Greenberg said 4 times that members need to move forward and not back.

It was the best he could do without actually saying the names Fitzgerald & Spagnolo.

Take them to court, they didn't even consider our reponse!!

Todd is mates with Stewart, he should have no involvement in decision making process

NOTHING greenburg says will change anything that the members do... if the members cant have already leanrt from the past then they wont suddenly change now .... a large number of the members are actually buddies with such dipshits from the past

Nothing will change unless someone makes it change .... Greenburg talks it up but its all pointless - the merkin is all talk no substance

Steve Turner talking on FoxSports has NFI. We're a basket case because of Semi, Foran, Norman, Paulo etc.

Yes the past decade of successive boards are amateurs, not none of them made Paulo road rage, Normz get caught with drugs etc.

Mr Greenburg can go f**k a cactus as far as I am concerned

They obviously are scared we might make the finals to have decided to take our point differential. So much for mr sympathetic believing we should have a chance to play finals if we are good enough ... they wanted us gone from day one but lied to try and make themselves look good - now their realisation that cutting the squad up and taking points wasnt quite enough

The differential is neither here nor there, if we win enough games we would still end up with a higher PD than any other team vying for the eight. The best of which are the Warriors at -16, and given we play each and every team that will be likely to get into 7th or 8th, win those games and relatively speaking it's worth double on PD

It's just setting a precedent for future rulings if you ask me

Thank f**k it's over.

Let's all just move on. We deserved what we got and have to accept it.

The NRL are always going to be incompetent and have some serious issues that are continually failed to be addressed, BUT, we still deserve our punishment.

The club implied that if the sanctions were the same as first stated then their reply would have been dismissed and if so there would be further action.
So expect the club to waste money on a legal challenge now.
so they cheat and do that so badly they get caught, the person who started most of the cheating gets off scott free and was the one that gave most of the evidence and got protected.
But they are not suffering, the members, players and football staff are.
Great Justice that hey.

I disagree .... i think they deeply want to ensure we miss the finals, but tried so hard to come across as "nice guys" that they originally f**ked up - they thought forcing us to cut players would be enough, but they overlooked how tough BA has us ... they are now clutching to try and ensure its less likely, but cant go back on what they have already handed down cos nothing has changed

But you are correct that even the now 7th placed team is still in the negative, so us winning should be enough

They were never going to. I would like to see our response given Turd said it contained nothing. Must have been a pile of Ikea catalogues.

I will assume that all the other clubs whinged about our for and against.

Greenburg as slimy as expected, the sad part is most of what he said you could not argue with.


As bad as the boards behaviour had been before the punishment was handed down their behaviour after has been even worse. At least we are down in 14th were we belong.

The way Greenburg abruptly cut in and deflected any talk of others outside the Go5 has me completely and utterly convinced he is 100% protecting Seward and most likely himself

I fully accept we cheated... I fully accept we should get the ass this season ... I want all the brain dead merkins involved gone ..... but i also want to hear the full story - that is not coming

Look at the positives, the new table now has us as the best defensive team in the comp, only conceding an average of 8pts per game...

The irony of all of this is the way that the team and group of players has performed this season we probably didn't need Foran or Jennnings to make the Top 8 this season and if we hadn't signed those players we would be well under the salary cap, even with our illegal TPA's. We probably wouldn't have won the comp though.

I don't think we've currently got the team for the remainder of the season that will threaten the Storm, Cowboys and Sharks in the Finals so I'm not too fussed we won't play in the Finals.

I think we've been preparing for 2017 for two months and I don't think anything should change.

Do you know what our submission was? .... I dont .... but i would really like to know ... i would actually like something solid to backup what greenburg is saying - but at the moment its all blah blah blah

I know he can't spend 2 hours in a presser explaining it but i see nothing indicating it will be exposed .... why not? Something to hide?
