Rumours and Stuff

[JokerEel]

It’s just terminology, I’m not trying to conflate what’s legal/illegal. If we argue successfully and stop him playing for Scum without our consent, we’ve restrained him from plying his trade.

No again he restrained himself by saying he didn't want to play rugby league.
We aren't stopping him going to another rugby league club but we just want a trade in equal value

it feels like this discussion has gone full circle 800 times...

how long before team list Tuesday?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Whether it’s a fair condition on him is largely irrelevant though.

I’m not sure the courts will agree.

If he could restrain himself then it stands to reason he could unrestrain himself though. Him saying he doesn’t want to play anymore is a part to the validity argument of the restraint.

Exactly, without an accepted return we are stopping him from playing for a specific group (the specificity is also a part of the validity argument). We’re getting back to indentured servitude.

No way, I’m waiting for opening submissions.

I can’t believe the court case isn’t on Kayo.

At least sbs could cover it with some French Cabaret during luncheon adjournment.

It’s the fact that the courts WOULD agree that makes it irrelevant. It’s a “water is wet” point.

Sg ball had one. Ryda and Fletcher named.

No contracts can't be broken because he changed his mind....

He has now agreed to 2 contracts at the Eels the first where he agreed to play for the club for 4 seasons. This where the club gets sponsored by companies with the knowledge Lomax will be at the club which will also be part of the trial btw..

The second contract he agreed to was departing the club as he did not want to play rugby league anymore so the club and he agreed on a new contract where he got something and where we also got something. That's typically how a contract works.

And it was very exciting!!!

missed opportunity for PVL to include it in the broadcast rights

But nor can you contract out of law. The law is you can’t contract into a restraint of trade, BUT FOR these situations X, Y, Z. Those situations don’t change it being a restraint of trade, it just makes it allowable to those situations.

Lomax changing his mind isn’t by itself one of those situations.

He has now agreed to 2 contracts at the Eels the first where he agreed to play for the club for 4 seasons. This where the club gets sponsored by companies with the knowledge Lomax will be at the club which will also be part of the trial btw..

100% this is a brick in the wall of our argument.

I sniff opportunities for club merch:


And for the kids, endless adventures as Justice Jinky finding against Zac and even sentencing him gaol:


Sorry about the eel, that’s one of @Twizzle’s impugned and infamous overseas import products.

 

[The Predictor]

The Storm have done a great job for the NRL in Victoria. Their success is responsible for thousands of NRL fans who would not have been NRL fans if it weren't for the Storm's success.

Credit for that at least. They're still a pack of merkins, though.

Other than cheating the cap on several occasions, one them possibly costing us a GF, we agree to disagree, their ethics are non existent

I’ll change the subject. Hey tigger boy @Tiger5150 what’s this I’m hearing about the Tigers trying to charge kids 65 bucks to get into a trial at the 7th wonder?

You’re better off leaving it as Justice Kunc. Has more cut through with a wider audience

Last year they paid the kids to attend…

 

[emjaycee]

Where is the restraint though? We haven't said he can't play in the NRL just that we require a reasonable trade.

Condition imposed on the destination such as a swap or compensation, aren't between us and Lomax so we would possibly still be viewed as restraining him.

Wasnt it similar to last year
I recall when Parra played a trial last year at Leichhardt a few mates were thinking of going and saw the prices and thought it was a gee up for a trial game.

 

[emjaycee]

That is entirely out of his hands though. It’s hardly a fair condition.

FFS.

 

[emjaycee]

Spot on. I think this is likely and easily your best post in a decade.

Highly debatable.
