Am I the only one who's starting to get really sick of hearing the word "rort"?  It sounds like it's a made up word.

And Storm will be using this word BOUNCEBACKABILITY  ;D


1. The ability to 'bounce back' usually implying a fighting spirit.
2. The ability to come from a losing position and win

Location: Melbourne - is there any place better ?

It is going to get worse before it gets better....

Many rumors will be flying around.. some true,
some not so true, some just utter BS.

Numbers and figures should not be released until they
have all the facts and can account for the so called monies.

The way the salary cap works is very murky with some things
or and some things not - so lets just wait till the end and deal
with the facts. Which I have no doubt will not be easy.


P.S. Am very surprised and disappointed by what has been
said about MGs article being so anti-Storm

I'm not surprised with anything the stupid nuff nuff does or says (he did, after all, plant a big kiss on my hubby one night.....) but was asked by someone close to him (and us) to check out the article.
I'd like to know what his beef is with our club, is he jealous of his brothers success with his 'other' family?  Maybe I'll send RLW an email to that effect - feel free to join me  ;-)
When I want your opinion - I'll give it to you!

Surprised that he was so against Storm.... I have not read the article though
can only go on what has been said on here. :(

Maybe Tigger is onto something there .... jealous of his brothers success and
continued support and friendship within the Storm group. Wonder how he
feels about the article?

Was it because he only won 1 Premiership  to his Brothers 2,and that Storm did not want him because he was a liability and a BIG LIABILITY AT THAT

I still find it very suspicious that the first thing Gallop says about this 'discovering more money' is to shore up not just his general position but the single most criticised part of that position, ie the playing for no points.

I think this 'new finding' is a load of bullshit.

The more they dig the more they will find,because ALL,(and I'm talking about the entire NRL player group here) player contracts are now structured to be 'back ended'.This means that players get some of their salary package WHEN THEY LEAVE,or If something happens to shorten the length of their contract.
As with Cam Smith - The Foxtel contract was not with Storm.It became a problem because they said they would cover any loss IF he lost the job,so Storm didn't pay him $100,000 over the amount on his contract - They promised to cover a loss ?
That's a VERY grey area.Wonder how many other grey areas have be counted as HARD DOLLARS over the?
And the NRL still maintains that there isn't a problem with how the cap is structured,maintained & policed  #-o ](*,)
Are the contracts of ALL the players under the various player agents involved being investigated ?

I'd believe that as Peanut Brain Hadley got an Order of Australia for his (dis)service to rugby league.

I thought MG was a good bloke, but i guess sibling rivalry got the better of him, can't hack it his brother is twice the player he was, so nothing better than bag the club Boofa played for
