Rumours and Stuff

are you going to tell them Legal_Eel?

Why bother? I could give the actual position of our silk and it would be mocked, contradicted and derided by the likes of Pou and Gutful!

Pou is an equal opportunity derider and contradicter.

 

[Tiger5150]

Which is exactly what I said,

Then you are both wrong

that old mate had a cry about and then said the same f**ken thing

I didnt say the same thing at all, I pointed out that its federal law, not a state law and the court doesnt look at previous cases as a guide, the court is literally bound by previous decisions. It is what the law is.

The non compete clause is the reason he got a release . If they rule the clause is void then the release may well be void as well and he’ll be expected to honour his contract until we’re satisfied to give him a full release. If that happens we can all see him breaking his contract and refusing to show up in which case he’ll be looking for a rugby union club .

I've made clear I don't know enough to have an opinion. That's why I'm asking questions. But if your answers sound like bullshit or are full of holes, don't expect me to keep my stupid mouth shut. I want to understand, and appreciate your time and effort in clarifying, even if you wish I was unable to read any of your posts.

Previous decisions are a guide because no two situations are the same.

No poaching. He is ours. Unless a better offer comes.

Did all the tino rumours die out for us?

Who did we trade him for?

From what I understand he's giving Hannay this year to turn things around. After that, he would most likely test the waters if the Tit's go belly up.

And yet:

I also don’t think it gets to a further hearing

It has reached court. It will be decided by the courts.

And yet:

it’s how court works

it motivates people to find solutions

my view is that the club probably had this application in the works for a few weeks and have kept their powder dry… once the nrl got involved the club knew they would have to go to court and enforce the validity of the release and restraint to exert authority over lomax and ensure that anyone who wants him has to pony up.

it’s my experience that you would not commence this application nor issue such a detailed and particularised press release unless you were very confident in the advice you received.

Yes. We would have had our lawyers (T-Boon Legal and Conveyancing) look over the release conditions very carefully and also ensured that Lomax had a lawyer sign off on it as well.

Why would Melbourne storm and Clinton schifcoske be subpoenaed ?

Possibly, but that's more a criticism of the rest of us.

Great question

Yeah they don’t want to do work either.

I can’t see us giving up now but now Lomax has to pay lawyers and do some work, I think there’s a good chance he may ask if he just goes to Japanese rugby for 3 years that we pull case

I’d say (& @Tiger5150 will agree but say I’m wrong) Scum for what they were told by Lomax of his contract status, and Schifcofske for discussions with R360, mostly though they are probably fishing exercises/stuff we already know
