Salary Cap Witch Hunt. **Appeal unsuccessful**

[Shoe1]

I've heard that.....and from what I have heard one of the first to be exposed would be that slimy twat with the bald head who runs the show and what corrupt $hit he was in the thick of at his old club.

I’ve heard that Greenberg actually has hair, but CHOOSES to be bald so he appears more evil.

two former Manly stars they insist were owed a total of $450,000 in non-paid third-party payments. Neither agreements were put in writing

The old verbal TPA

Good luck in the NRL getting that one to stick in court

Verbal AND unpaid. Sounds like a smoking gun to me.

Did I tell you about the time Greenberg told me he'd pay me $1m/year in brown paper bags if I signed with the Dogs, and then he didn't pay it?

Sea Eagles salary cap breach: North Shore grandmother caught up in investigation

A NORTH Shore grandmother has become caught up in Manly’s salary cap crisis as the NRL investigates third-party payments the mystery benefactor has made to Sea Eagles players.

The 81-year-old Sea Eagles fanatic, who asked not to be named, said she had no idea her sponsorship deals were being investigated when contacted by The Daily Telegraph.

The mystery woman revealed she has been a third-party sponsor to several high-profile Manly players over the years, including former star five-eighth Kieran Foran and hooker Mat Parcell.

She said she usually supported one or two players a season, who were paid through a trust fund, and that her agreements had all been registered with the NRL.

Kieran Foran was one of those sponsored by the mystery woman during his time at the club.

But now the NRL Integrity Unit is investigating whether or not her acts of generosity equate to third-party deals or donations to ensure players re-sign.

“I have registered third-party deals, yes,” she said. “Registered by the NRL. I have sponsored players, I work with (player) managers.

“I have done nothing wrong and can’t imagine what the problem would be. There’s been no payments other than what I have done through the NRL.

“I have not been spoken to and would happily show them my books, they can have a look at them anytime they like. I’ve got nothing to hide at all.

“Every sponsorship I have had has been registered with the NRL and approved by them.

“It’s a third-party sponsorship, it goes straight to the NRL for registration. I have done it voluntarily. Not in a very big way but enough to satisfy my needs.

“I wouldn’t do anything that was illegal, each one has been approved by the NRL.”

It’s believed the NRL is looking into the woman’s relationship with the club.

“I get quite a lot out of it, actually,” the woman said. “I have been sponsoring Manly for years and years and get an awful lot out of sponsoring them.”

Pressed on exactly what she does get in return, the woman said: “I’m not going to have you printing that in the papers, thank you very much. But I get plenty.

“I sponsored Kieran Foran before. I became great friends with him, I’m still great friends with him. I see him all the time. I had Kieran for three years.

“I form relationships with the players. I have remained friendly with all of them.”

A Sea Eagles fan since 1969, the woman said she began sponsoring the players several years ago.

“Not many people know I do this, my family do,” she said. “Most people at the club don’t know.”

Just getting more bizarre by the minute but i do hope that the club can come up with a creditable and forthright response reasonably soon .

OK, so I'm reading a lot about the breaches and the fines to the club. Also, that the information came from former disgruntled players.

Here is my question. If either of those players are currently still playing at other clubs, why are they not being fined by the NRL or having their contracts deregistered?

The players clearly knew their actions were illegal if that is what they are currently alleging. Surely action must be taken against the players.

Are you Andrew Fifita?

 

[Spartan Eagle]

And Toggy has a smile from ear to ear, he’d be fair dinkim jizzing in his pants tonight.

He’s been after us ever since taking the job on.

This is music to his ears.

Yes and no doubt Kate Mclitfark is hot wet and moist tonight.

 

[MadMarcus]

Are you Andrew Fifita?

All this time hiding out with my clever alias and you finally got me.

I was going to go with MadAndrew but I thought it'd be too obvious...

 

[manly al]

From what I have read its for 5 years not including 2017. So basically 2012-2016

Thanks for that . Just trying to think who could have been allegedly receiving additional payments in 2016 , when the ' usual suspects' would have already departed the Manly scene . Perplexing [ well at least for me ]

 

[1969]

Wow what a crock of shi-t!! All of a sudden everyone jumps the band wagon to do something about the TPA's because of Manly's alleged indiscretions. It's so furkin ironic that the Rugby League Players Association
has just now made a statement to agree to review the system... when in fact their leader and spokesman Saint furkin Maloney publicly blurted out that the Riff were arranging his TPA.. Nothing was said and the matter swept under the carpet. Nice.

This deserves its own thread, Spartan?

 

[manly al]

Nate Myles?

Now we have definitely got problems if it involved one of our former elites.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Well the Penns presided over this mess and the appointment of Kelly. Remember the Coco Joy debacle as well ? Just means they need to dig into their pockets deeper now to fix it. No point crying poor and whining about the damage to the brand when it happens on your watch.

Yes, ZtH was gunning for Perry from early on in his tenure, after ‘Good Sortgate’.

Silver lining time: sounds like Neil Bare could be gone. Numerous former club employees will rejoice.

 

[Mango]

The NRL has nothing, they're just trying to recoup something back on their flawed drawn out investigation..
Hate to think of the cost of all that?
Let's just assume $1M nice round figure.
All they've got on us a is a petty cash donation from a passionate pensioner, bless her heart.

 

[Jigzkiller]

From the mail I got today this is far from finished

Hope it's more reliable than your Pearce mail somehow I doubt it.

 

[Kevinward777]

I got some mail this afternoon that we’ve been paying Kevin Ward via a fourth party, not attached to the club. $15 a year since 1988. The sum total of $450 owed to Kevin was handed over in a brown Red Rooster paper bag out in the Brookie carpark by Phil Blake. Apparently Phil has been operating for the club in an undercover capacity since 11 months prior to Bozo giving him the flick. Cliff Lyons has been approached for a comment, apparently he’s under investigation for taking a couple of packets of Winfield Reds as an undeclared signing bonus when he came across from Norths

I wish to make a citizens arrest on Todd Greenberg!

Wear your gloves

I hope we

The player managers must be complicit and should also be deregistered. Gotta feeling this volcano is about to erupt.

That smug smile of TG really says it all, he is going to anything he can to destroy us, this photo just annoys me even more, he knows he is getting away with showing his favouritism to some teams over others.

Love to see Greenturd taken down by a 81 year old Nana from Brookie.

The impact all this, along with the match fixing rubbish, has on our club financially cannot be understated.

A positive as mentioned in the article is that Lottoland are sticking by the club.
