D day for Parramatta

[Shorty]

So this is even more embarrassing for the NRL, I'm guessing the Eels have found faults and are banking on them.
If only the Eels board put this much effort into running a good team consistently.

:lol:

Meltdown at his own stupidity.

Meet me at the aquarium tomorrow.

The Eels are confident of a reduction in penalty. Should hit the media in a week or so. :thumb

Not surprising.

I guess maintaining a strong team in a traditional RL area is more important than maintaining one in a non-traditional market.

 

[_Johnsy]

what are your thoughts on the Parra salary cap rorting situation ?

Keep your head in the sand....

Pot meet kettle.

"The revelation came from the testimony of former Broncos chairman Don Nissen at the corruption trial of former Peter Beattie government minister Gordon Nuttall in Brisbane's District Court.

The Australian has reported the NRL's probe will focus on payments allegedly made to several players, including former Australia prop Shane Webcke, by Talbot in return for guest appearances made at functions, mines and hotels under his business umbrella.

Talbot has never been officially associated with the Broncos through an NRL-approved club sponsorship, but the founder of Macarthur Coal was a long-time member of the Thoroughbreds - a group of wealthy businessmen supporting and advising Broncos players.

During his evidence, Nissen said Talbot was a generous man who had given money to some Broncos players, which was not expected to be repaid.

Under further questioning by crown prosecutor Ross Martin, Nissen said Talbot was "a committed fan" of the Broncos."

The then NRL (aka News Ltd) conducting an investigation into a club they owned, mmmmmmmmmmmm. :roll:

How completely unsurprising.

Eels to get away scot free in the end, as well as losing Watmough as an added bonus.

They were also confident in not being penalised at all iirc.

It has already hit the media ... Schubert is going to try and convince the NRL that the club wasn't rorting as badly as first thought

 

[The Mad Hatter]

With the Giants winningx the NRL needs a strong Para brand.

Everyone can do the math.

 

[Miller was a legend]

Hang on. So the argument will be that they shouldn't loose as many points because they didn't cheat to $570k over the cap, they only cheated to $200k and although they signed Jennings on false data Watmough retiring will now bring them under the Cap. Oh and it doesn't matter they allegedly paid through false invoices or that they deliberately and deceitfully tried to hide what they were doing.

Ok good luck tomorrow.

I do however hope they are cleared to play for points this week onward.

 

[Maximus]

How many more fish can fit on the one hook?

Lol is anyone surprised by which 3 posters it was?

End yourself you pathetic oxygen thief.

So the biggest spelling/grammar nazi around has a sook when someone returns the favour. Dickhead.

I take it you know all the facts and have read the preliminary findings in the NRL report? I'm still excepting plenty of twists in all this, as more facts come out. Interesting times.

Haha doubt this dribbler even knows how to read.

Can't spell that's for sure 😂

We will see who the dribblers are.

You can't seem to accept your mob are cheats. So when the final penalty comes down we will see who is dribbling their pillow at night.

Enjoy what's left of your season sweetheart xx
