Message: [QUOTE="Foordy, post: 2576220, member: 1769"] I have seen this idea posted (possibly in this thread) and i personally think it is a great idea and it gets rid of the round 13 rule, while still giving the players incumbent club a chance to retain its player. Since most contract have a form of a cooling off period, then it is fair for NRL contracts to also have a cooling off period. so what should happen is that after a player signs with an opposing club, he has [B]4 weeks [/B]to reneg (or back flip) and remain with his current club. this is would happen even if a contract is signed after round 13. in this instance a club still has a chance to change the players mind and the speculation would only last 4 weeks as opposed to potentially 6-8 months. this idea would also keep the spirit of what the round 13 rules is trying to acheive. if after 4 weeks the player hasn't changed his mind and reneged on the agreement to go to the opposing club, the NRL then registers the contract and speculation ceases. IMO thats win/win [/QUOTE]
