lol no chance. You realise lomax and broncos or all of lomax Deardon and cowboys would all need to agree.
Seems easy - let alone no chance. It happens in big time sport all the time. Some of these trades in soccer, NFL and of course baseball and basketball. Just get it done ffs.
NRL clubs are just lazy.

Did anyone hear the Trainwreck of a quiz involving 2 Parra fans on Parramatta general knowledge this morning on SEN Breakfast to win a prize from the club.

In all seriousness how hard were those 3 Questions to answer.

I would have thought knowing your going on radio to win a prize you would sharpen up the general knowledge of the club's history.

The 3 Questions were
1 - Who was Parramatta's first Premiership winning Captain
2 - Who has played the most FG games for Parramatta
3 - How Many Grand Finals have Parra lost since 1986

Answers given by the 2 Eels Fans
Question 1 - Ron Hilditch & Ray Price
Question 2 - Junior Paulo & Mick Cronin
Question 3 - Took about 20 seconds but finally someone said the correct answer.

Ron Hilditch as a premiership winning captain lucky my car was parked still at the set of lights when i heard that answer.
I only knew the answer to no 3.

I still think its going to be tough for lomax to win this. If he does win players will start ditching teams. Any player can go hey im unhappy here, my mental health is suffering i want to leave the nrl. Ill sign something to not play for another club and 3 months later with another club. Receiving club will pay some trash money outside the salary cap and boom

Won’t happen but the NRL need to change it so transfer fee comes off the paying clubs salary cap and added onto the other clubs. Eg say we want a 500k transfer fee the storm would lose 500 and parra gain 500 on the cap.

Cowboys have to agree to the release. Lomax has to agree to go to Townsville. And yes Deardon and Parra have to also agree. Fantasy land

The Dearden rumour comes from a random dude who called MMM cause his GF lives in Sydney. Unless she is on 1mill a year why would he be the one to move? Apparently a day before it was Yeo --> Roosters and a coaching gig when retires. There probably just pranks from guys who run the show to keep dumb merkins liste ing to the pair.

"The documents were provided to the four-time NRL premiers as part of their bid to stop the NSW State of Origin star jumping ship to rivals Melbourne Storm".


While factually correct i must say i cant recall us ever being labelled 4 time NRL premiers in my time of reading articles relating to the club.

Felt weird and i thought they were talking about the storm until they finished with them at the end of the sentence.

Normally the easy out doe journos is premiership drought and what ever years its been 1986.

I don't think the gaining club would ever agree to that. There's no benefit to them. How about just the losing club gets the cap space (and the cash) while the gaining club just hands over cash. Though having clubs' caps grow from trades would lead to inflation.

If deardon ask for a compassionate release then it's only really deardon to agree and Jason ryles of course
And PVL to confirm that good players need to remain in the game avd rubber stamp it - goodness he’s sometimes stupid with losing sight of the consequences

Or just tell players you can make it even easier to change teams, just got to allow contracts to be assignable that way clubs can get some player value in return

Funny Melbourne requested and were granted 4 additional days to be able to provide emails to the eels reverent to the case.

how many emails are there, or how many need to be forensically deleted, that they can’t get them together in the 6 days initially provided….
Maybe it took them some time to find Waldron to give them a hand???
