What’s the alternative??? If a player wants to move on, he’ll move on!!! Contract or no contract.

Gorden Tallis had to sit out the season in 96

Peachey would have had to do the same thing when the Titans wouldn't release him

Yeah not everytime a players wins out. But there’s nothing the dragons could of done to make him play either. Remember the dragons also had a contract with Tallis. Just like we did with Judas and dogs with $BW.

.... all the way from Warrington this time next year :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Woosh. You missed the point entirely. He wanted out weeks ago for 2019. His club told him to stick it up his jumper. This proves that merkins can’t get out of a contract whenever they feel like it.

Maybe he changed his mind about 19. Maybe the club was happy to release him, but they persuaded him for another season.

This proves it?? That’s a small sample size don’t you think?

How’d it work out for Tigers when Moses decided to dummy spit? Nothing a club can do if a player suddenly ‘loses form’.
They can force him to stay. They just usually don't with highly paid players because there is better things they can do with the money. Lomax is not a highly paid player so they could afford to carry his contract in reserve grade just to make an example of him.

His contract doesn't end till 2021 with Dragons. Maybe you missed the point.

One example is all it takes to disprove an absolute statement.

'All swans are white' is disproved by a single example of a black swan. 'NRL contracts are non-binding' is disproved by one example of a player being forced to honour a contract.
