from memory it was the TPA that got him over the line, there are some here closer to the club/players than I am who may be able to confim
Well based on inside info at the time, he was apparently going nowhere and was staying with the Eels. Next day his signing with the Dogs was announced so I wouldn't put a heap of weight on what anyone around here who are supposedly closer the the player/club have to say on the matter to be frank...

Its not a well kept secret that Laundy Hotels , a club sponsor was doing dodgy TPAs.
They hasnt worked out so well for them.
Reed: Average. Burton: average. Kikau: mostly injured. AdoCarr: Ok but not great.

Still... Nice to have the option of calling on someone for a "dodgy" TPA, especially when you're not getting caught.... We just offer unders and hope for the best cause the boys love playing for BA....

yeah, there was plenty written about it at the time

it's not really a secret any more, silly money which is why we obviously weren't interrested in matching

in hindsight, the Doggies paid way overs

You wont be signing any hookers as Brads son is a hooker and he will be on the scene very soon , so dont worry about any others , its why you have signed the likes of Lussick and Hands , and obviously why you didnt try harder to keep Reed .
Must be why we shitcanned Brad’s other son

Wouldn’t they be sponsorships?
That would depend who the agreement is with. Obviously businesses would prefer more return than Morgan Harper coming to sing Dancing on the Ceiling at their work Christmas party but we should be fostering an environment where that’s the direct benefit and corporate introductions is the actual benefit.
That is how the Rorters got to where they are.

Definitely. Wish we could do dodgy TPAs and have the clout to prevent any investigations.
Is what the roosters actually do dodgy with there TPAs.

I think there just too smart and uncle Nick has worked out what the loopholes of who can sponsor players with TPAs and who can't.

He has all his Business contacts he can just tell them to give some players the money through a TPA and then they probably get access to his private suite at 12 home games a year plus other extra events throughout the year that would benefit that type of agreement..
