Farah to SOUTH SYDNEY in 2017..OFFICIAL..

[goldcoast_tiger]

So they are supposed to get to pick and choose what parts of the contract they like to uphold. Are They??
But Farah 's supposed to make it all hunky Dory for the club. They either want him or they don't
If they can't afford to pay what's needed to move him on, well they shouldn't have gone down that track.

Like every single other player ever to leave their club early, they are entitled to continued payments as per the original contract (being topped up) and the salary cap. NOT a lump sum. Simple.

But it's not remotely simple, though, because Farah can say he wants a lump sum to leave and if he doesn't get it he's not going to sign anywhere else. The club can then pay him monthly (or whatever) per his contract until this time next year. The problem being, of course, that following the letter of the contract is categorically not the outcome the club is seeking - which is why it potentially has to negotiate.

100% agree. But he can ask for whatever he wants. Doesnt mean he gets it. As i said, id like nothing more than to accomodate a lump sum if thats what he wants. If the club wants the payment plan, which is exactly what they are entitled to do, then Robbie is exactly entitled to stay and play reggies. I dont think anyone really wants that.

Robbie can also negotiate a lump sum LESS than his entitlement too. That might make the club interested and meet him there.

But to say he is automatically entitled to a lump sum if he moves elsewhere is simply wrong.

He's already said that he won't move unless he gets his money .
It's up to him as to what way it will be, otherwise he can (as you say) play in reserves,
If that's the case , it's bye , bye to using any of the money they want to save. Maybe they should have thought about things a little bit more.
As I said before, Keystone Cops stuff.

He can win Ron Massey player of the year

I don't really believe that the Yanks actually put a man on the Moon either lol.

You would have to play more than once every 5 weeks for that,,

I find it seriously crap that on the eve of our biggest game in 4 years we even talking about it

 

[Pawsandclaws]

Oh, what a surprise. A business doesnt have a spare $600K to pay YOU tomorrow in the form of a top up termination payment. Im keen to know which NRL team or any other business could?

And whats that, the a###holes are prepared to pay your outstanding amount in exactly the same way as they and you have budgetted for if you were staying? The hide of these bastards.

You have got to be joking. He is not staying because they don't want him - now you expect him to cop not getting what they owe him until they can afford it ??Maybe he can subsidse some more players contracts for the club like he did last time until they can afford to pay him.
Hate on Farah all you like but very hard to support the clubs position in this argument.

Yeah trust us Robbie, you've got a contract :laughing: . Sam, do you take Visa, Amex, MasterCard 😱pen_mouth:

 

[Buffalo]

Just go already. Show some dignity, however minute. And the club should never deal with Ayoub again, ever!

Maybe they're getting a loan from Cash Converters to pay for ETs new contract .
Surely JT has some old Australian jumpers that he can hock?
Ohh, sorry, I forgot.

Yeah, can see him suffering a season ending ego injury in the early rounds.

I like ET and wish him no ill, but I hope he has a good manager (apparently Sam always gets a good deal for his clients) who has kept other options open for him.

7 Sports have said that the club is trying to get the clubs that wantFarah to pay the money that he was owed for deferring payment. WTs only want to pay $300,000
They must be in dreamland,
Farah says that his current contract to be negotiated, is for 750, 000
The rest is owed separately.
They don't seem to be too interested in him really going , or are they just dumb to expect him to swallow that.

How does 7 news know the details of the Contract of a player and a Club and the negotiations of the new Club…?

This is all one big chess game involving 3 parties… Let's hope Pascoe calls checkmate soon

I don't get why Robbie cares who pays him as long as he gets his money? This is a standard part of negotiating a release, why does he need to be different?

Has there ever been a bigger carry on from a player leaving a club? Am i the only person who has never heard of a player being paid out a lump sum?

Robbie used to be my favourite player but he has worn his good will out long ago for me.

cant play chess with 3 parties .

Just sayin …

 

[TYGA]

The issue surrounds the back payment of $250k money owed. WT will have to pay $250k + subsidise $350k leaving another club to meet $300k.

 

[vlad]

RF leaving the WTs …

The money comes out of 2017 salary cap - they are topping up what he would have otherwise received here should he stay - why should they pay him now - we haven't done that with any other player where we have had to carry some of payments while they played at another club. In some instances we have been told we have continued to prop up their payments for up to 3 years after they left. So what makes Farah different that he should receive his money prior to it being legally due. Sounds like a load of BS to me.

maybe the club leaked it :laughing:

How is all the stuff on here obtained?

at least not very fairly. Have been notorious cases of helpers up in stands giving hand signals, or ear plugs in long hair - so now live coverage is delayed by half hour with players shielded off. With Farah's manager there will not be a checkmate against RF but a draw is the likely outcome or resignation by WT.

Has there ever been a bigger stuff up by a club trying to shaft a player?? Probably not
