I agree, they won't get near the storm.

Rule breaking scumTopper wrote:GWS did not breach the salary cap. The only thing they did was give a potential recruit's father a job within the club to help the son make a decision in their favour. Sneaky and underhanded, but legal. Like a number of thing clubs in both the AFL and the NRL have done in the past.

James Maloney's Sydney Roosters deal exposes NRL flaw

NEW Zealand Warriors star James Maloney yesterday signed with the Sydney Roosters for 2013 - a whopping 460 days before he pulls on a tricolours jumper.
James Maloney, 25, has not broken any rules - but yesterday's announcement is the latest in a long line of similar player defections and pre- or mid-season signings.
The worrying trend should be on the agenda of today's NRL annual conference, attended by the game's top officials and the incoming independent commission.
Players, and coaches, agreeing to leave teams before their contracts have finished remains a source of frustration for fans, clubs and sponsors since the NRL's anti-tampering deadlines were scrapped several seasons ago.
Also last week, Wigan's Thomas Leuluai signed with New Zealand Warriors for 2013 - a staggering 470 days before he can play for them .
And earlier this year, Bulldog Jamal Idris joined Gold Coast 325 days before he plays an official game for the Titans.
Fans flooded websites yesterday fuming about players signing new deals for 2013 when still in 2011

Hahaha, seriously. Stupid throwball fans like yourself cheer for the Storm in the pathetic hope they may have some impact in Victoria. You lot even turn a blind eye to $11 million annually being ripped out of the NRL/clubs coffers by News Ltd to prop up the cheating scumbag Storm. All of course whilst your own clubs continue to struggle financially. Talk about ********.Raiderdave wrote:they were punished .... massivley punished
their fans have never been more galvanised with their team .... the NRL upheld the integrity of the competition by doing what they did
there are no exceptions to our rules ... even our only expansion side must play by the rules
unlike the AFL
they turn a blind eye to their own rules where their expansion clubs are concerned
it stinks
it stinks bad .........
