Isaiah Papali’i #265

[KH1988]

No person can be forced to



Papalli doesn't want to be at wests its obvious. Why not just let it go and use the coin for player's who want to wear the jumper. This needs to be sorted tomorrow, letting it drag on is making the club look stupid as its very negative publicity

At least some of the Bulldogs troll accounts are funny - the Eels ones lack flair

Good to see Clint Newton from the RLPA telling Papali'i to honour his contract.

Wonder if nrl or clubs said something to them

 

[Chicken_Faced_Killa]

Thank you Clint Newton for coming out strongly and publicly with this. Without the support of the RLPA the chances of a release are zero unless we agree.

 

[jrtiger]

Clint Newton is nothing more than a puppet but his statement holds weight. contract's a contract and both parties signed it in good faith. see you in January, Ice.

Can't be forced but can be forced contractually to sit out 3 seasons.

Overwhelming amount of fans would prefer this option.

Methadone is a start, get off it if you can. I told you this morning, I’m here to help

Pawwa you just lost your best, and F$#&ed the rest. 🖕

If Wests Tigers make him sit out 3 years his value will decline rapidly.
I'd be playing hardball or the circus will just continue.
There was once a man who said "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results" by all accounts he was a pretty smart bloke.

 

[Newtown]

Gutherson was on Big Sports Breakfast this morning and they asked him about IP and if he was going to flip on his Tigers contract.

Gutherson said he would love for him to stay at Pawwa but he expected IP to honour his contract for next year with us.

Also mentioned that IP was really focused on finishing off the season as strong as he could. You can't blame IP for not wanting to talk about next season when he and his mates from Pawwa are heading towards finals in THIS season, says to me he is a stand up guy.

If he goes to the warriors then mayby a swap with Josh Curran or Tohu Harris

Don't entertain the thought. Most are sick of Wests tigers being bufoons.

ONly weeks ago he was saying he wanted to stay in SYDNEY with Parramatta. This guy is looking more like a clown.

 

[Stevec]

The law of contracts is simple all you need is
-an offer
-an acceptance of that offer
- consideration meaning $ specified
So he's contracted and if he didn't honour it he is in breach of contract and could be sued for damages .The problem being how do you calculate damages .Could be difficult to put a figure on
Then if player doesn't put in or plays half hearted what do you do ?
It seems that only nrl have power to enforce because they can have rules that are above and separate to law .like making player sit out 1 season
They can go elsewhere after that years 2 and 3 but no pay for the year they sit out . The Nrl always talk about integrity so show they mean it !

Go to your bank who you have a mortgage with that you're not going to honour the contract because you can't be forced to. Let me know how you go.

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

A round of applause for our meat head captain Tamou for suggesting he does whatever he wants.

Can't wait for that rockhead to piss off.

 

[rex2ce]

What the hell was Tamou just doing was on the news saying he could understand IP not wanting to come to the Tigers. What a bloody moron mentioned the Madge thing who cares, if he cared so much about Madge he should have inserted a Madge clause. Im getting sick of this muppet now shut ya trap get rolled week 1 of the finals seeya on Nov 1st to claim your locker key.

I just saw it also, what’s it got to do with Tamou, not contracted here next year, fine him and tell him to shut his trap.
If IP tries the mental health card like Moses , tell him we‘ll get him the best help available, don’t let him renege

As much as i want Papalli to be at our club next season .. but your right mate .. dragging this out will only get ugly for the club and make us look silly .. cause in the long run all he and his manage have to do is call in the "mental health 2 card trick" and we'll have to let him go .. and by then its probably too late for us to find another player to come to the club with the money we would have spent on Papalli .. so wear the pain now .. instead of 5 months on down the track when its gonna be too late to get another player. (take the pain for gain ;-))

NRL 360 . BUZZ SAYING NRL MUST ENFORCE PLAYERS LIVING UP TO CONTRACTS BUT
KENT SAYING NRL CANT ENFORCE ANYTHING .
The general opinion is that tigers must stand their ground or lose credibility
I agree tigers must stand firm " a deal is a deal "

There's no where to spend the money to get close to what we'd be giving away.
No other club would do it....

Remember when Parra wouldn't let a reserve grade Prop out early - And he hadn't even played yet.
We've built around him.... It's not Joe Blow we're letting out.

No budge - No move on....

And we won't look silly if we let yet another player renege on a legally-binding contract on top of Moses, Matterson, Cleary and Aloiai? We hoild all the aces in our hand but you want to fold to a bloke whose got a pair of twos.
There is no card he can play, mental health or otherwise, that gets him out of this contract.
