hey diehard lets look at it like thisDIEHARD said:So let's talk about the Raiders salary cap breach in 1990. You know the $500,000 breach the year you won the Premiership.
The Bulldogs were stripped of all their points in 2002 for breaching the cap by what something like $1,000,000.
And the Raiders breach was 12 years prior and they won the damn Premiership.
Don't sit there and tell me you deserve that 1990 trophy!
Anyone have the inflation rate since 1990? I got my calculator ready.

.greeneyed said:Cliffy GC said:hahahah where is greeneyedDIEHARD said:ARKO - Ken Athurson Biography said:Back home by then, other factors were emerging. Canberra were later to defend the Super League path they took with the claim that they had reached a final point of frustration with Phillip St over a claimed lack of support in their attempts to hang on to star players Ricky Stuart and Bradley Clyde in the wake of rumoured huge bids from the Kerry Packer - Supported Easts. Les McIntyre and Kevin Neil came to Sydney to see me about it, and express their concerns. They told me of the dilemma they believed they faced - of Easts luring the two players away with offers that were just too huge to refuse. I told them that I wasn't happy about such a situation if it was the case, but there was nothing I could do. It had been ever thus in rugby league, clubs now and then signed players from other clubs, sometimes paying far more money than they should have.
At that meeting something happened which neither Neil or McIntyre could ever deny - they swore they would never participate in a competition which wasn't under the control of the ARL. I'll be frank - I shared their concerns about Stuart and Clyde. Of course, they didn't want to lose two such players. But under the League's rules, what could be done? Our game ran on a free market basis. Neil told me subsequently that he had rung Ken Cowley and Cowley had said to him "Don't worry about it - we'll buy them for you." And that was how News Ltd got the Raiders into the net.
SHUT DOWN
Arthurson knew that these offers could not have been made while Easts complied with NRL rules. He clearly took delight in the Raiders team being dismantled, as he could not stand non Sydney teams being so strong. His public statements made it clear that he wanted to see the Raiders go the way of Souths... a team with a strong playing roster that was raped by Manly.... He didn't care. He wanted the likes of Manly and Easts to prosper at the expense of "upstart" teams.
I cannot believe you people cannot see through him. He was simply pushing the interests of the club he came from. This was the great drawback of the Arthurson/Quale dictatorship... they were running the league in the interests of Manly and Easts... the Packer clubs. And this is why it all came unstiched.
Laurie and Clyde - Brad Clyde said:And there was the matter of the $500,000 by which Canberra was said to have exceeded the salary cap, which resulted in a $185,000 fine from the League. It was a great mess, and at times Fraser must have cursed himself for volunteering to help us out. While locals knew the Reserve Bank governor has nothing to do with the Raiders' problems, international financial markets might not be so discerning in their judgement.
Laurie and Clyde - Laurie Daley said:When the extent of Canberra's financial problems and the half million dollars by which the committee had breached the cap was exposed to the media, I'll never forget the humiliation I felt as a member of the club. We were labelled as cheats by the press and I can still recall the abuse we copped at away games from our opponent's supporters. The entire rugby league community loathed us and there was stuff all we could say in our defence...our old administration had done the wrong thing and we had to cop it all on the chin.
The consequences of their management, a 15 per cent pay cut and the threat the Raiders would be rendered backrupt, forced me to look around for another club and after a lot of negotiating I almost joined St George!
I had heard plenty of the talk about the Raiders' cash problems in the lead up to the crisis in 1991, but I was ignorant of the back ground drama which overwhelmed all of us. And when the extent of our situation was revealed I was left dumbfounded as Canberra was 6 million bucks in the red through terrible investments and poor management.
well arent you lucky
do u want a medal or a chest to pin it on.

Seems to me even Clyde and Daley admit to the Raiders crimes. So who should we believe the very words of Laurie Daley or this piss ant GreenEyed?
Even Laurie wanted out and the story ended happily. He found his place, at home with St George. :lol:

His share would have been a lot larger if he betrayed the ARL. But he, unlike many involved in the was is a REAL man.

Narh don't need either, just like I don't need to debate with the likes of you, i'll just stick to treating you like the vermin you and the rabble you call a team ( bring back memories? ) deserve to be treated.
