I don't think so tbh.. the clauses weren't reported straight away at wests tigers either, I think they came out like almost 12 months after didn't they?

Cant really recall to be honest, id say your prob right though. It doesnt make sense to ke to have clauses in for us but not for a whole new club in another country. Maybe in time it will come out he does.

I'm just calling a spade a spade. If he had excelled this year, I would have been his biggest supporter, especially because of how many games my family have been to.

The reality is his stats for a $1.2m player are really poor, and that can't be denied.

I wish him the best, but as I said before, I believe he is highly overrated and can't lead a team.

I'm not the only person that thinks this. I hope he improves my perception this weekend with a win.

Did last weeks win improve your perception?

Quick question though? Our board is unstable, our club is unsuccessfull. 100% so i totally get wanting the clauses. But P.N.G are a whole new team who havnt even competed yet, with no real boardroom right now. Does he have clauses in his deal with them incase he or his family hate living there and its not working out. No. Why not. Why clauses in his contract for us who are established, allowing him to play where his family is established and are much more stable than a team that doesnt really exist yet. Because the new franchise was always the end goal and we were being used as a stop over lounge. Thats why he wanted clauses every year after the second one. They knew P.N.G was coming but used the money we were givong him as insurance he would be financially looked after for upto 5 years if the P.N.G gig was put off. Otherwisehe he would have put clauses into the P.N.G contract like he did with us. Seeing as how weve had more success than the P.N.G team and we are an established team. When i asked myself the question about him having the clauses in our contract and not the P.N.G contract i realised hes a germ. I hope his family hate living up there and he is miserable. All he is good at doing is talking garbage. Sooner the germ is gone the better.

It's money. Simple as that. Don't begrudge him for taking it

It's beyond belief that the NRL has allowed this to happen. No TPA's affiliated with the PNG franchise should be allowed to commence until he has started playing for them (i.e. November 1 2027.)

Have to say im not keen on it from the club and fan perspective however I suppose this is just a more extreme example of the TPA being independent of club and up to player and manager. Thats always been the mantra of the NRL and let's face it, clubs have been whacked for getting involved in TPA's.

Having said that now example has been set, they cant complain when, let's say I like scotch eggs (and I do) and I organise a TPA promoting scotch eggs in UK with a bit of Oz promotion as well, whilst I play with whatever NRL club, it's independent of the club and its a private commercial arrangement between player - manager- promoter.

Yeah but this is tied into PNG, it's blatantly obvious that he would not be doing promotional shit for Pepsi in PNG if they weren't coming into the comp. It's a joke it's been allowed.
