If they don't have contracts for 2012 what are they getting released from ? Their contracts would have ended by now
we are yet to formally sign the “Deeds of Release” for Darius Boyd and Ratu Peni Tagive - Doust

Using the West Tigers business model that means they are both still Dragons.

Andrew you have this wonderful ability not to see the obvious even when it's laid out in front of you .

Boyd had signed an extension before the 2011 season started but then asked for a release when he decided he wanted to follow Bennett to Newcastle. This was well documented at the time of the announcement that he is leaving us.

Going by the Moltzen episode, we could still go back on our word and keep Boyd for next season which would be perfectly legal by the Tigers' standard.

And if the NRL rules in the Tigers favour maybe keeping Boyd should become an option. Just throwing it out there folks

That will never work. Boyd couldn't replace....Boyd :sarcasm:

Think like a tiger my old son :crazy: Like Drain the Dragon said lets get Smith and Costigan back as well. If the NRL rules against us it's no more mister nice dragon

Just throwing out a few new questions - If Tigers are paying Tiny Tim more money to stay with them next season does that not constitute a new contract? if so does that means they have to cancel the one he already has with them? If so .... how can they because we have a contract with him?

thoughts?

It'd be a contract upgrade, not a cancellation/new contract.

Why do Dragons' supporters keep peddling this bullshit?

It was also well documented that Boyd's contract contained a clause allowing him to leave the club if Bennett were to leave the club. Moltzen has no clauses to leave the club that are relevant in this case. It's a pretty f**king crucial difference. If we refuse to sign a deed releasing Moltzen from his contract and he tries to play for the Dragons we have an actionable claim against Moltzen. Boyd doesn't need one; once Bennett leaves the contract is voidable.

What if Boyd now wants to Change his mind and stay with his friends at Saints? We haven't signed his release so we could still keep him. Imagine how the knights would feel!

As well all know "verbal contracts aren't worth the paper they're written on"...

Verbal agreements aren't worth the paper there NOT written on lol.
We find out this week what there worth . I want a Dragons victory not because I want the little so in so but because I like Dragons Victories. And ruling against us may open Pandoras box in a lot of clubs.
