Of course Cronulla are all good. Can't ruin Todd's comp when the finals are on the menu. All the 'allowed to cheat the cap' teams are ready to play.
Just imagine though if it were Manly caught cheating on the eve of the finals. The boiled-egghead would sink the boot in.
Corrupt and scandalous competition. I really do think the cheating is at the highest level. It's not the clubs. It's the NRL itself.
This kind of stuff is probably happening throughout the comp as it's a product not a game. A little cut and paste from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2007_NBA_betting_scandal
On June 11, 2008, Donaghy alleged in a statement through his lawyers that several series in the NBA Playoffs had been improperly refereed according to the NBA's instructions. He alluded specifically to a playoff game where "personal fouls [resulting in obviously injured players] were ignored even when they occurred in full view of the referees" because "it was in the NBA's interest to add another game to the series."[14] The game referred to was widely believed to be Game 6 of the 2002 Western Conference Finals between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Sacramento Kings, in which the Lakers shot 27 free throws in the fourth quarter.[15]
