and should be punished for it— the only reason they haven’t is because Greenberg is too afraid to strip them of the 16 premiership.

The sharks didn't do the same thing as the Storm, no where near it, that's the difference!!!!!!

.... well considering that half the Cronulla squad has been suspended in their career for peptides and the other half has been involved in a systematic rorting of the salary cap— it feels like how most of you feel about the Storm premierships in 07 & 09.

The Sharks premiership has always been tainted in my eyes and I believe it’s only a matter of time before the NRL grows some balls again like in the Gallop days and strips them of it.

Bloody hell this is a delusional post. Nothing you have said is true!!

As I’ve suggested earlier—- cheating the salary cap is cheating the salary cap. It’s the same thing— by claiming it’s different because it’s by different amounts doesn’t make rationale sense.

Let’s put it this way?? Could I steal $100k from you and for you not to care?? How about $4 million??

You’d be upset at me taking both amounts. The sharks still cheated the salary cap.

Sure :wink:

You had players who had already been banned for peptides, players receiving money outside of the salary cap in the years both before and after the premiership.

If you honestly think that 20 years from now the sporting world won’t look back on that premiership as tainted you are deluded.

Only Salty Storm fans. Admit it the storm are the sharks bitches!!
