That is disgusting.

Why is that brat - an EMPLOYEE - dictating the terms?

He is contracted to US. WE own him.

Fitzy, get tough mate.

He isn't dictating anything - the be all and end all remains in Parramatta's court.

I think for once Fitzy IS actually getting touch and making Jamie eat his words a little - if his "publicly stated" reason for leaving Parra was the city life, well Fitzy is making him stick to that.........or.......come out with the REAL excuse for eanting out????????????

maybe it will all come out soon, and we can all get on with things a bit better

but one thing i do know for sure is that Manly are going to be very very very pissed off he he doesn't end up with them after *all that has gone on* ?????????????????????

If he dosn't want to play for the club it would be in the best interest to let him go but the Eels have not done this as Lyon has requested so I wouldn't say Lyon's is dictating terms.

Sure now they are bending on the issue but that is smart considering that he still is a contracted played and because of this he still is eating up a part of your salary cap (even if you don't pay him anything - because he is still contracted for x amount the club still has that x amount taken out of the cap that they cannot spend for next year or the year after so it would be wise to finally release him)

Given that the Eels decide on which club he would be aloud to talk to I would say that the Eels are dictating terms and not Lyon

Sure Lyon hasn't agreed to his part of the contract but this happens on a regular basis and thats why players are released on a regular basis apart from so called salary cap issues

The point is Fitzgerald is only being stubborn because it is Manly.
There have been many occassions that clubs have released players because of a request.
Manly have released these players after they signed a contract(something which you guys holding lyon to) - Zinzan Brooke(spelling), Trent Barrett, cant remember the other names?, the point being the player doesnt want to play for the club so why force them to, it's not like they are going to be interested in playing good footy?
Your club is just run and coached by Arseholes, plain and Simple.

Typical slimy parramatta river attitude, I'll be watching with Glee as your pathetic club continues to slide down the ladder.

whatever you think of Fitzgerald he's not stupid... he's letting jamie dig his own hole. remember that he hasn't released him .... just given him permission to talk to them. i'm sure that Fitzy would be including a very sweet deal to suit parra if he was to release him and probably makes lyon not that attractive to prospective clubs.
