Cherry Evans backflips on the Titans

[ek999]

In the real world, when a company goes into receivership they don't go spending big and trying to outdo other companies by hiring their staff at above market rates.

Suck it Titans, NRL should have let you die, and you bet if there wasn't a TV in place they would have.

In the NRL world, the Titans are vital because without them revenue would be shot to pieces so they are propping them up and trying to reduce overheads as much as possible whilst maintaining essential expenditure such as player wages. The NRL have not given them any extra money to spend on players or allowed them to breach the salary cap

FWIW (not much!) he has lost a lot of my respect.

He whinged and whined at the way he was "treated" by the media, despite refusing to definitively give an answer (and at times flaming the situation himself), and has now ultimately back-flipped!

I'm glad he did, mainly for all the tears on here.

Suck it up Titans, you will always be losers, MANLY FOREVER

Dont bother. This has been explained on here a million times and some idiots still can't seem to grasp it.

B-e-a-utiful.

It's like an episode of game of thrones.

A) For starters the NRL has a salary floor so they have to pay a minimum amount.

B) There's a salary cap so on average they aren't paying above market rates for a squad of 25.

I don't particularly like either team but I'd rather a successful Manly where real fans are happy instead of the GC where people with 5 minute attention spans will be happy before they move onto the next thing.

Feel for the titans DCE has f**ked them over to the point they don't even have time to get Seizer to stay.

Titans should now chase Hastings or Jayden Nikorima

I normally don't like anything you post.

But agree with you here.

Fox Sports are saying 6 year, $10 million deal

http://www.foxsports.com.au/nrl/nrl...g-on-titans-deal/story-e6frf3ru-1227380941597

If true (which I doubt) that is a massive risk to Manly

 

[Incorrect]

Chris Sandow could end up a big winner out of all this... Titans will have bucketloads to spend on anyone silly enough to so up there.... Sandow strikes me as one such silly fella!!

What a f***ing flea.

Suck it up Annesley - go back to the liberal Party again - you deserve each other

1.66mil/year. If true even with massive third parties that could cripple Manly, even with salary cap increases.

I can't see it being that long. I also don't get how an open-ended contract can work.

Is it in the player's favour, the club's favour or is it a sum per year and can either party sever the contract at a particular juncture each year?

Haven't bothered following this whole saga, so I might be off here, but sounds like it took the NRL/Titans getting f**ed over, personally, for the NRL to step in and change the Round 13 rule
