Manly Salary Cap

Manly invited the NRL in. Promised full co -operation. Now they are tying up the investigation in legal wrangles. I'm not sure what to make of it.
My question to those who have followed this closer than I, what are they trying to hide? Seems they didn't realise the auditors would look this deeply and now they are worried something (whatever that is) will be uncovered. I'm just wondering, if they are all clean, what are they worried about?

I would assume that considering past investigations conducted by the NRL they weren't expecting the scope to be widened in such a fashion.

they do a forensic audit with these things

the same as they did with Parra last year and they complied and got caught out

BYOD is something a lot of businesses are doing these days - More often than not, there is a disclaimer that your device can be audited if used for work purposes - Do Manly have a BYOD environment?

At least we've won a premiership this century!!
Premierships mean f**k all compared to standing in the game, look at Souths, even when the Seagles have a lean year they don't lose the aura of a RL giant . . . teams with a culture earn their place, they don't just win it

That's the point I'm trying to make. It SEEMS as if Manly are worried wrongdoing of some sort will be uncovered. I think they figured it was going to be the usual 'nothing to see here' NRL investigation. Now the NRL are looking deeper, they are definitely less compliant. For the sake of their own season, if they have nothing to hide, they should co-operate and get it over and done with

DCE might've been paid more than we thought to renege on the Titans . . . so what, one club players shouldn't count in the salary cap

Nah mate.

It allegedly involves player (s) no longer at the club.

Its from 2 or 3 years ago.

I have a theory on who it involves and why this has come up as a result of the CC......

What if (hypothetically of course) the CC were ask in ng questions of certain "identities" and money they "allegedly" paid to players for inside info or match fixing.

What is the businessman or "identity" they were questioning said "yeah I paid him money, but it was was for salary cap stuff, not match fixing"

Good way to throw something back on the club and get yourself out of match fixing allegations.

Would also explain a businessman saying he made payments to multiple players from multiple clubs.

All theoretical of course.
