Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3469065, member: 1899"] The majority of it, I did make an error. It wasn't the day of, it was the day before. Simon Scanlan corroborated this when he issued his statement in response to the Mole's article. The Broncos claimed they were cleared but the salary cap auditor denied those claims a few days later. The Broncos were never publically cleared by the NRL. It all comes down to whether it was ethically the right thing for the Broncos to sign a 17-year old without accredited representation. Legally they may have been within their rights but in the court of public opinion it doesn't reflect well on the club to pressure a young man like that. The only point the Broncos disputed was that this all came to a head in November. Scanlan claimed it happened in June when Oloapu secured a new manager and asked for a substantial upgrade to his contract. That's different than they lied to me about being in the Top 30 and they were going to ruin my career by making me into something I'm not. I gave them my word and they gave me a chicken sandwich.
