Pascoe sanctioned by the NRL

Here’s hoping the verdict is delivered as some are suggesting when the commission meets next week.

Our interim CEO stated that NRL had told the club that a decision would be made by the end of the month.

They meet on Thursday

I'm aware of that, that is why I believe an announcement will be made either Thursday afternoon or Friday. I'd say the NRL is just waiting for ARLC approval of the decision.
 
So if the reports are correct on fox now - Cronulla Sharks facing heavy penalties after NRL uncovers multiple salary cap breaches … I give up... They are looking at 500k fine because they clearly breached the salary cap a few times yet the Tigers get a 675k fine plus lose CEO for a so called deal with a player after he finishes playing that is not even signed.. This just blows my minds how the same teams keep cheating and get a slap on the wrist yet we get hammered.. Someone please help me understand what i am missing because it is really pissing me off..

I would hope that its because the breaches by the Sharks only equate to $500k while the alleged Tigers breach is 675K, they are also not fines, they are cap penalties. Tigers currently have a $750K fine on top of the cap penalty.

And they have still been permitted to sign Segeyaro :man_shrugging:t2:

His contract hasn't been registered yet.

On the same day James Segeyaro returned to Cronulla training in the hope of resurrecting his NRL career, it emerged the Papua New Guinea international has been given no guarantee his contract will be registered pending the outcome of the salary cap investigation.> Blockquote
 
From the leaks we have had from the media, the Sharks thing was well planned and was a intentional attempt to rort the system. Apparently they have phone and email records to prove their case.

Now with us there were no mid night meetings,no email trail and no mobile phone trail. It is basically the NRL saying we intentionally rorted the system, and we are saying we unintentionally rorted the system.

There is a massive difference between what the Sharks have done and what we did, so the penalties should reflect it, and it would seem that will not be the case. Hard to have any faith in the NRL

This is a calamity

Bib Sports breakfast interview Dean Richie mentioned that it is not good mail on Pascoe despite a very strong submission from the Tigers . Im gonna lose it.

If there is no trail as mentioned above its probably cause it was a passing / non binding discussion.
 
If that is fact that Pascoe lost his appeal then a court of law is the option to take.Pell found out recently that the law dosent always favour the powerful
 
As expected the leaks are dribbling out of HQ. You would think they would be professional enough to keep everything inside to the offical announcement re our appeal is announced on Thursday, but our fate will be basically known before the announcement. All the usual two bob jurnos will be given the verdict or at least what’s to expect.

Getting very angry and disenchanted with NRL
 
The fact that our appeal will be announced at the same time as the review of player stand downs and the sharks penalty means that it will be an add note in most media stories.

Completely unaccountable
 
I think the fans are going to have to start to scream a bit louder if there any injustices here. Toddy has been talking **over and over and over** about how he likes to take his time to get it right. If he's not spot on with weighing these penalties up, then he needs to go.
 
Just in the last month alone the Integrity of the NRL is in tatters … I have said before if the club want respect they draw the line ... if this week the Pascoe decision goes side ways then straight to court for an injunction to stop the season from starting . The club has made no bones about how good a case they have ..they will look like real losers and fools if they accept anything but Pascoe being reinstated. Hess just stuck his thumb up at the integrity unit with the NRL saying or doing anything...nothing more to say after that capitulation by the NRL . I really hope the club has a real go in this situation,
 
This will probably end up in court if bulldogs is on the money. Can't see the tigers lying down on this one.
 
But what will i watch on Thursday Friday Saturday and Sunday..you can only stomach so much of MAFS..nah actually none at all
 
I feel like this is going to turn out like a child arguing with an adult or a student with a teacher. The Tigers will be a child who has made a valid point, but like any parent/teacher the NRL is going to turn around and justify their decision by saying "because I said so." If this happens or we cop a harsher penalty than the Sharks do then I genuinely hope we take them to court and bend them over a barrel.

Most times the child is just being a brat and wont accept responsibilty for their actions, looking to blames others.

Hopefully the club just accepts the punishment and moves on, give the coach and the players an actual chance of concentrating on winning for a bloody chance. Tantrums wont get the club anywhere.
