Rumours and Stuff XXX

If talking sport says anything, it is only likely they have no friggin idea

That show, not that I listen anymore, makes Matty Johns look like Nostradmus

When Gus Gould states it is not happening, it is not happening. Talking Sport and the rest of the media just have to make stuff up to fill newspapers and fill air time. Corey Norman is staying at the Eels he ain't going anywhere.

yeh,

$570K is the amount of our TPAs, not the cap breach, so if we were under by say $200K, we only need to shed $370, alegedly

OK, so you reckon the total NRL determined inappropriate salary cap activities is $570k, not the amount we have gone over the salary cap?

 

[Twizzle]

yep

 

[Chipmunk]

yep

The NRL's own statement contradicts what you're saying - http://www.nrl.com/parramatta-salary-cap-preliminary-findings/tabid/10874/newsid/95530/default.aspx

Mr Weeks said the NRL's Salary Cap Auditors estimated that the Parramatta Eels are currently around $570,000 over the salary cap.

@ Chipmunk, you can go with that if you like and you have provided a genuine source.

Its just not what I was told, so who knows.

Is that what he said or is that how someone interpreted it?

knowing how dodgy the NRL are they'll probably add any payout to our salary cap and fine us

It's a Statement from the NRL, not a newspaper article. I'm guessing something like this would have to be have been signed off by the CEO, if not then at least Weeks himself.

Maybe the NRL are wrong, or have miscalculated.....

Yeah I noticed that. I think there'd be plenty of garbage in their breach notice to be honest,

Well they never claimed it was true in fact they probably leant towards it being false they simply reported that it was a rumor doing the rounds

 

[hindy111]

Would you prefer losing Norman and Hayne returning?

If Norman is going to cost us 800k plus. I reckon we would get Hayne for 1 mill plus all the TPA's he would pull. Would not need to do anything illegal.

Very true mate but I guess you also saw this which backs up what I was saying

Its just very hard to know what to believe even though its part of an official media release. The more I hear about what has gone on over the last few years the more I think the NRL have no idea what they are doing. Doesn't really matter who is in charge.

All the cap breaches are a result of whistle blowers and in the warriors case it was self whistle blowing.

Without whistle blowers they cannot administer the cap, that bit is obvious to me. Dunno what the answer is but the current set up is a mess.

Personally I dont believe anyone is salary cap compliant but they dont have factions or whistle blowers to the extent we do. That's just my personal opinion.

I agree with all of that.
