Salary Cap Witch Hunt. **Appeal unsuccessful**

[Mitch]

Not sure if it’s been mentioned but they spoke to Josh Massoud about this on the big sports breakfast this morning. He said he heard findings could be handed down as early as tomorrow as the NRL don’t want to drag it into the opening week of competition.

He also said he felt sorry for Manly as he doesn’t believe that privledged information given to police should have ever made its way to the NRL as it was not related to any criminal matter.

DCE hit by astray firework at today’s season launch. A sign of more salvoes ahead between @SeaEagles & #NRL in salary cap breach talks? https://t.co/3oXpWzzByf

The ‘berg was on the news tonight defending their stance re: Manly.

Also defending a $30k bill for Chairman Stan Grant’s farewell.

Haha I was watching from behind and saw that. Also gave Greenturd a big boooooo when he came on. Happened to have a uni excursiOn at the quay and stumbled upon the launch. Lots of good looking cheerleaders.​

A few junior rugby league clubs could have made $30,000 go an awful long way. Disgusting largesse for the pigs at the trough.

The culture that Greenturd leads at the NRL is a disgusting rort, to throw money away like they do when the game in the bush is dying on the vine is absurd!!

Greenturd and the NRL have one big focus and that is the health of the game everywhere except NSW. When are the Sydney clubs going to wake up to this?

This farce of an investigation that should have been sorted months ago is now a black eye for the game and it is now an impasse that if we are found innocent god forbid, the leader of the game, Greenturd, his position becomes untenable. Wishful thinking I know of me!!

The journo’s on Twitter were reporting that John Grants farewell was $50k not $30k, makes it even worse!

Precisely, my local club could have had an absolutely fantastic party with that dough.

Greenberg is quickly loosing his immunity to accountability and I expect loosing support from the games powerbrokers. I was surprised to hear Kent openly criticising the NRLs hypocrisy in giving a testimonial to Smith and Thurston on the basis they were clean skins, in circumstsnces where Smith had two contracts when Melbourne were cheating the cap and the drama at Coffs. Hooper the goose could only reply don’t Shoot the messenger. He must also think that reasonably minded people have short memories and are stupid. The NRL insults our intelligence time and time again and thinks they can continue to get away with it. Mr Greenburg’s position is close to being untenable IMO.

I was watching a channel 7 newsfeed about the NRL opening / DCE firecracker incident & Greensprog's ugly head came on. Talking on the topic of cap resolution he said words to the effect of "I've got some further information i need to consider" and "I'm not going to set a time frame for a decision". Fck as soon as I heard that I wished that firecracker blew up in his sphincter.

Sorry his bald nobhead got in the way

It shouldn't be up to TG to say: "I need to consider new information and decide on it", there are rules in place and did Manly break the rules is the question, not did Manly fall outside the biased expectations of a single entity. Wanker

Whilst DCE said it'd be good for the game to get it sorted (I like the use of the word game, and not Manly) the club also has a good record of being able to perform well when stuff is going on in the head office. So I don't think this will affect on field performances.

I saw the "Guess what Manly hates you too" sign in the launch ad and they actually had a taxi driver laugh and say 'but I like Manly.' - which was a nice and overdue touch.

Peter Beattie says 'all the teams are favourites' showing once again he is a media tart (and a doofus).

Holding the launch in a public park is a bit of a joke. There should be enough cash for grassroots footy, a decent launch, and a few bucks for Grants goodbye bbq, but that would require competence.

Can you imagine the state of this thread when the verdict comes through? I've got a headache just thinking about how much there will be to read.
