A second Brisbane team would be terrific and being the anti Broncos team would make them very popular right throughout the NRL.
A second Brisbane team? Tell him he's dreaming
Its likely the 4 points that were suspended will be deducted as I think Greenberg will feel the need to throw the news limited hyenas something. But there just hasn’t been any evidence produced in all of this media driven campaign to suggest Parra have come close to entering the relms of Melbourne 07-10.
Hiding to nothing: Pity the NRL Integrity Unit
what about self defence or protecting the woman from herself as was Inglis defence as I recall? SKD and El Masri’s cases have shown that it isn’t right for us to jump to conclusions of guilt. “There is never reason ever to touch a woman”. Thats just a bizarro statement you will admit. I mean what about to procreate?

As an Eels fan if the Eels cheated the cap (it remains to be seen) I am proud of the board.
We need to keep cheating and just sort out the in fighting and leaks. When Melbourne won in 2011 I decided yep, thats what you need to do – it is totally worth it. It will be worth having all our points taken this year to have an awesome team for a few years. Then hopefully keep restocking with top quality players.
Thats the main reason I don’t want any independent NRL appointed officials on the board – they will hamstring any future efforts to cheat. No thanks.
Melbourne, Roosters, Broncos, Rabbits, Bulldogs…Parramatta. Its good company…. Winning (hopefully).
An Eels fan's plea to the NRL
He looked disinterested in his college ‘career’ let alone the olympics. This guys eyes have been on the NBA for a few years now and fair enough.
Ben Simmons’ decision sucks, but it’s for the best
The notional value solves the main problem with the cap. That is eliminates suspicion, manipulation and confusion.
You could “let the market decide” and then declare the individual contracts (reported where anyone can just go do the calculations as with NBA and NFL) except that, as has been shown in the past, those contract can just be falsified.
The NRL can't afford to play the man over the 'Parra Papers'
Its easy Pete, you establish the value each year by ranking the top 400 playing from 1 to 400. JT is worth $1.2m and minimum wage is $100k. Each club must have 25 players on their list.
Ranking the players would be formalised by a committee each year. But the public would have a say – there are numerous top 100 lists each year. That would be easy. I am not saying there would not be arguments about the values, but thats just part of the fun. The system would solve the biggest problems with the Salary Cap that is cheating, lack of transparency and confusion.
Build in some exemptions such as loyalty discounts etc again publish these on a website
As for my point 5 I would add that the actual amount that players are paid should be published so they are public knowledge in the same way NBA & NFL contracts are published. If clubs are overspending the members can vote about it or the club can just go broke.

1. Assign each player a notional value – starting with best player Thurston worth 1.2 mill (for example);
2. Publish list on NRL.com;
3. Set cap at whatever – say $9 mill;
4. Team top 20 players must be under the cap based on notional value;
5. It doesn’t matter what the player is actually paid.

One thing that would possibly make relocation of Sydney teams more acceptable to the fans is the creation of a Sydney (NSW) conference and a National conference (made up of the rest). The Sydney teams that relocate remain part of the Sydney (NSW) conference.
The Sydney Roosters are the most logical team for relocation
