Message: [QUOTE="Foordy, post: 2463695, member: 1769"] [b]Re: Eels want to breech salary cap.[/b] I don't blame the ARLC from refusing to allow the Eels to sign Folau for 110k (what they first tried to register him for). The ARLC can not bend the rules for 1 player of 1 club. If they do there is no point having a cap. If Folau and his manager didn't realize that clubs would struggle to fit him under the can at this late stage they are fools. The NRL has done this before with Gasnier. When he came back from european rugby union, the Dragons tried to register him for a small amount and were refused. If the Eels had initially offered Folau the $3 million, 4 year contract then it most likely would have been accepted. If the Eels were allowed to sign Folau for 110k next year and won the premiership, then at this time next year we would be listening to people complaining about the ARLC allowing the Eels to sign Folau for the small contract.
