Eels Salary Cap MK III

[ash411]

well I hope the club gives choc the respect he deserves by officially announcing his retirement before we get all excited to be playing for points...

Agreed, and I hope they give him a big send off on Friday night, if his retirement comes through by then.

I realise he's only been with us a short time, but he did a lot of good while he was here, mainly off the field, and to retire when (in reality) he really didn't have to, was a big thing to do for the club, So he's earned himself a big send off..

I'm preparing a statue to go along side Pricey

DO you reckon he'll stay in any other capacity? Or he'll just enjoy his down time.

There are very few players in this Comp you would offer a job to once their playing days are done and he in my opinion, fits that bill.. I think he's the sort of guy you can use the same way the dragons do with Wendell

#NRL NEWS: Injunction on the #NRL by 5 @TheParraEels officials DROPPED, suspension now stands. #SalaryCap

Can someone translate that to a dummies version please

 

[Kornstar]

Can someone translate that to a dummies version please

They can no longer run the club and can only work on their defence to the cap audit.

They better resign b4 Friday or we're f**ked.

 

[yy_cheng]

So they lost the court case?

 

[Kornstar]

They better resign b4 Friday or we're f**ked.

Regardless, they also better not show their faces on Friday!

 

[Kornstar]

So they lost the court case?

i assume so. One of the smarter people will explain it no doubt.

 

[84 Baby]

So they lost the court case?

The injunction being removed doesn't necessarily mean the case has been decided, just the court deemed the injunction not valid

@ChrisBarrett_
The injunction of five Parramatta officials from being suspended has been dropped. Their suspension stands. Hearing set for May 31

the situation is different though when the initial penalty was handed down the nrl ruled the board had to stand down or the eels would be playing for no points even if we were under the cap that ruling has now been changed

And that's fair enough. All that's changed now is the board has 28 days instead of what was originally mentioned. The NRL can still backdate / wipe out any points gained from the Souths game. That's the risk we run if the board can't prove its case when they reply to the NRL.

On a side note, The thing I think most people are forgetting is that the NRL can't forcibly remove our board members but it can sure as hell not award competition points if the board members are still there and if it's finally deemed that we have cheated. For Parra to acknowledge that we are trying to be cap compliant before the Souths game is an automatic admission of guilt.

Even though I believe everyone has a right to defend themselves. I really hope this doesn't turn into an ongoing legal case. It could take a long long time. For the clubs sakes it needs to end quickly.

 

[84 Baby]

And of course they mean the suspension stands once the NRL has heard the club's response and made their final determination because #proceduralfairness

I reckon they will resign.
