News RLPA vs NRL UPDATE- Civil war set to end

[The DoggFather]

LOL, I did the same. All it did was leave ugly black sticky marks on my jersey, although I did get a lot of people asking me why I did it. It seems that no one in the NRL can come up with an original idea...

I used those permanent laundry markers that mum used to write my name on my hat and jackets, it did the job but faded after about 10 washes.

If they want to get the nrl attention, agree to kicking the ball off at the whistle then all players sit down for 60 seconds .. no one plays at the ball, do it for 60 seconds the first round then have ot compound from there.

No penalties can be given to either side as no one is slowing down the ball in play - as no one has received the ball to begin with.

Nrl hierarchy are a bunch of hillbillies... I'd laugh my arse off at the uproar it would cause.

I want this to happen for the laughs lol

Last time I saw you at the footy the NRL badge was still covered. How long ago did you do that? ‘12? ‘14?

My position on this;
It’s easy to look at a footy player as an overpayed whinger but the reality is, the average NRL career is 50games (about 3-4 season in the top 30) and the average salary is about $300k.
you’re a average NRL player puts their body through the same punishment that the superstars do, but earns less in his career than most of us will in 1/3 of our chosen careers. Once they’re done, they’re broken, purposeless and often have no career prospects.
So while I’m not inclined to believe the RLPA’s bullshit, I don’t begrudge the players getting what they can.
on the other side of the fence, I think we can all agree that PVL is a cûnt, Abdo is a cûnts, cûnt, and the media are lying cûnts. So, I don’t believe a fucking thing any one of them say.

.If I had used permanent markers I might have written something naughty on my jersey to voice my displeasure..

Not sure if this has been reported,but apparently the main issue in all of this is something called the " Hardship "fund ( for retired players) & how much the NRL are willing to stump up compared to what the RLPA want..quite a few in the game believe that Newton is a bit of a glory hound & will drag it on as long he can till they get what they want

Players should get Bet Return credit instead.
That way they can pump money back into the game and keep the sponsors happy....(wink wink)

BREAKING: Rugby league’s civil war set to end after ‘done deal’ between RLPA and NRL


Rugby league’s civil war is set to end, with the RLPA and the NRL agreeing in principle on a new collective bargaining agreement.

It is pending documentation and ratification from the playing group.

The over $1 billion deal will mean threats of a player strike, or a Dally M boycott, have been avoided - as well as a potential protest by players just before this weekend’s games.


It also means the end of the media blackout, with the fans at home able to hear from players before, during and after games.

“The Rugby League Player’s Association is pleased to advise that it has reached in-principle agreement with the NRL on an historic collective bargaining agreement,” it said in a statement.

“Once ratified, this agreement will set rugby league up for the future while ensuring the rights of all NRL and NRLW players - current and future - are protected.


“The in-principle agreement will be presented to the Australian Rugby League Commission and Rugby League Players’ Association for ratification in the coming days.

“Player-led action for this weekend will be cancelled.

“The RLPA acknowledges the efforts of the NRL to resolve the CBA in recent days, and thanks its members for their resolve in ensuring a fair agreement that benefits the game and all of its stakeholders.”

Who buckled?

Who buckled?

I reckon NRL have but they’ll pretend they didn’t. I read the players were going to do a strike this weekend and delay the games and they were also looking at not attending the Dally M’s. So NRL have definitely agreed to terms that they weren’t agreeing with originally

 

[Bazildog]

Who buckled?

The NRL, but horsey boy came out yesterday saying he could get it done in a day or two so he looks like a negotiating guru..

 

[TwinTurbo]

What exactly was agreed?


Always a Bulldog
