The Courier mail is reporting that Vlandys has worked out a deal with the PNG Government where Australian players / staff going to the club won't pay any tax. the CM referred to it as the 'Danger Money' deal.
that effectively means the PNG club effectively have a 45% higher salary cap than the...
who knows when it comes to the NRL. maybe they're still pretending that the salary cap is the great evener of the comp
so far all clubs that had players stood down under the no fault stand down policy have received cap relief
IIRC, it was also reported that in the event Mam receives a lengthy...
@Redfern_1980 who is your pick for Souths captain next year given Cam Murray is out to start the year with a long term injury.
I read a report saying Latrell Mitchell could be considered
I'm not ready to give up on Hetherington yet, as long as he is prepared to buy in and play bench.
Take the 500k we have free in our cap, add the likely cap relief we'll get for Mam's lengthy suspension and we should have enough for Hunt anyway... If we don't Hunt is asking too much
Badel is reporting that this incident could cost Mam around $500k.
Rehab bill is $100k
Repairs to both vehicles (his + uber)
Fines from both the Broncos and the NRL
It's not mentioned in the article, but a good chance he'd have to pay compensation to the other parties (no doubt he'll settle if...

Not all players are due back.
Several players are in the rep squad and can't come back until about Jan.
I also believe there is a clause in the EBA that gives players who have been in the NRL over a decade, an extra couple of weeks off.
If you guys can you should really read Robert Craddock's article about day one.
I'm not sure how much I'm allowed to post, but it gives us a good idea of what's ahead for the team ... and it's beautiful...
Good depth signing ... May even be able to force his way onto the bench.
The biggest benefit will be his leadership on the training paddock and off the field
Also just a quick comment on the assumption that Reynolds will retire at the end of 2025.
That's not a certainty yet. He has said he's not sure if he wants to go around again.
If he decides to go around again, we should definitely offer him a new deal. He'd be much better to mentor Black...
I would have loved to have kept him, and I think the club would have also.
The problem was the reported 850k a year the Phins offered him. I'm not sure any centre is worth that
