Guys, all of this Parra cap cheating is an accident, just like Melbourne's all of those years ago. Melbourne couldn't help it if they 'accidentally' gave Cameron Smith a yacht and didn't record it because they didn't want to look ditzy. Same principle here.
Parra can't help it if they 'accidentally' send money to various sources to give them an edge in the salary cap and 'accidentally' set up shoddy third party deals to sign Anthony Watmough. I think we are judging them a bit too harshly. People make 'accidents' every day.
Seriously this is Hot Fuzz level of 'accidents'.

Difference is Melbourne won premierships and Parramatta won spoons.
NRL are being so nice to the Eels of late, maybe they could strip them of their wooden spoons!

The NRL" darlings" will escape the latest furore just as easily as a $450k salary cap overrun was overlooked prior to round 1.
They need them to be successful , otherwise the Wanderers will overtake them and we can't have that happen can we?

How funny would it be, if Parra were made to play for zero points like the Scumos were
Foran would indeed be hamstrung !

More damaging revelelations about parramatta and the salary cap coming out tomorrow
If proven guilty they surely must play for no points this year
You can kind of accept people being naive, or even incompetent, but if you get advised that something is amiss, you choose to ignore that advice, then you really don't have a leg to stand on. The big issue has always been did people at the club deliberately mislead the NRL, because I don't think the NRL will give us any leniency if that can be proved. And assuming they have this email they can now provide there was deliberate deception. I"m more concerned that Hooper was confident enough to run with this because you would think that would require an NRL confirmation, and if they're confirming this, we're in a lot of trouble.
Parramatta Eels were warned over dodgy Anthony Watmough NRL deal
THE NRL is aware of documents detailing how the Parramatta Eels board of directors were warned about a potential salary cap problem in relation to a third-party deal for big-name recruit Anthony Watmough.
The documents show how the Eels chief financial officer last year told the club the Watmough deal had the potential to put Parramatta in breach of the salary cap rules.
While there is no suggestion Watmough has done anything wrong, the latest red flag for the Eels will put further pressure on the club’s power brokers.
The issue for the Eels around the Watmough warning is the club’s CFO warned the board of a possible problem last June.
The Eels then signed a statutory declaration last October guaranteeing they had complied with the NRL’s salary cap rules, ignoring the warning from the CFO.
The development comes as the Eels board of directors and club power brokers find themselves embroiled in a fresh salary cap investigation.
With a new election for the club’s board approaching in May, The Daily Telegraph has published explosive allegations about the Eels deliberately devising ways to skirt around the NRL’s strict salary cap rules and regulations.
Champion Eels fullback Jarryd Hayne, who is now playing NFL with the San Francisco 49ers, is also at the centre of the allegations after details emerged he was paid $39,000 after leaving the club.
The Watmough warning will form part of the NRL’s widespread investigation into the way the Eels have been handling the salary cap.

New salary cap breach claims unknown to NRL: reports
MARCH 9, 201612:03PM
CONFIDENTIAL internal documents from the Parramatta Eels NRL club reportedly show the board and senior executives have overseen a culture of flouting salary cap rules by rewarding players’ third-party sponsors with corporate boxes.
The Daily Telegraph reported on Wednesday that board minutes from 2014 show rewards for third parties, such as free and fully catered corporate hospitality, were discussed openly at the highest levels of the club.
The reports also claim that a Parramatta official paid former star Jarryd Hayne tens of thousands of dollars well after he left the club to join the San Francisco 49ers NFL team.
Hayne’s manager has denied any knowledge of the payments.
The Eels have already forked out a $465,000 fine for salary cap breaches in 2014.

Channel 7 reported on Wednesday the NRL’s recent salary cap investigation into the Eels’ books did not inspect the $39,000 worth of payments reportedly made to Hayne last year.
There is no suggestion Hayne has done anything wrong.
It has also been reported the NRL was not previously aware of the claims of prohibited third party payment sourcing made against the Eels.
Under NRL salary cap rules, NRL clubs can’t be involved in any way in sourcing third party payments which must be made directly from a third party top the player.
“Third party agreements are payments made by companies directly to players,” NRL rules state.
“There is no restriction on the amount a player can earn through third party agreements where he is being paid for his own intellectual property, without the need to employ club logos or names and where the company involved is neither a club sponsor nor are they acting on behalf of a club to secure the player’s services.
Parramatta also snared Michael Jennings in the off-season.Source:News Corp Australia
“All third party agreements must be registered and approved beforehand. This is to ensure that they do not become a way for clubs or players to use sponsors or third parties to undermine the salary cap. There are provisions for club sponsors to enter into agreements with elite players and for details see the Marquee Player Allowance section.”
Former NRL coach Matthew Elliott said he was shocked by The Daily Telegraph report.
“I can’t believe it,” Elliott told Fox Sports News.
“It’s just astounding. The fact that it’s been signed off on by the chairman of the board of directors as well. The biggest inhibiting factor for on-field performance at Parramatta over recent years has been their front office and the leadership of the organisation.
“I just hope for (Eels coach) Brad Arthur’s sake, that that’s not a distraction to his team and he can keep them on course. He has to talk about it. He is talking about it at training right now.”
The NRL only last week concluded a review into the Eels’ administration which forced the club to make front office and board room changes to avoid being stripped of competition points.
“Both the NRL and the Eels believe these governance changes will help the club become more stable and, ultimately, more successful and that is what the fans and members want to see,” NRL head of integrity Nick Weeks said.

^ Here's hoping, but as long as the NRL insists on doing nothing about it, it looks like Parra will continue to LOL @ the rest of the league.
The NRL will stick their heads in the sand and let them off as usual.
They've let them rort the cap for 2years with only a fine & let them buy millions of dollars worth of players since with the release of players valued at a lot less.
Why would they bother to take action now?
The NRL are as much to blame as the slimey eels as each club would try to rort the cap any way they can. To be found out and not deducted points is a mark against the NRL who have basically offered our salary cap for sale.
No points deduction, you just have to pay more for the privilege!

Would be funny if Hasson's contract is the straw that breaks the camel's back.

Faecalmatta, a broken down club, continuing on its broken down way, since 1947.
And in the process, continuing to redefine that well-worn term, 'bottom of the barrel.'

NRL360 stated that Foran's $1million Clause, which would have allowed him to walk if there was a dysfunctional board, was removed by the NRL to get it through the registration.
It's truly karmic for Foran

Parra's pathetic 30 year run of outs could see them lose the west to both the Wanderers AND the Giants - what a legacy!
