Plenty of leaders are all about the money. It's not their motivation that makes them leaders, it's their personality traits. NRL players are mercenaries. Why should their leaders be any different? You need to get the romantic ideas out of your head. You think the Australian captain isn't motivated by money?

He's not out in the field because we needed him off our salary cap. He agreed to it because he would still get paid.
Hes not out on the field because his body isn't up too it anymore. Poor Watmough he has 39 mouths to feed waaaah waaaah waaah!!!

He's got paid for two years without lacing on a boot, this is a business not a f**king charity. f**k him and his 39 starving kids.

Bernie is ruthless and focused on saving money. Of course he will avoid paying if he can.
Since when are the Parramatta Eels a charity organisation??? Now your mates arent running the club anymore with professionals in charge the Gravy train has stopped. Fancy those in charge trying to do what's best for the club :scream::scream::scream:

And we offered him $$ over a period longer than his likely useful playing life.

I'll say it again. Unless you know what is in his deed of release, then you don't know what he has been agreed in the past. We don't know what (if any) terms in the agreement were conditional on insurance pay outs, and what provision there is in the deed for what happens in the case of insurance being rejected.
Oh piss off Barry stop being the voice of reason and making sense on here, can't even wind up Pou with you coming on here and making all this sense...... it's just not fair, think of Watmough and all those mouths he has to feed.......

Looks like you're the one getting wound up here. I hope Watmough gets nothing but I hope you can see how he's out of pocket because we asked him to help us out and he trusted us to look after him.

Yeah I'm sure his body will be healed up and he will be just awesome, and the he can run 680m sideways in half a dozen games and feed his 39 kids. What an inspiration he is to us all.
He doesn't need to be awesome, he just needs to be fit enough to train full time and play. Do you doubt his determination?

When we asked players to agree to a release to help us get under the cap.
Peats did for the club, Watmough just retired. He was done the moment he ran into our much worse signing who offered us way less in Beau Scott. That was in February if he was doing it for the good of the club as you say why didn't he retire then and there???

I suppose the poor bugger has all those kids to feed. The poor bugger has to work in a restaurant he owns and not pay himself. It's just not fair :frowning2:️ What a cruel world thIs is.....

lol, so wound up.

Poor Watmough trusted us and we didn't pay him 4 years of salary from his 17 games of services. We are absolute monsters and we f**ked him over good and proper he does have kids to feed :frowning2:

He even admitted it himself that his attitude wasn't good enough last year. I doubt him big time. I hope the dopey Merkin shows up to training and security throw the merkin out on his ear.

Well you tell me. If he was going to get paid out anyway why didn't he retire on the spot if he was only about the money? It obviously wasn't a genuine career ending injury. We only decided it was when the NRL added his TPAs to the cap.

You don't think the culture has changed? How can you say it's got nothing to do with Watmough? Arthur refused to pay overs for Hayne so why would he pay huge money for Watmough if he didn't expect to get more than playing ability from him? Arthur spent a year at Manly, plus all those years at Melbourne. He knows what's required at a strong club, and it is leadership in the playing group. That's why he signed Watmough and Foran.

BA learnt from his mistakes and was frigthend to take such a big risk again.- Smart coach. Watmough I never liked the guy from the way he carried himself. Comes across as a smart arse. Hid his injury - Sucked us in and then f**ked us hard in the bum

No that's something you made up. His attitude has always been top notch, which is why he's played a thousand games and won premierships and Origins. He said he missed out by not hanging around with the boys after work. We signed him to change the culture at training and on the field, not to have coffee with the boys after work.

So are you saying it wasn't a career ending injury and he's not playing anymore for the good of the Eels???

Keep making shit up to support your bs arguments. You even reckon he shouldn't get a pay out from us but argue the point anyway.
