Message: [QUOTE="Financeguy, post: 2578466, member: 8280"] [b]Re: Darren Lockyer urges the NRL to show AFL convert Karmichael Hunt the money[/b] I agree, they shouldnt hold the NRL to ransom but I honestly would not be against the NRL saying to all 16 clubs have 250k a year to contribute towards a salary for a player(s) from another code. This would be funded by the NRL and given to all clubs. Its up the clubs if they want to use it. In Brisbanes case they could offer Hunt 800k a year and 550k would be under the cap. If he signs for 3 years they get that benefit for 3 years, after than he is back to being a standard NRL player. There are no doubt flaws and i'm not advocating the Broncos get special treatment, i think all clubs should be allowed to pillage the other codes where appropriate, just like the other codes are supported to do against the NRL. I was all in favour of Folau going to the Eels even though he left the Broncos to switch codes, just like Sailor, Tuqiri and Hunt. We have been burnt more than any other club. Surely if someone like Jarrod Croker got pinched by the ARU/Brumbies for 2 years because Canberra just couldnt match the offer at the time you would like some support in the future to get him back? I guess i just want to see the best players possible playing NRL, regardless of what club. I dont watch AFL or Rugby so its a shame i probably will never see Folau play again and after this year probably never see SBW play again either. [/QUOTE]
