Are they actually able to register him? If tigers have an option for 2027, then I dont see how dogs could register a contract

Melbourne did it with Lomax. I read that the NRL has this thing called the Gateway where clubs can park a contract until everything is above board and the contract can then be registered. I had never heard of it before the Lomax rubbish. I really don't know why the NRL would allow such a stupid thing.

He is right about TPa's... Laundy has many "arms length" contacts...rort

As much as believe there is a lot of dodgy TPAs I don't believe there is enough money being thrown around in TPAs to give any club other than Melbourne and Brisbane a significant edge in signing players.
Often it is written on here that multiple players at a club are each getting a couple hundred thousand in TPAs (even is suggested about some of our players) but when NRL released TPA figures most clubs didn't have more the about 250k total of TPAs across their whole squad.
If there is blatant rorting happening it would be in non TPA methods. E.g. brown paper bags or jobs for partners.

NRL figures are as rubbery as a set of Chinese tyres….

So no one really knows what bula is going to do , the story was he was going to stay and a deal had been agreed, then he was going to, this is going on and on , the club really needs to know before the season starts
