Semi Radradra

[Chipmunk]

Probably right...though he did play for Australia...ATO would have noted all his comments made about Australia when he got selected...they're bastards like that.

I doubt he owns any property and I don't believe he has any famlly ties here. The rules about the ATO chasing you are more about stopping citizens of Australia from hiding their assets from the ATO in tax havens, not for people that have been here for 3-4 years and returned to their home country multiple times.

I can't wait to see taka link up with his outside center Jennings.

Too right. We've got a handy backline. As long as we win at least 50% of the scrums, we should have a pretty good year.

 

[surfer1]

Unfortunatly I am a bit bitter and twisted about Semi.

I hope they dont play him in firsts and try out other wingers.

He has shown zero respect

Given that he is not a citizen and has only lived a short period of his life in Australia, it's doubtful he would be considered a resident for taxation purposes once he leaves. Fiji might wants some coin though.

He's an Australian resident

"Semi is eligible to play for Australia now, we've made those enquiries and he has been here long enough to be eligible now that he has his permanent residency."

But as you said, if he leaves the country for 183 days+, he can declare himself as a non-resident for tax purposes

Semi can paddle a log with a stick all the way to France for all i care.

Our hooker hasn't won one against the feed for a while now, he needs to lift his game

As long as our second-rowers push hard, we should be right.

and get the lock to screw the scrum to our advantage

All that will not matter one iota if we don't win the kicking duels.

Semi Radradra will have to apply for permission to leave the country for NRL Auckland Nines

Michael Chammas

Semi Radradra will have to apply to the courts for permission to play in the Auckland Nines, given the recent travel restrictions placed on the controversial Eels winger.

I'm the same. I'm going to find it hard to get excited about anything he does on the field now. I hope he f**ks off early.

At the end of the day, Semi has simply agreed to play for someone else when his Eels contract runs out. Disappointing, but (at this stage) he hasn't actually f**ked off mid-contract like Lord Voldemort.

Toulon will want him from August when the season starts. My guess is our first bye week he heads back to Fiji and then we never see him again...

My guess is that he's "stood down from playing only" after his court appearance next month until 1 October...

After that happens who knows what else might just occur. But my guess is that the club will probably be forced to release him to get him off the salary cap.

As someone who seems to love money as much as he does, I don't think Semi will want us to sue his arse for breach of contract. I'm sure his manager will advise him that he wouldn't have a leg to stand on.

 

[bartman]

So long as he comes out in front ovrrall, I reckon the guy wouldn't care.

That is (court decision pending) Semi gets paid by us until August, slips off to Toulon and starts earning more straight away there, is sued by us to retain a piddly 3 months pay through to end Oct, but keeps earning a bigger salary with Toulon in Nov, Dec and into the new year.

Comes out in front, manager makes a cut and does too...

If he attempts to play for Toulon while under contract with us, the club will seek an injunction.

 

[Green River Eel]

Semi will be back playing against us in no time, and id be giving instructions to bash him on the park if i was BA, get Nathan Brown, Manu and Scott to put him out of business.

He doesn't even have to do that anymore. Just has to say "Semi is leaving Australia and has no plans of returning." He just has to reasonably prove he has no plans on returning, which is mostly not maintaining a domicile and... WOW! That'd be a great conspiracy. ATO look if you have family ties in Australia. Semi's all but cut those by being charged with DV, or allegedly "DV"

I love how people think he just loves money, like they wouldn't so exactly the same f**king thing.

Even if we gave him $500k, after management & tax he's really only looking at $250k. As opposed to $750k in France where he's looking at $625k. Don't know what the cost of living is in France, but an extra $375k goes a long way wherever you are
