I was surprised the NRL forced the dogs to pay for Jack Jackson salary this year in the cap. It was the correct call &
But they can refuse to register a player. That’s how they enforce the cap. Souths can pay Wighton whatever they want, for whatever role, but if he plays rugby league the NRL decides whether they get competition points for their wins. That’s how they enforce the salary cap without it being a restraint of trade.
Of course it’s his business. He can go where he wants. It’s probably similar money to what he’s on now so it’s not as if it’s ridiculous unders. Plus he can say he wants to play for a club that strongly represents his culture. As if the NRL is going to argue with that.
Spoon recipients 2013, and Hayne flopped in the final two rounds of 2014 when we could have limped into the finals. Hayne started phoning it in (and thinking about his other/next "dreams") well before he finally left at end 2014, so alas I don't think there would have been any lethal combining as such.
Hayne was the best player on the field in the final round of 2014.
But does that suit the narrative?
So are you also saying that because Moses was offered $1.5m by the Tigpies, that we shouldn't be allowed to sign him for $1.2m?
He was lazy as f**k in that game, and only put in effort for 40mins.
It's a fair point. What use is the salary cap if players reject bigger offers? If the weak clubs have to pay more for players they will stay weak.
Uncle nick would pay the fine as a tax write off.This is how its done Matterson, ffs...
Roosters’ hard man Radley under microscope for post-match comments on Anzac Day
The England international won’t risk a suspension and wasted little time agreeing to a fine issued by the match review committee, but the NRL hasn’t finished looking at his swipe at the sin-binning.www.smh.com.au
Nah, Radley will pay it on the way to The Lakes for a round with Uncle Nick.
Radley only cares about winning football matches. Matterson pumps all his cash into his disabilities charity and protein supplements. He doesn't want to waste it on fines.This is how its done Matterson, ffs...
