Hypothetical: player involvement

The would have to be de-registered. And I would hope that ESL would support the NRL in that cheats have no place in the game and they would refuse to register them as well. Would also hope that Union and AFL wouldn't want to be tainted by such cheats in their ranks and would refuse to pick them up either.

[icon_lol1. Still better than NSW!
Oh and I'd be perfectly happy with Friend at hooker to be honest. Obviously not as good as Smith, but still a very capable player.
IMO there is no doubt that the players and player managers would have known everything. The players sign off on the NRL contract that is then lodged with them (NRL), which declares their salary and payments. They are also in receipt of the 2nd contract (kept in the 2nd office) which details the actual amount that they are going to be paid, which is what they had agreed to accept when they agreed to resign.
Clearly, Waldron, the player and the manager would have been involved in direct discussions about this is what we will pay you, but this is what we declare on the formal NRL contract and this is what will be paid as extras in this way, we are talking huge amounts of monies here as individual "overs", of course they were a party to it all and knew exactly what was unfolding.
They then recieve the balance (2nd set) of payments via third parties, which annually clearly exceed what they had signed off on in the NRL contract. I don't don't this is rampant throughout the NRL.
IMO some players have to be made examples of to also make them think twice.

you guys that are accusing the players are all making big assumptions. firstly, youre assuming that these footy players with hundreds of thousands of dollars in the bank keep a keen eye on their bank accounts. i dont even keep a keen eye on my bank account unless i know i must be starting to run low, and i dont have anywhere near hundreds of thousands of dollars in there.
secondly, players have managers. the only reason they have managers is to do their contract stuff. look at the whole civoniceva thing - people on here were claiming that he was 'left in the dark' by his manager as to what was going on, but now all of a sudden since its melbourne players you all say that as a player you would HAVE to know whats gonig on? lolz.
thirdly, if the players knew about it, you can be damn sure that the players that melbourne let go after 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 wouldve blown the whistle on the whole thing years ago.
