Garbage contract that should never have been offered. That said, just makes you look amateur by pulling out after round 13. Disgusting all around.

This is so true, if Parramatta is against this clause then why did they wait till after round 13 deadline to complain?

they only just found out about it after Seward left a few weeks ago, the negotiations have been happening for a while now between Daniel Anderson and Foran's agent to try to re-negotiate 2 contract conditions, but looks like an agent decided the best way to put pressure on the Eels was to leak it to the press

Titans dream come true.

Tim Mannah has to be the luckiest bloke in the league, so ordinary, just everyone feels sorry for him after his brother past away otherwise he wouldn't even be in first grade.

The agent leaked it??

I love the club... But parramatta are notorious for leaking shit....

IMO it would be more likely that someone from the clubs side leaked it...

I still think Parra can sort it out & Foran will be playing with them in 2016. Most clubs possibly interested in signing him already have rosters sorted for next year & it would be require a lot of juggling to make room for him both financially & with the appropriate players. The only exception would be the Titans & he won't sign for them.

the old board was notorious for leaks but those responsible are gone, they were part of a faction associated with a long term ex CEO

The only thing with more cache then a QLD Origin player on the Goldie would be a Kiwi international

Your dreaming of you seriously believe that...

The leaking has been happening regardless of whoever is in control.

And yes... It's still happening...

Because his the dickhead that addressed the media about it on nbn news, its true.

Mannah said he was annoyed at once again having to discuss non-football matters with the press.

"The frustrating thing is we're spending time again focusing on things outside of footy," Mannah said.

"It'd be nice to just come here and talk about the positive result we had against Melbourne, talk about the rest we had on the weekend, how fresh we're feeling now and how we can prepare and hopefully get back-to-back wins this week.

"The frustrating thing is we're not talking about that.

"We're talking about off-field things and what management could've done and what's happening over there."

The Eels veteran said the team was surprised by the news Foran could pull the pin on his deal, but was in no mood to discuss how the backflip would impact the club's future.

"It'll be a huge loss of energy to focus so much on it," he said.

"For us, it's business as usual.

"If we focus so much on what could happen and what could possibly happen next year, I feel we're wasting a lot of energy ... when we could be focusing our energy on playing footy and preparing well."

I'm not sure why you have termed him a 'dickhead'. He was asked about it from the media his thoughts and he gave a honest and fair response without completely defaming the Parramatta club.

If anything I thought the way Tim Mannah handled his comments about the Kieran Foran situation were very professional.
