The biggest footy story since John Farragher - or John Ribot's defection to Super League - or even the change of Ribot's name from 'Ribot de Bresac' just to 'Ribot'.
Who was the bloke who left the door to the other room unlocked - and the filing cabinet? Bluey? "Whoops...sorry mate..."
Fair dinkum, this business of 'well orchestrated deception'....really the NRL need to check better. Five years to find it all? Hopeless. Schubert is struggling to count with his fingers these days.
If they had exceeded the cap by what is effectively $340,000 per year (one key player), would they have been docked eight points? Probably not. They have been hit hard. Not counting the points this year is a joke.
Instead now, no team will come forward. 'Thanks for being honest (after five years of crap)....here have this sledgehammer over your head'. Watch for CEO retirements. Mick Watson at the Warriors was the first one..now Waldron.
Just put an asterix next to the Storm in the programme, erase their names from the JJ Giltnan Shield and give two of their best players to the Sharks. 2cm margin on that page please too.
My thought is that we may now find that 15 clubs (ex Sharks) have been doing the same. Then what? Call off the season? Announce Sharks as Premiers now.
Can anyone help but think the Broncos under Bennet were not doing something similar in the early 90's?
Good moment for News Limited to drop involvement in rugby league now. Hardly think a boring Partnership Agreement is helped by this.
The game in Melbourne has been rooted. Everyone loves a winner but not a cheating winner.
Anyone for a footy rape scandal...a public urination...taxi rank biff...poo in a shoe...a domestic violence matter...a pub brawl...a theft...a sex tape scandal...
In the words of Dolf "It may even get a mention on the Footy Show tonight".
