Message: [QUOTE="Kooly87, post: 3094214, member: 9326"] Of course they did. The Federal Government does exactly the same thing when it suits them. That's the way things work in some foreign countries. I honestly think it's very unlikely that they personally paid his legal bill though. Firstly, Fifita should comfortably have access to that kind of cash himself. Secondly, knowing the media is all over it and knowing how leaky the whole thing has the potential to be both in Bali and back here, the risk is just far too great that something will get out and suddenly a small Bali incident becomes a full blow salary cap investigation. We're a publicly traded company to add to the mix, so pulling off stuff like this with mystery 30k payments is especially difficult without getting caught. Seriously, it's 30k, and it's not like Fifita doesn't have the money. I don't doubt we helped expedite the process behind closed doors and ensured it all ran smoothly and kept Fifita on a very tight leash, he is a teenager in trouble overseas and I don't think that's too unreasonable. I honestly do doubt though that we funded the whole thing directly. It's just stupidly risky with massive consequences if we got caught. [/QUOTE]
