Jamal Idris will take an indefinite break from rugby league after successfully requesting a release from the Penrith Panthers.

Idris, who had one year left to run on his NRL contract at the club, played just 28 games in his two years at the club as he battled injuries.

"I love the game of rugby league but just at the moment I need to take some time away," he said.

"I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at the Panthers but I did not want to continue playing if I couldn't guarantee giving them 100 per cent."

Idris was previously given time away from the game in 2014 by the Panthers as he battled personal issues.

Idris was recently rumoured to be in discussions with the Melbourne Storm.

Some dude on TheFilthySpammers is claiming Seffa has signed with the Sharks.

 

[Twizzle]

Didn't they claim last month that he signed with the Raiders ?

 

[Gronk]

Is it just me or do the Sharks seem to have 50 FG players on their books ?

I've done a depth chart for the NRL teams this year as I was bored one afternoon. As it stands the Sharks have 25 players from what I gathered from their player profiles page and who Zero Tackle has signed to them. So they're halfway there.

That was Junior.

Has Peats fully recovered from his neck injury?

That was Smiths idea, with him gone I can see they idea mothballed.

No club should get a leg up to fit a marquee player in under the cap. Hayne and us included.

Agree 100%

Agree.

What I think is fair enough is if the league allow abnormal backloading in cases where the 'outside' player becomes available at a time where it is not feasible for any club to adjust their cap expenditure sufficiently for the current year. People can say 'just shift some of your existing stars', but unless that means shifting them overseas, the same number of salary cap $$ have to be sitting in books of the 16 NRL clubs.....so that doesn't work.
