It’s in the name…Mutual.You'll argue this until you're blue in the face round here Boon...
I got the same thing from a recruitment guy at another club - Twice.
It's easy to assume a Mutual Option is for both parties to agree, It's not
- It's either party can agree.
Both Parties agreeing is called a contract extension.
Even the NRL wording old mate referenced above....
Club option is black and white,
Player Option is Black and White
Mutual Option is 'Discussed by both parties' (Grey at best)...
I heard one of the Journos on 360 even reference it the other night,
"It's a mutual option, So it depends if one of the Parties take it up"
They BOTH have to agree. If one party says no, the deal is off.
