Poor NRL. They've never had to endure one of their salary cap investigations being tested in court. I imagine they'd be desperate to make sure it doesn't.

Mate we'll be playing in the finals this year, thanks to the great team and coaching staff we've assembled. Despite the best efforts of your mates. I hope it f**king hurts.

Yes all this is my fault. Nothing of the current boards doing. Keep blaming everyone else, first it was the media's fault, then it was seaward, then it was fitzy's fault now It's my fault. Yep I'm responsible for us losing 12 points. You are so geniused.

As I have already said, anyone who just believes the NRL and goes on their way do I have a deal for you. Book a one way flight to North Korea and honor the supreme leader, believe everything he tells you as gospel!

Sharp and co repeatedly told members and media they were fully supportive and cooperative with the NRLs investigation. Why do you just automatically believe the NRL and disregard anyone else?

They also said they were under the cap and had dobe nothibg wrong...

Face it, the NRL is more believable.

Sad to think we could have retired Watmough 6 weeks back, fessed up, and be currently top 8.

Broncos and Cowboys didn't have the NRL leaking to the media on a rampant witch hunt every day possible for months. There was no where near the trial by public opinion that we have faced whether they acted legally or not. Whether the board are as guilty as charged or not the NRL did not take kindly to being spat in the face of and that was the nail in the coffin up until now.

Not in my eyes they're not. When you're in bed with the media like they are, you can't be trusted about anything. Ever.

Look at how the whole thing has played out from start to finish. I've haven't seen that much diarrhea since the last time I went swimming in the Ganges.

Stop being one of their puppets and open your f**ken eyes.

Pro tip: it's not just the sport.

But really is it?

After crucifying us on Tuesday they are now backing down and changing there stance on Friday? If everything is so cold hard facts why change your stance?

I don't believe everything I read, the media is hammering us and have hammered us, where is the evidence and facts that we didn't cooperate?

According to Schubert we were under the cap by 200k a month ago, I don't necessarily believe it but it's funny that that article comes out and then the next day the NRL softens there stance.

Truth is, is the NRL really that much better then us right now?

^ Yep, Paul Kent and news limited had to get their inside scoops that the "NRL does not want the Eels playing finals football" for weeks without the NRL giving it to them themselves unless they can't even govern themselves. Is that due process?

It appears the NRL is attempting to keep information contained in the breach notice confidential

The NRL has made a claim for confidentiality over the 64-page breach notice given to the Eels. Mr Moses told the court the notice contained statements by former Parramatta CEO Scott Seward.
Mr Seward has given a 37 page statement making allegations as to what each of the five individuals knew.
"[The NRL] has relied on the former CEO to make adverse inferences," Mr Moses said.

LOL so they are relying on Scott Seward's opinion and people don't want the board to defend themselves? HAHAHHAAA

No wonder Sharp was smiling when he left HQ, this is a joke.

I'm actually happy that the investigative processes of the NRL may be exposed in this, at least we won't have to endure decades of being a shit team again if everyone is ACTUALLY on an even playing field.
