Eels Salary Cap MK IV

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

I'd suggest breaching the salary cap would be considered a strict liability offence and there is still no reason under the NRL rules couldn't have given us the same punishment if we had breached the salary cap by $1.

.

I can't see how all cap breaches (or more importantly the punishments for breaching the cap) can be reduced to to a strict liability basis. A number of breaches occur because of the resolution of events that are uncertain at the time you contract players.

It is true that the NRL can issue whatever penalty they see fit, and the code of conduct suggests that you can't challenge an eventual finding of guilt, but you can challenge both the process and the penalty applied (at least via Ian Callinan 'the other Ian'), and you can challenge process further in court.

5. The Councillor wants the top job because he no longer has a council role

Can see that a mile away with his recent statements and attendance to this weeks meetings with the other board member.

re: proving TPAs are legal .... surely there has to be some proof of them being illegal

For all salary cap breaches in the past (the minor ones), has the NRL generally cared why you broke the salary cap, when issuing the penalty?

2. Adding all TPA's from the spreadsheet to our cap was because proof of innocence is impossible in this type of circumstance and therefore proof of guilt is assumed (see 1 and 2 above)

Can you explain/elaborate more on this comment?

1. There has been a split in the Board since mid-2015.

Do you know what caused this split in the board?

Smells like a duck, looks like a duck, walks like a duck - can't prove it isnt a duck.

How do you explain that you didn't negotiate TPA's when NOT negotiating them means you have no record of them (because you didn't negotiate them).

On the other hand, if you DID negotiate a TPA there is the chance that there is proof and therefore the assumption has been made that you DID negotiate all of them and the onus is on you to prove you didn't - which you cant.

Failing to drill a pilot hole?

Well Pokemon was the puppet to the evil dick dastardly who did a deal with the clown to get mutely and his mates kicked out of the circus

The restauranteur was also known as the used car salesman on another website
