Message: [QUOTE="Kaz, post: 2419770, member: 1843"] The next time Gold Coast boss Michael Searle rings the NRL for a cash advance, he might be in for a rude shock. The NRL is sick of lending Searle money annually and then watching his mid-season chequebook raids on clubs for some of the biggest names in the game. The NRL is basically aiding and abetting the Titans to do the very thing the independent commission is trying to stamp out - the mid-season transfers that cause fans so much heartache. This is the same club that owes about $20 million to the Commonwealth Bank and at least two other financial lenders. The same club that regularly needs NRL advances to ease cash-flow problems and to pay their players. "Good luck next time they ask," one senior official said last night.
