I'd still love to get a ref, I've been searching this very topic for ages, I wish I could get it out of my head.If both parties agree there is no issue but most players are going to want to get their money.

That's why we need to put the pressure while he's over there. So he doesn't want to come backIf both parties agree there is no issue but most players are going to want to get their money.

The only thing I can find about this isAt his age, IMO he won't risk his contract with us, unless he can get a better offer in England, which would be extremely unlikely.
We may have to fork out a bit in updating his salary over there, if we don't really want him, it is probably the best-case scenario I can see.
If it's a mutual decision to part ways like @Tiger05 and @TheDefinitionOfMadness are saying then I can't see any other ramifications re salary cap.
Yeh it's a weird one but as I said the NRL won't allow 2 contracts. The new Warrington contract is it but it would contain clauses, like return to us, medical insurances etc. Our CEO said in the latest BTR that the delay in announcing Bateman's departure aired on Friday was because all parties had signed off on medical stuff.Just to be clear I don't believe that his contract is now null and void. They would have announced that. I think they want his contract off the books and they are doing everything to get him off the books but unless he gets another contract and he is happy to move on without compensation I reckon we'll be paying him to play for us until his contract is over.
I don't see any ramifications if Bateman willingly leaves or we sack him but that is a long way off happening just now.
Congrats, 10k posts mate.At his age, IMO he won't risk his contract with us, unless he can get a better offer in England, which would be extremely unlikely.

It all boils down to 1 thing.... Bateman has to excel and help them win a GF. That will boost up his value to them.
