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.
1m top end. 500k bargain. Front of jersey that is.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?
It would be a minimum figure set by the nrl. If someone offered 100k for FOJ the nrl would deny it.Serious question...

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.
DS you just gave him the idea... Sunday paper just watch.
....and make a late charge for 9th spot year after year.Now they work within the cap, and are experts at the clap.
Yeah but the merkin is too dumb to think to do it himselfCoifey he’s a member of the Club so he gets that email.
If most of us think it’s piss weak you can imagine he’s thinking the same.
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
We can always count on you khant we.
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.
