Phil Gould, Paul Gallen fire off at NRL over investigation into Rabbitohs rookie's debut | Sporting News Australia

Phil Gould has blasted the NRL after an investigation was launched into the first-grade debut of young Rabbitohs players Trent Peoples last weekend.

I reckon the NRL should fine them, deduct all their points then kick them out. Pride of the league - pffft.

The NRL are looking for the wet lettuce leaf that Turdberg used to use in all Souffs infringements.

Why, what's your opinion.
IMO the only reason you should have a top 30 is so players have got something to aim for and the club to pay them top 30 min wage and above.
If you have a spot why should you have restrictions.
If someone is playing horrible he or she gets the sack and someone comes in, you pay a redundancy package.
Same applies for for medical retirement. If your crook, here's your separation payment, bye. Why do you have to apply for it.
Players want no restrictions on their earning capacity aligned with ordinary workers in the community.
Well in the community noone is safe even if your under contract.
Too many rules. If the club or players need help or are good enough to make grade mid season let them do it.
Your going to say that's an unfair system and the big clubs with abuse it well I say it's a job, let people earn a living.
18yrs are old enough to play NRL even if their still at school.
I've opened up a can of worms, you now smash it. 😀

Have to agree with Gus on this one why stifle a young players opportunity to play in the NRL just because they are not in the top 30 or because it is before round 10.

Why round 10, how bloody stupid.

BUT. . . . . . . because it is currently a rule that is stipulated by the NRL it must be applied and Souffs should get fined, have their salary cap cut for the next 2 seasons, get docked 2 competition points for breaking the rules in that round and their CEO must be stood aside for a minimum of 6 months.

Any lesser action taken by the NRL would be a disgrace as Souffs being the pride of the League, they should be setting the example for all other teams and the above outlined punishment for their indiscretion should be the bare minimum applied.

I agree. But at the moment that is not the case. They broke the rules and should be punished for it. We got fined and CeO suspended for breaking rules even though nothing eventuated.
 
I think people are missing the point. It is a stupid rule but at present it is still a rule of the NRL. Souths broke the rules and should be punished. If they don't get punished why can't every team just ignore the rules if they think they are stupid. Puts the NRL in a quandary.

Yeh I get that, rules in money sport should not be broken but ammended.
I just wanted to get your topic rolling because I actually wanted to say that some clubs with millionaires and billionaires behind them always seem to get the rub of the green.
Just a side note.
I was thinking last week when posters were getting the shites with officials...WT are a grass roots team [2 traditional clubs] and when WT are going good the NRL is going good and is healthy. This is not just my opinion but others too.
If this is the case, why is it so hard for us to at least get respect, get more NRL advertising, be promoted more and get the rub of the green.
I get the feeling they always want us to struggle. That's how I feel, us v them
