Message: [QUOTE="Morkel, post: 3478097, member: 8215"] You're basing the credibility of the organisation on: * The people who were happy to overlook confirmed financial fraud because the integrity of the competition is less important than keeping some star players in the game (who happened to be cheating for years). * Same with the club, who were not only complicit, but instigators. But they need a team in Melbourne for marketing reasons, so all good? * Somehow found that the Sharks were perfectly compliant in 2016, despite having been found to have been paying players outside the salary cap between 2015 - 2017. So they were still paying players outside the cap in 2016, however it was an amount that would put them over the cap. Which is completely logical - they paid players outside the cap, despite the fact that had they paid them through legit means they would still have been under the cap anyway... * When the refs allowed a seemingly illegal captains challenge, resulting in a game-changing penalty, the NRL doubled-down and came up with a semi-coherent excuse as to why the challenge was allowed, using rulings and terminology that few people had heard of. It was further compounded by the fact that, had the video ref checked properly, they would have found a Cowboys player off-side from the kick off so even if the challenge was allowed, it should have been denied then and there. Does this sound like an administration that is credible? Or does it sound like a bunch of self-interested fuckwits who care more about covering their own arses, than they do about running a fair and balanced competition where all the teams have equal opportunity and the best team wins?
