So if a club only has one or two people who know the whole picture, and they are looked after, then it's impossible for them to be caught. The fact that Easts have never been "caught" doesn't mean anything. But every fan can see their squad and do simple maths and see that it comes nowhere near fitting under the so-called salary cap.

    Why are third party deals even allowed is a question that needs answering by the NRL who claim the salary cap "evens" the playing field..
    Make ALL third parties agreements public so at least fans know the true value of their roster verses every clubs roster but of course that will expose the salary "cap" as a badly flawed system.
    It will also make losing to some teams less hurtful when fans know their opposition roster is being paid millions more hence attracting the best talent.
    While third party agreements are allowed clubs with access to rich third party deals will almost always reign supreme.

It's the same "journalist" who, just a few weeks ago presented a scoop of a story about Latrell Mitchell not wanting to play State of Origin anymore. A little judicious digging by Gould and others revealed the story to be a complete fabrication by that "journalist!" He greatly reminds me of the member of the British intelligence community, during the "Spycatcher" trial, who, when accused of lying, said he wasn't lying - he was just being economical with the truth!

    Knight's do just as well without him, should spend that money elsewhere. Knights could be a top 4 team consistently. Imagine having your dad come in and snitch on the club when his already on unreal money. When Ponga is not playing the chemistry the knights have is incredible. Don't get me wrong he is a great player but not worth that money and not made for the knights. Anyway please investigate the Roosters, especially with them about to sign David Fifita. Ponga would suit a team like Melbourne where the playmakers run thru the centre ready for an offload but his gonna have to halve his wage and we all know Ponga loves the $$$ more then footy.
