The Rumours Thread

And what 7 players will they sign to replace them.

Let's hope they can find 7 professionals with a backbone.

I believe the club will sack Vaughan and De Belin

Norman and Dufty will be sacked early aswell

Fuimaono, Ellis , Beale will also be sacked

Big rig - apart from vaughan and debellin all others are off contract so simply dont resign if we go on a massive sacking spree we have 3 weeks to replace everybody and there isnt quality around and we just cant sign players simply for filling the gaps. And if we sack players are they entitled to contract money ? if ao this would diminish what we could spend anyway. But I think Vaughan would be on very thin ice and the club should also fine them some more
Will be interesting if players show any remorse for what they did and how sincere they are It would be nice if they are made to front the media for the fans and sponsors

I should of worded it better on my part

I meant to say that Ellis , Fuimaono and Beale will not be re - signed

Vaughan imo will definitely be sacked immediately

De Belin is based off speculation that he had a clause in his contract about bad behaviour

And Norman and Dufty is just my own personal opinion as both have brought not a lot to the table on the field

Calm down. Besides possibly Vaughan, no one is getting sacked

Am sure the employment contracts of the side are being carefully scrutinised tonight.

As I stated above I believe Vaughan will
Be getting sacked

The rest will IMO not be re - signed

And de Belin’s was only based on rumours that he had a behavioural clause in his contract but I personally believe there false

If there’s not a behaviour clause in Debelin’s contract then the club is even stupider than I thought.

Am thinking PV and Norman will be speared tomorrow ..
The Board must take some action or i fear Hook may even walk as well.
Doesnt need this bullshit

 

[RED73V]

This is the perfect opportunity for Hook to get rid of the oxygen thieves that are bringing the rest of the side down. You wouldn’t see Melbourne, Panthers or Roosters in this predicament!!! Some of our players are not committed to the cause or the club they represent. It is time to take a stand Hook & out the players with poor attitudes.

Exactly. I suppose it is a rumours thread so some are just filling in time.
They have been punished enough. Vaughan well not so sure what will happen there but I wont be surprised that he is not sacked either as has a contract for next year anyway.

 

[BLM01]

If there’s not a behaviour clause in Debelin’s contract then the club is even stupider than I thought.

All players have behaviour clauses in contracts. In fact it is in a standard NRL contract

 

[BLM01]

8 weeks is a f**king joke. Yeah he f**ked up and it’s effectively strike 2 but 8 weeks?? Surely 4 would have been sufficient

He lied to the Intergrity Unit supposedly...that cost him more time

Whatever credibility De Belin had left after the standdown and trials he has foolishly thrown away by not being truthful with the investigation and the club. I expect Vaughan, who was also untruthful, and De Belin will be made examples of and their contracts ripped up- the rest will be given the strongest possible warnings. It's gut-wrenching- De Belin in particular was starting to get back to his best.

Of the others you mention only Fui is now a chance of being re-signed imo

 

[boardlumps62]

Oh you guys are unbelievable a BBQ together as a team who are in a bubble together. Get a life. I go to a supermarket in Nth NSW where no people are wearing masks and they mayvcome from hot spots like Sydney and no one gives a shit.
It's a closed environment and they might have worn masks. Sorry G'bye your too critical waste of time. Your not supporters but wingers

They are in a no non-essential travel area.

Nice of you to refer to me as a winger but I'm actually pretty old and have lost my pace.

 

[Dragonslayer]

I think there's a lot of 'wishful thinking' in some comments regarding sackings.
The only one who is most likely will be Vaughan, Norman 50/50. The rest won't be.

For every player we sack, we only have a little over 3 weeks to replace them, as all squads have to be complete by Aug 1.

As for re-signings, well Ellis definitely won't be, but I think Fui will and Beale probably.

As far as signings, it appears Sua is very close, and we are still negotiating a few others. Before this incident, these players would have been considered additions to the squad, not replacements.

It will all blow over quickly.
We the fans and club are going to suffer if a few games watching of an understrength side.
The over reaction and guessing re contracts is laughable and wont happen
As many have said Vaughan is close for a 2nd offence.
I dont even think Corey will be sacked, he is going in 8 weeks anyway
1st grade playersdont fall out odf trees and we have to a full compliment of 30 by midnight on the 31 July.
If anything our club may hit them with a suspended additional fine.
