It looks a bit amateur but it's not without precedent. The Mucus ran a "save a raider" campaign when they got done for their salary cap back in the 90's and Clyde and Stick had to leave. They were so poor they were asking members to cough up dough to sponsor players.

Now they work within the cap, and are experts at the clap.

Serious question...
Does anyone have any idea what sort of dollars would be involved to become a sponsor? Front of jersey, rear of jersey, or sleeves/shorts etc? Are we talking a million plus, or $100k type thing? Do they offer packages or is it really judged on a case by case basis and tailored to what the sponsor thinks is fair for their money?

1m top end. 500k bargain. Front of jersey that is.

We should offer low rent for 1 year deals. None of this empty jersey shit, that cheapens the brand more than copping lower fees for a season.

It would be a minimum figure set by the nrl. If someone offered 100k for FOJ the nrl would deny it.

I for 1 think that email is not too bad & so what if he asks for leads for sponsors.

We need the f**kers & I don’t care how we get them.

Still think he shouldn’t have self reported though, he made his own job that much harder.

Got to disagree Cardy.

Can you imagine if Rothfield wants to make a story about it.

Bet he’s been contemplating it.
Sharks boss asks members for leads to land a major sponsor.

That’s white flag stuff right there.

It is an amateur look asking for sponsor leads, I cringed reading that. It's like scomo trying to fit in and be everyone's mate...just do your job and say something intelligent ffs.
I'm betting there is a few sponsors just waiting for this salary cap fiasco to end.
If they run on the field with a blank Jersey Barry should resign

I swear Lyle did the same thing.
Maybe Frank can confirm but I think I heard him say almost word for word on the sharkcast the same thing.
Maybe I read it.
But... bazza is not the first Sharks Person to ask .
...if it works... then great.
I’m sure it is the shittest job in rugby league.
These players don’t make it any freakin easier either.

However
It looks like a desperate move.
