NRL Round 7 Team Lists Late Mail: Dolphins get exemption plus Wayne now in doubt, star Rooster out
The Dolphins have again been given permission by the NRL to go outside their top 30 in order to field a team, as coach…
The Wests Tigers will reportedly have their $750,000 salary cap fine halved and CEO Justin Pascoe will be welcomed back to the game in June.
The NRL will on Friday hand down their final ruling on the Tigers’ punishment for failing to declare an ambassadorial role offered to Robbie Farah.
The Sydney Morning Herald reports the NRL will suspend half of their fine, Pascoe will be handed a six-month ban which will end on June 19 and their $639,000 salary cap penalty will be spread across the 2019 and 2020 seasons.
Pascoe and the club argued that he had done nothing wrong owing to the fact the offer was made as Farah exited the club to South Sydney in 2016 and he never agreed to the deal.
His ban will be back-dated to December 19, meaning he will be back at the club’s Concord headquarters on June 19 following the mid-season representative round break.
The NRL’s decision to apply the salary cap penalty across the 2019 and 2020 seasons will ensure the joint venture does not having to shed players and ensures the recent signing of winger Robert Jennings will be rubber-stamped.
