An agreement she didn't even sign.

she has not claimed to not have signed an agreement at all

Hall is claiming she never signed an agreement clearing zappia of inappropriate behaviour


its seemingly heating up for a battle of the better legal team

Look the biggest issue in the game should really be whether Warren Smith still wants to root Josh Dugan after the youngster was dropped back to the lower grades a couple of weeks ago.

Does he still have the same feelings for him.

Questions we need answered.

No. But she seems to be in no doubt that her signature appears on that document even though she's apparently never seen it.

If it were me I'd wait to see the signature, or lack of, before declaring a forgery.

Zappia is a tawdry disgrace (although representative of many bosses), however I really have to question this line:

"left her with a black eye and ruined her life"

Er... hardly.

And I really hate that everyone refers to it as a "pornographic" e-mail -- from what I've seen it showed nothing worse than you would see ON TODAY TONIGHT! The only reason they "blurred" it is because it was too tame to be sensationalized...

What a ridiculous position.

She claims she didn't sign it, yet apparently there was a document signed with her signature. Therefore the signature has been forged.

It suits her story to say she didn't sign it even if she did.

The media are out to get rugby league and the Sharks and they'll make it look good for her.

She's already ignored a 20k confidentiality agreement with the club so she probably thinks she do what she god damn well likes now and that includes denying she signed anything even if the piece of paper with the sig on it is staring her right back in the face.

She'll probably come out with a story next week claiming she saw Zappia and Barry Pierce fiddling with goats in front of the players after a game.

She knows the media would lap it up, she'd get paid heaps and heads would roll regardless of whether it was true or not.

The power of the woman in RL these days knows no bounds.

jenny hall signed a CA with the club

she is not refuting that - and there are 20,000 possible reasons why she wouldn't

she is however refuting that the CA contained a clause that cleared zappia of any wrong doing - most likely her copy of the document had no such clause

therefore if the original document possessed by the club contains such a clause - then she is claiming it had been re-worked after she signed it

its a legal play on words and is becoming a tug-o-war between fairfax and news ltd

what is more interesting is where news ltd are getting their information...

Fair enough. I'd like to know why she'd be given 20k to sign a CA but then clear the Sharks of any wrongdoing?

Besides, this story first broke in November last year, so it has always been common knowledge that it occurred.

Let's focus on the positives: the Sharks are an all-embracing club.

Club officials and players have embraced the following:
  • Bunning or group sex
  • Infidelity
  • Homosexuality - evidenced by men pleasuring themselves while other men have sex
  • Pornography - via email or sex toy distribution
  • Racism - Gallen v Paea
  • Intimidation of women
Give them credit

Just great.

I TOLD you people the club was a joke.

No one believed me. Said it was a phase.

Its been a joke since they have won nothing, had to be bailed out numberous times, and now the culture is one worth squashing....

i still hope they die.

And gosford come in
