June 30 Deadline

[AndWeDon'tCare]

The Knights blocked a Manly bid to land Jack Hetherington
Hetherington has been told he can leave the Knights at the end of the season but Manly were hoping to get their hands on him earlier than that as they looked to compensate for the loss of Taniela Paseska, Nathan Brown and Haumole Olakau’atu, all of whom are sidelined with injury.

However, it is understood the Knights rejected the approach as they look to keep their top-eight hopes alive.
in the tele

That's a complete load of garbage by the Telegraph, there was NO bid/approach at all.

An updated list was circulated by all clubs last week of players, the update contained players who've been informed that their services wouldn't be required beyond 2025.

A query was raised on players "available", for immediate release, sent to all clubs by 6-8 clubs, including Manly.

That's the extent of the "bid".

Fascinated to know how all that works AWDC? Does it all go through the NRL head office? Is there someone who orchestrates it all?

I've often wondered how so many cubs can get so many ducks in a row all on the same weekend.

The NRL are only involved at the time in which the contract is required to be registered or when both clubs come to agreement on the player swap/exchange.

Prior to the above, player managers and clubs attend to a majority of all discussions unless the discussions require an NRLPA/NRL clarification on the players contractual position with "X" club.

No player can be forced to engage in a release unless it is a mutual release or the club "pays out" a contract which would be ludicrous as it included in the cap adjustment/assessment at the end of the year and you may be in breach if you haven't accounted for said payments/terminations in the appropriate manner.

It's been a busy 72 hours in our office with movements and queries flying in thick and fast on contractual obligations and commitments.

Thanks AWDC. Must have been huge!

@AndWeDon'tCare anyone potentially in the Manly christmas in July stocking?

 

[Under the Sticks]

So Da Silva signs with the Sqeels.

Not too upset we aren’t buying our 5th hooker

[Bomb Voyage]

Not looking good to bring someone in pre June 30 🙁

We have Paul Bryan🙁

 

[XV-1]

Strongly suspect we have no news coming for 30 June. What we currently got.......that’s what we've got.

Wouldn't mind being surprised with some good news, but......

U r 100% right.

Although Cartwright and Matterson have their hands up saying pick me, pick me.

Both players are what Seibold sees in a forward - 30 or over, were good 5-7 years ago but are now schiit, but he doesn't have to try and coach them.

Sign them up Seibs

Sign them

Cartwright quit the Eels for St.Mary’s in the Ron Massey Cup a couple of weeks ago ,so he won’t want a downgrade in coaching

If we have missed out on Da Silva and are offloading J Arthur then something must be lined up.

Paul Bryan

 

[Cochrane]

What was the benefit of bringing Paul Bryan in pre June 30, what did I miss?

 

[The Wheel]

Well still a day to go - it would be nice for our media department/manager to provide some insight tomorrow on what is going on

I doubt the club would advertise their interest anymore than media reports like Da Silva. At least not until someone signs anyway, if anyone signs.

First and foremost, this is a footy forum nothing else. Everytime JA gets mentioned he always get bagged with Rainbow gate or his religion, everyone has the right to their opinon, thats fine but to keep going on about it gets tedious and Nauseous. its like to constant bagging of the players, the coach and the CEO, again it gets tedious and nauseous, yes I have bagged them out a bit but not to the extent of some of you guys. But like someone else said before, there is 16 others teams out there if you dont like what you are seeing, FO and go follow them. I have followed this club all my life and I will with follow them with until last breath, through the good times and the bad times I will stick solid. So I am out of here, enough is enough, I can see why poor Ryan doesnt come on here much anymore, its not good for your mental health, it never used to be like that but all the best Woodsie, nothing but respect for you, MFB, Darren, The Wheel, Maxta, Jethro and Master Globiwan, Se8 , Kiwi Eagle and some others that I cant remember right now but not you Bozo, all you do is whinge and wait for someone to say something you dont like so you can pick them apart. I wonder if you are Really a Manly supporter at times, so all the best ,Im out of here, yeah I am just a sensitive P...ck

Just use the ignore button, it works wonders for the sanity. I haven't looked back.
