Farah hasn't ever been convicted for speeding, DUI and DV, or signed 2 contracts for the same season.
He had a beer on a scoreboard. That sort of tomfoolery is driving people away from the game and should not be tolerated.
We have to look after GI because, as his achievements above clearly demonstrate, he has given the game so much. In fact, I have it on good authority that he's the reason Greenberg's daughter and her friends play touch footy. And really that's the whole objective of the competition satisfied right there.
The obvious thing for us to do is impose a GI levy on registrations for juniors. You know, something small - maybe $750/year for each kid. That way GI would finally get the compensation he deserves after so many years of selflessly devoting himself to the game, and upholding the highest of moral standards of society, with barely any financial reward.

So what happens to all 3rd party payments he received / receives which obviously don't form part of his contract?

There is no A.I. Just better computers
What has GI earnt in the last 12 years playing footy?
Playing contracts 7.5 million . ++
32 origins X $30,000 = 960,000
Tpa's = 1 million plus?
Second contracts??? $$$$+ boats + +
Ambassador roles = 500,000
Sponsorship deals = 500,000?
But yeah let's spend NRL money on this guy and NOT GIVE IT TO JNR LEAGUE where the game will die.

souffs: "We believe it is different because Inglis is not retiring because of mental health or injury issues, he just believes it it the right time."
nrl public: "Why does he believe it is the right time?"
souths: "Because injury issues are causing havoc with his mental health....er wait...stop...don't quote that."
Ooooh,
Lucky for GI.
Maybe even Toddy couldn't get him off the new laws!

Anyone caught drink-driving in NSW can now lose their licence immediately under a tough new penalty regime that will also see offenders fined almost $600.
First time, low-range drink-drivers from May 20 can be slapped with an on-the-spot suspension of their licence for three months and a fine of $561.
Roads Minister Andrew Constance says NSW is taking a "zero-tolerance" approach to drink and drug-driving.
"This means anyone caught drink-driving in NSW, at any level, including low-range, can now lose their licence immediately," the minister said in a statement on Monday.

Shoddy didn’t seem to think that drunk drivers speeding was a dangerous offense given his glowing reference provided to GI and fan favorite of the pride of the league...

DESpicable Manly
There is no way they deserve a cap exemption for GI. Definetly not for this season. Other clubs have been in the same boat and received nothing.
I have no issues him working with souffs but while he was contracted then it should be included in their cap.
If they get it then I want a credit for skivvy and snake (I know, never happen).

They will get some sort of cap relief but they shouldn’t. Some players will be in a financial position to retire without further payment, others will not be. Salary cap relief should not be dependent on whether or not a player is financially secure enough to forgo payment of the rest of their contract (putting to one side the whole charade or finding Inglis a job to compensate him).
Also, one of Todd’s arguments about why Manly’s TPA conduct was so egregious was that it distorted the player market. Well, signing a guy to $1m for four years and allowing the club to replace him with another $1m player half way through his contract distorts the market as well, considering there are only so many $1m players. Souths took the punt on Inglis, it didn’t come off. You win some, you lose some, but Souths shouldn’t be given another crack at signing a marquee player just because they did a dud deal.
In saying this, the other clubs won’t complain as they have probably wanted / will want to do the same thing. Just wait for the NRL to declare this to be a ‘one off’...
Also, if I hear anyone say the game owes Greg Inglis I think I will puke. The game owes him nothing. Zilch. Nada. It’s the other way around - he owes the game everything; after all he has mega bucks and got a cushy post career gig out of it. He deserves this, but the game has been exceptionally good to him.

Can?
Yeah I know, consistency is overrated.
Only the pets get this kind of treatment just look at the joke testimonial money spin for Smith and Thurston last year. It’s pathetic really.

If they allow Inglis' salary top be removed from the cap it will open the floodgates for other teams with players under long term contracts who have played one season to long
Darious Boyd would be the next one to try and have his salary removed even though he still has 3 years left on his contract

Anyone see that wanker Hooper on NRL 360 arguing that the Inglis rort is different to Snake and Matai. It's the same issue. Kent arguing that Manly tried the same thing and got a blunt NO from Greensprog. Absolute double standard garbage from the NRL and that Manly hater Hooper backing up Greenturd
