NRL probes alleged salary cap breach involving Gold Coast Titans Skipper Scott Prince

THE NRL is investigating an alleged salary cap breach involving Gold Coast Titans skipper Scott Prince.

A special Daily Telegraph investigation has received allegations from a former club sponsor which claims it had an agreement to build Prince a new $400,000 house, free-of-charge.

Both Prince and the Titans have denied the claims through their lawyer.

The full story - including exclusive evidence and documents - will be revealed in tomorrow’s Daily Telegraph.

The NRL this afternoon confirmed it would pass the claims on to salary cap auditor Ian Schubert for investigation.

"We will certainly look into it further but at this stage we've spoken to Michael Searle and he strongly denies any breach of the cap and has offered complete access to the salary cap auditor to examine all accounts,'' NRL chief executive David Gallop said.

"We're always happy in the mean time to receive any information that people wish to bring forward.''

not sure if the DT has ever been right about some of their bs stories

my money is on it being legit and another DT fail

 

[Cletus]

It'd be a massive breach if true.

 

[Eelectrica]

This would be payback from Simcorp I over the Centre of Excellence deal.
I'd be very surprised if it's true.
If it is true, I think Searle goes from genius to king of all dunces very quickly.

Hahahaha

What a surprise.....

Who dug up the Oasis projest stuff with the Dogs?

 

[Gaba]

the dogs fan will come in make trouble and will be baying for blood :lol:

 

[El Diablo]

reporters at the SMH that were not League journos

 

[stuke]

for the future of the Gold Coast I hope this isn't true. their previous incarnations have been a rabble but this time they have appeared to get everything right. they worried me when they started flying Jonah Lomu around in helicopters but everything else has seemed to be great from a young club establishing themselves.

I wouldn't and yes, won't Searle be exposed if it is proven correct!!!!

And while he is at it,Ian Schubert can entertain us with his thoughts on how the salary cap is working so beautifully for the Melbourne Storm after their fourth appearance in a Grand Final.:roll:

The rags throw a lot of crap around but they rarely get stories like this wrong. They have teams of lawyers at the ready to provide advice on the potential for libel.

It would explain the Hannant situation....that's for sure.

 

[Coaster]

This has nothing to do with the DT, it is Simcorp, i have no doubt.

 

[Danish]

bullsh*t they don't get this stuff wrong.

This is the same paper that plasters tigers pack rape across the front page.

I'll believe it when someone other than the tele starts reporting some facts. DT exclusives are usually nonsense

Do Simcorp build houses?

I thought it might be that other mob that sponsored them whose boss died in a car crash?? Can't remember names, but they are into residential real estate.

There is a big difference between reporting an alleged incident reported by "a victim" compared with presenting evidence from your own investigation. They do the former, in disgraceful fashion all the time, but the latter, they rarely get wrong.

 

[Coaster]

Well there is only one Ex Sponsor, that we are currently taking to court that have made false claims about us in the past, and have a vendetta against us.

Thats Simcorp

 

[gaterooze]

Just had a blurb on NBN. What's this about?

 

[TheDalek079]

if this is under the table then surely it wouldn't show in the Titan's accounts??

Mmm. I they have their accounts in order, it could easily be pulled off with a few brown paper bags
