From memory the storm wanted to take legal action but news ltd told them to take it on the chin

I reckon we will get 8 points ... mostly cos whatever it is will not be huge, but worthy a penalty .... partly cos 4 of it is suspended being imposed - and there will be a second lot of 4 for much the same reasons as last time.

So it will be 2 separate penalties of 4 and they will say that cannot be appealled

If we were cheating mercilessly there would not be questions about management standing down they would be getting the f**king ass ... hence why i dont think its some massive cheating scandal as happened before ... they just want some slightly dodgy merkins gone to help get their fingers on the club

And 8 points will keep things interesting as we battle for the 8

Not sure that the former suspended penalty has any real influence here. That was suspended on one condition (governance reforms) and we met that condition, as recognised by the NRL (they let us start the season on 0). It's gone.

It cant come back if they find things werent as good as they thought at the time?

No. The condition was that we undertake a governance review and implement its recommendations to the NRL's satisfaction. If we didn't, we'd start 2016 on -4 points. We satisfied the NRL's conditions and we started 2016 on 0.

The penalty was not suspended 'just in case we find any other breaches'.

That doesn't mean that last year's trouble wont influence any penalty handed down...I'd think it will....but the suspended penalty in itself should not have an effect.

The penalty I believe will be 8 points. 4 if certain board members stand down. And I'm confident it won't end there...

We let another rep player go FFS we are a rabble!

 

[hineyrulz]

Outside backs don't tend to receive early ball in the Storm's system - they are support players. Morgan lacks size and playmaking skill but neither is essential for a centre.

So how will that make him a better player if he trundles on back here???

Sack the board!!!!

I heard that we were trying to get the QRL to delay naming the Residents team until after our AGM.

They should ban these players for life, but reduce the ban to 3 games if the Warriors board steps down... Or does that only happen to teams that have guys waiting in the wings staging a coup?

Weren't these 5 of the exact 6 players that didnt get to play over the weekend cause the didn't turn up to the mid week meeting?

Coincidentally they got on the gear the same weekend?

Does this same concoction get you fined 15% of your annual salary or do you have to OD?

Tis hard being an eel, but I couldn't imagine supporting them Worriers :lol:
