I don't get the hand-wringing on Segeyaro's behalf. The bad luck he's had is following on from the Hardaker farce of last year and at a time when players walking away from contracts has become a hot topic.

As an aside Aussie courts have upheld sporting contracts in the past - Gorden Tallis sat out the entire 1996 season rather than play for St George because he wanted to move to the Broncos, with a court ruling that he couldn't just walk away from his contract with St George.

You do realise the part you underlined isn't actually a quote from GH.

I'm not interested in your feeble attempt to assist your mate in the construction of his latest straw man.

He will be online soon to add more straw.

I don't need to add anything, i'm still waiting for an actual quote from GH.
All you've done is reposted my original quote and underlined something that the reporter claimed. It doesn't work like that i'm afraid.

When has that ever mattered to these jokers?

You just can't leave that straw alone, can you?
In light of what the CEO has now said, the above statement on 23 Nov was patently a fabrication.

Feel free to pay another visit to your barn.

It doesn't but it has to be linked to the club, like the quote you've now [ifinally[/i provided below.

The thing is, is that when posters like yourself & Gotcha, who have a very long history of making stuff up, start posting random quotes and stating them as fact then they just can't be taken seriously. The fact that no one on here believes a word you say is your doing and no one else's so to start spitting your dummy out and throwing insults around when you're asked to back something up is just comical.



OK, so he did say that Segeyaro was looking forward to returning. See, it's not hard to provide quotes or links when you're telling the truth, you should try it more in the future.

I wasn't at the meeting but maybe, after GH issued his warnings, that's actually what James or his agent said... even if it was just to get rid of GH so they could go to the beach or whatever.

We'll never know for sure.

....and even if he didn't then what difference does it make to Segeyaro breaking his contract and refusing to come back this season?

I know you like the word straw but it seems like you're really grasping for some with this i'm afraid.

Maybe Hetherington told Segeyaro that he would have to honour his contract and return to the UK and suggested consequences if that did not happen, Segeyaro along with his agent said Ok in order to buy themselves time. From that Heatherington then had the club release the statement to ensure that the return would be smooth.

The only ones who know are the ones in that room. Not all details have been released and whilst Hetheringtons statement is no seen to be incorrect, Segeyaro has been proven to be not altogether honest in his dealings, and his agents comments that have come to light appear to be even worse.

It is just not black and white that on either party's information and we are all making assumptions based on partial information of a meeting between the two

Doesn't really change anything, whatever the truth of what was discussed. We know that both parties are capable of speaking less than honestly; the impasse between them remains as before.

So what I said on page 100 that seems to have got certain posters with ants in their pants, Loiner81 after posting usual none related arguments, now accepts it did come from the club. So we are back to page 100. Loiner81 would be better off staying away from debates on here, due to the constant failures that just result in bad mouthing,

The thead that keeps on (and on and on and on) giving

Whilst it did come from the club, there is no proof that they were lying at that time. There was a meeting, the outcome of which no one on this board knows. We do understand that GH advised JS and his agent of the consequences of not returning. What JS and his agent said no one knows, but he's had a history of making statements that suit him at the time, and some of his agents statements, that I have seen posted on here are off the wall.

Isn't earning??? Come on let's not pretend Cromulla won't be looking after the guy financially with him training with them.
