I remember when LM was looking for a new home, all sorts of figures were flying in the media. He eventually signed on at Souths for $600k.
$600k on the table.
Yep
It’s funny how a lot of souths players end up signing for unders after a trip to Rustys farm
Well if you think about it
If a player receives a sum of money from someone he is not playing for, how can it be included in the cap
Eg
A person receives $500,000 on Monday, call it appearance money as a guest to a Farm to talk about cow dung
That person signs a contract on Wednesday to play for souths
Well that Person legitimately earned that money outside of football
Maybe a relative spoke about their knowledge of cow dung
That’s why the salary cap is useless. There are a 101 ways to rort the system. Teams like Souths and the Chooks who have some very wealthy people in their corner have no problems assembling star studded rosters without having cap problems.
Anyway been done this track a million times but we need a new system, like a point system
We have supposedly one of the wealthiest people in our corner also, but we still can’t assemble squat!
Once Sheens was punted Harry went cold
They were mates ..
Where are all our big name signings then?
