Watmough insurance claim rejected

[Chip and Chase]

And to think Choc deceived Parra with the most devilish of disguises, they had no idea who he was - here's how it went down

Steve "Not So" Sharp : "Your name seems familiar, you're not that Anthony Watmough [pron - what mo] from our arch enemy the Manly Sea Eagles are you ?? You know that busted up warrior who is running on one leg and would never be seen dead in a Parra jersey"

Choc : "No way, I'm Anthony Watmough [pron - wat mao], young, fit, up and comer, ready to deliver for the mighty Blue and Golds. Do I look like that other old guy from Manly ?"

Steve "Not So" Sharp: " Yeh, you're right, no wrinkles there. Ok sign here. Welcome aboard. By the way you don't know any good 5/8's do you ?"

Anthony Watmough and Parramatta Eels headed for $1.2 million legal showdown over injury payout
OCTOBER 7, 201610:44AM

ANTHONY Watmough and the Parramatta Eels are headed for a $1.2 million legal showdown, with the former Test forward prepared to return to pre-season training in order to receive his promised career-ending injury payout.

Watmough was in shock this week when he discovered Parramatta is attempting to operate outside the Collective Bargaining Agreement by offering him a reduced figure, ‘significantly less’ than the value of his $1.2 million contract.

Watmough was forced into premature retirement this season with a debilitating knee injury, just 12 months into his four-year deal, worth around $750,000 a season, with the Eels.

Go get 'em Choc

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Go get 'em Choc

Just pay him out of the cap, and then everyone's happy ( except them).

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

He did a lot for Manly, so I think Manly should offer to pay his legal costs to sue the Eels.

 

[swoop]

No, let him turn up at their training so his 2016 and 2017 payments are included in their cap.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

If he does, I think they have no choice.
Go choc! (I feel much better cheering for the bloke than deriding him)

 

[MadMarcus]

The NRL would probably count that against our cap, but exempt any payments Parra has to make no matter what happens.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Yes, sad but true

 

[Blowfly]

What would his good mate say? Karma! Suffer in your jocks Choc! Jog on pal. No sympathy from me I'm afraid

 

[Mal Cochrane]

he had an option on the last year...how does he expect to be paid that when he cant fulfil his option.

 

[Shoe1]

He needs to front up in a tracksuit at preseason 2018 and do a few stretches, star jumps etc then give his bsb and account details to parra.

Ah but he can...
Just play on one leg then choc can become hop

 

[ManlyTragic]

That article is sensational.
It made my day!
Headline should have been "from hero to zero"

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

No, let him turn up at their training so his 2016 and 2017 payments are included in their cap.

Yes, yes & YES!!!

took the words right out of my mouth ...

Is that rude? It sounds rude.

 

[wedgetail eagle]

Canibus ite domum.

Eels Over the cap and playing for no points again. Sweet.
