@ said:@ said:@ said:Silly question perhaps … would Nike's payment to Teddy be classed as a TPA ?
No Club gear..Players are allowed to use their own intellectual property to earn whatever they can outside of the Salary Cap…
This is the perfect example of how Non-Club affiliated Third Party Agreement should work..
This Nike ad and Billy Slaters Powerade and Banana ad are perfect examples of how a TPA should work. Players get the ad because of who they are not what team they play for.
Most TPA's are dodgy arnd players only get because they play for a certain team. The NRL should only register TPA's like the Teddy Nike ad and the Slaters ads the rest should be ruled invalid (the NRL don't have the guts to do it as the clubs that rort TPA's (eg Broncos, Chooks, Cowboys etc)would have a massive sulk).
How do you know these adds were not organised through the clubs? Id say its very possible that they were. Most people are not trustworthy.
