If Parra can't get him because of the cap, I know a few players they can let go of for a start to help fit him in.
As for the comment about being a hypocrite, well yeah, you may have a point if it was happening all the time for certain clubs year after year, but it isn't and if something does happen, Parramattas cap for the following year would be lower, how is that the same as the Vfl giving out millions to these non lol footy states'year after year after year after year?
Schubert thinks Falou is worth 400k minimum, when he was worth that money when he left the game flying high. It should not matter what he is worth, if he wants to play for the Eels and take a salary cut for the first year so be it. The ARLC should not be allowed to stop a player from signing for less money and having the Deal back ended. The Dragons did it why not Parra, if the ARLC block this then Parra need to ask the question why its okay for other clubs and not us.
This Thread is another desperate attempt by some AFL fans on this site to try and take focus of how pathetic the AFL commission has become.....![]()
Sorry guys Parra have not done anything wrong and are just asking questions of the ARLC in full view of the public, unlike the Crows who are trying every dirty tactic in the book to get a lighter sentence...after they have been busted....
