Rumoured / Confirmed Signings

[roboshark]

The NRL will do NOTHING about it. As usual

 

[Quigs]

We live in interesting times.

 

[Weaponhead]

NRL will be sending in their best cap auditors, Mark Carroll and Blocker Roach. The report is expected to be technical and detailed.

In other news, Rusty hires a new mystery bodyguard for $400 grand per year.

 

[R-15-3]

He still needs to attend court at the end of the year be funny if there is more to his “fight” with Trell than has been reported so far. ( Doubt it tho )

 

[Frenzy.]

I read somewhere Liam Knight was on 500 grand a year so there's a good chunk of it. Though the whole thing does have a stink about it.

Fekk Knight. Go all out for Tom Burgess. He's on contract for 2024 but we cab talk to him from 1 November for 2025, then buy him out cheap for 2024.

Knight is a run of the mill edgy or a go nowhere middle which we have enough of

You've got me all wrong there maaaaan. Not a chance I'd want us to sign knight, just saying he is apparently on 500k.

 

[Tiger Shark]

I can only assume the raiders are asking for what value they believe him to be. They can’t be suggesting south’s cap position can’t fit him in.

Helps Raiders case that Dolphins have offered a million also, if you believe the rumours so anything well under would be considered under market value I suppose

 

[Chimp]

What happened to the whole ‘notional value’ that was supposed to apply so teams couldn’t pay massive unders…. Hasn’t happened with Lodge, won’t happen with Wighton.

You're not suggesting the NRL would play favourites. I'm shocked and appalled, sir.

 

[Quigs]

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That's how it goes
Everybody knows

 

[bluefox68]

The STUPID Sydney media (and the power-brokers in the NRL) have a fantasy:

Souths vs. Easts in the GF for the next 100 years, with both teams taking turns at winning…

 

[cb4]

My understanding of Canberra's complaint is not the value, but the structure. They are of the belief it is riddled with 3rd party payments.

 

[Dragon Slayer]

Congrats to Souffs if they pull this off. They have winning killer instinct on and off the field. NRL Premierships aren’t won by Choir boy types like Barry Russell steering the ship.

Thank f**k we are run by winners these days.

 

[Ozzi_78]

My understanding of Canberra's complaint is not the value, but the structure. They are of the belief it is riddled with 3rd party payments.

And therefore the value applicable to the cap.

 

[PJ]

Third party payments should be banned.

Have a cap or don't have one.

 

[shadowboxer]

And therefore the value applicable to the cap.

Ricky should know - he’s all over that - just like his days here and playing ducks and drakes. Corey Hughes was some accounting master stroke was it not.
Got no sympathy for them at all - hope we can go on a beat our hoodoo against them. Bloody raiders

They will capitulate now and we will need to beat them round 27 at home for a top 4 spot and lose in GP

That's still there but a player like Brooks might have a notional value of $11.25 but still be signed for a million

Wighton's been signed under the notional value clause according to 360 2 minutes ago (and the Crowe clause)

 

[Ozzi_78]

I want a KEY SIGNING. I’m not happy just resigning potential. Don’t get ya backs up either, we need to be spoken about in the same way roosters and rabbits are. Get a gun!
