Different strokes for different Folkes! I can't imagine the NRL allowing this to happen for Paul Gallen & Robbie Farrah!!!
Cam Smith & JT hold much power in the game and are seen as the next immortals in the game. The NRL see them as $$$

According to the NRL, the only players who currently qualify for a testimonial game are Smith, Thurston, Slater, Simon Mannering and, hilariously, Sam Thaiday.

However:

"The nominees must have played at least 250 NRL games and spent a minimum 10 years at their club. They have to also have played State of Origin or Tests, and have near-unblemished records both on and off the field"

So how do Smith and Slater qualify given the cap scandal? They knowingly signed two contracts ffs

By that rationale, Simon Mannering is the only player to qualify for a testimonial game.

Remember Warnie set up his own charity fund.

I’m thinking of starting my own charity, so feel free to swipe the credit card in my direction. You’ll be helping a good cause ( my Dan Murphy’s credit line)

We accept all cards and have operators waiting right now for your call.

Plus, if you ring us today, you get a free set of steak knives.

Ring in the next 15 minutes and we’ll double the steak knives!!!!

You should open up a bank account in Nigeria.
They will help you.
I had a nice Nigerian man willing to help me the other day.
I have his e-mail address if you need it.
