Rumoured and Confirmed Signings and even more Crap XXII

[insert.pause]

too funny

dunno how Manly could fit him in their cap now after their spending spree

there's zero chance of staying at manly.

 

[cv8z]

Sandow would be happy

 

[the_apostle21]

f**k this club, seriously.

Here, here.

I am becoming disillusioned with the club, always in the news for the wrong reason, can't run a club, always losing, etc, etc.

I just want to watch some footy...

and too late to sign for any other club for next season, looks like he is stuck with us

Roosters?

 

[insert.pause]

could be Foran's agent wanted it but we didn't

again, then why is it in there? Why didn't the board know the details of multi-million dollar contract their ceo was agreeing to?

 

[eels_fan]

That'll do me

IF this turns out true and our management stuffed up our best signing in decades I'll throw in it.

This rabble is unbelievable

you don't think the titans would be interested? a kiwi marquee is the next best thing to a qlder on the GC.

It's all hot air and argy bargy methinks. Foran's agent runs to the press cos we went back to them asking for them to reconsider unreasonable terms. It does not mean that we have repudiated the contract.

Manly's Kieran Foran may walk away from his four-year deal with the Parramatta Eels, according to reports.
As Fairfax Media reported in May, Foran has a clause in his contract that would allow him to quit the deal if there was political instability at the Eels.
News Corp is reporting that the Kiwi Test five-eighth is having second thoughts after Parramatta attempted to alter the terms of the contract.
Parramatta are without a CEO following the departure of Scott Seward.

Couldn't Manly and Foran's manager come up with some BS story that rugby union have made him an offer, forcing the NRL come to the party to keep him in the code, they stump up the cash outside of the salary cap and he stays with Manly.... too easy!

 

[Dutchy]

If he does leave Parra (probably won't IMO) he won't be coming back to Manly.

 

[Kornstar]

Would also be big kahunas to walk away from that much money.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Not sure what to make of it. First it's probably unlikely any club could afford Foran's asking price for next year.

I find it strange we signed him several month ago it we are now trying to change the contract details.

And key point from article is:

. KIWI test superstar Kieran Foran could be forced to walk away from his four-year

Hayne did.

Maybe we are being strategic.

 

[Kornstar]

Hayne did.

Where did I say he wouldn't? Just pointing out that it would be a pretty brave thing to walk away from, especially when we accept mediocrity and you don't even need to bother really putting much effort in and you still get paid.

Hayne is following a dream and if it pays off it will be history making.

 

[Pazza]

To be honest I am not surprised.

Either way, having a player with those kinda clauses in their contract or having him walk now we are screwed.

But seriously we are in such a bad place that to get anyone to this joint we have got to do stuff like this. So depressing.

I imagine his manager would have a plan B already well and truly lined up for Keiran that would see him on similar remuneration.... his manager isn't liekly to be A-OK with a reduction in commission just because Foran decides he wants to go somewhere else, they will have sussed out another deal elsewhere as a back up for sure...

 

[Joshuatheeel]

It just looks like we are trying to remove the "politics" clause and Foran and manager are going "get f**ked no way", there has been some negotiations. Yet Foran refuses to any changes, manager leaks to media - get this up you eels!! We control the situation !! Either back down or Foran walks.

 

[Mickyd39]

Does anyone else not really care whether he comes or not? I won't be terribly upset.

I'm with you, i always thought we were paying overs for a very injury prone player.
