He'd actually be a decent signing for the Tigers. Does he have to serve his suspension from the NRL once a contract is registered?

If so, a contract could be registered now and he'd be free to start the 2018 season.
The NRL have shut him out. His suspension doesn't start until he is contracted but a club also has to sign him for a fair price. What's a fair price for a bloke who is suspended for half a season?

It won't happen but let's say Moses is released next week. That's still about 5 1/2 months of salary cap they'd free up. I reckon the NRL would register a contract for Barba for about 150-200k for the remainder of this year and then he is free to play from round 1 2018 for a regular contract. I reckon some team could get value out of him for about 450-500k a season.

Sign him on match payments for this season, 50k a game then a normal contract in 2018. Fair contract as it is very good money but also fair on the club as he may only play 1 game

Well if the NRL don't make an allowance for his suspension when assessing the fairness of his 1st year salary, I reckon he'd stand a fair chance of challenging that in court. No problem with applying the suspension, but if he's only going to be available for X% of the season, and that is known before he signs a deal, it should be reflected in the cap treatment.

Did we miss an apology from Erin Molan after Semi was found to have no case to answer, certainly appeared to me and others that the tirade launched against DV was targetted at the time, immediately after Semi was accused

Understand she is a media darling, but she is a bit of a koala

No but she thought it was "So unfair!" and held back tears when named in court as having an affair with Watshisface Bell.

Never understood the Molan hate amongst NRL fans tbh....
Yeah she's alright ..... maybe she's getting a little humble pie with the semi getting off thing, but i still dont think it was ever proven he was an angel

She never even said anything wrong.....

Erin Molan said:
“I just want to say something here, because I feel really strongly about this, and I want to preface it by saying that the presumption of innocence 100 per cent should be afforded to Semi because he does deserve that, these are only allegations at this stage,” she told The Footy Show in June, 2016.

“But if this is proven to be true, and our game does not take an incredibly tough, strong stance against this, then we are condoning domestic violence."

“We are saying to every kid, every teenager, every man out there that it is OK to be violent against women."

“We cannot support White Ribbon as a code and we cannot support domestic violence awareness, raise money for all these great causes if we’re not going to walk the walk.

“It has to stop. It’s enough. It’s too much.

“The victims of domestic violence live with the impact of being hurt physically for the rest of their lives.
“It doesn’t matter if you’re a superstar, or you’re on big money or you’re a really big deal. It is not OK, ever.”

It would have been nice if Erin Molan came out and took a strong stand against those women who blatantly lied about getting assaulted by SKD and Hazem El Mazri and dragged their names through the mud.

Yeah, its a bit like saying - I dont wanna say you are guilty, but ...

I believe she is pursuing defimation cases against fairfax and someone else for writing stories that suggested she may have had a fling with that dude .... well maybe you shouldnt have taken your strong stance in the same paragraph of naming Semi
