Eels Done For Massive Salary Cap Breach

[Bearfax]

Will they have their spoons stripped.

Maybe. But certainly Jack the Knife will be out to address the Eels faux pas with this unfortunate fork in their road

 

[Wombat64]

I feel that would be grossly unfair. Just strip them of their points for 1981,82,83 and 86.

They will just have their bums smacked with all their spoons.

 

[manlyfan76]

Brilliant, just brilliant.

 

[Wombat64]

Good news that we're not paying all of Cheyse Blair's wage.

I wish we weren't paying any of it.

 

[eagle66]

Yes and the NRL will takeover the club, place directors on their board, and recruit Sam Burgess from the UK to play in the blue and gold.

And recruit Hayne!

 

[Shoe1]

Surely the nematode Greenberg can blame manly a bit for this. After all Blair is at manly, they are overpaying hoppa and Darcy, and have forked out for Choc and Kieran.

 

[Shoe1]

Funny this comes to light just after the Board elections. I wonder which one of the jilted party did the leaking?

Ray price said something about massive revelations to come out or some such comment.

 

[Eagles2nv]

And recruit Hayne!

Dont forget Folau

 

[Chip and Chase]

LOL. Parra breach cap and still useless. Reminds me of that other pathetic club from the Shire who embarked on a systemic performance enhancing doping programme and still finished at the bottom.

 

[mjb136]

Strip them of all points for the year - $500k over is a massive breach,

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

And the answer to last week’s quiz is the Parramatta Eels.
The other two were well administered sporting organisations.

 

[Vyssini]

They will just have their bums smacked with all their spoons.

And they'll probably enjoy it...come to think of it, they will need a backside the size of Nathan Hindmarsh's to use up all their wooden cutlery.

 

[globaleagle]

Any contracts signed over the period for when they were in breach should be voided. Players (or their manager$ more likely) should have to start again.

Not saying that as I want choc or foz back...but other clubs then get to have a crack at these players and maybe the clubs who once had them. This may start getting pressure on clubs to be legitimate in their dealings if players 'and their families' begin to be affected.



.....Actually it's probably a crap idea....forget you read it! - sorry.

 

[HappilyManly]

Strip them of all points for the year - $500k over is a massive breach,

The breach is 750k, the fine is 500k

I still blame the NRL Contract Registration non-system

 

[Fluffy]

This is pretty damn funny, they really need to take all of Forans, Chocs and Lussicks money and go hard after the storm guy who ran their scam and is now running things at the roosters

 

[Prez]

How come the NRL can pick up Parra's rorting and not Easts'?

 

[The Who]

Yes, you are right. And that is no doubt the reason the NRL won't enforce clubs having to publicly divulge the salaries of their players. It would show just how much Easts are cheating by.

 

[globaleagle]

The Eels breached the NRL Top 25 cap by $101,718, the second-tier cap by $233,036, the NYC Top 20 cap by $60,915 and the NYC second-tier cap by $8277. It is the first time an NRL club has been found to have breached all four caps.


......Hooray! They're finally first in something!!!!

 

[simon64]

They must be blowing up deluxe over at the one eyed trouser snake site.

I bet Foz didn't realise his contract would be paid in Monopoly money.

 

[Mavin]

Why aren't they prevented from signing any players for 5 years that's a deterrent for anyone rorting the cap.

525k over is not a mistake it is blatant cheating.
