DailyTelegraph.com.au said:NRL investigating property transaction between Eels prop Darcy Lussick and a company connected to Eddie Obeid family
JOSH MASSOUD, JAMES HOOPER & REBECCA WILSON EXCLUSIVE THE DAILY TELEGRAPH AUGUST 14, 2014 4:31PM
THE NRL is looking into a property transaction between Eels prop Darcy Lussick and a company connected to the family of corrupt ex-State Labor MP, Eddie Obeid.
Gerard Obeid controls the company which sold the property
A Daily Telegraph investigation to be published in full tomorrow has found a link between the Obeid family and Parramatta.
It concerns an apartment Lussick purchased in Sydneys west 12 months ago from a company wholly controlled by one of Obeids sons, Gerard.
Lussicks manager Wayne Beavis said the purchase was legitimate and backed by the appropriate paperwork
The Daily Telegraph has also uncovered information that Eddie Obeid Jnr was in talks with Parramatta in early 2011, when the club was attempting to lure half-back Chris Sandow from South Sydney.
The NRL declined to comment specifically, however The Daily Telegraph understands its salary cap team has been aware of the Obeid link for some time.
Now that they have been raised, those are the kind of matters which would form part of the regular audits we conduct at each club, the spokesman said.
