Is there anything the RFL, Super League, or the sport in general can do to rid itself of this man? He's making a killing pimping League players out to Union clubs and his latest idea of challenging the very integrity of contracts within the sport is just way beyond the pale. Super League needs to make a stand. His brother shouldn't be on Sky promoting the players he wants to ship to Union.

Are any of Saints' current players with this guy? I think there is a responsibility for the clubs to back Cas over this and ban their players from using him. If we have any, I'd seriously hope they're forced to get rid of him.

There's 2 views on this,
1. He's a cancer on our sport and the fact our main broadcaster employs his brother in its RL coverage is a farce
2. He's a good agent doing a good job for his clients who have a very limited time to earn a lifetimes wage.

Both are true, but my personal thoughts are Phil Clarke should either show his loyalty to the sport and condemn his brothers actions or resign his position

If Agent Clarke manages other sports then you could probably lean towards option 2.

Phil Clarke is a director and equal shareholder in Outside Sport Ltd - the agency representing Solomona - therefore he is equally culpable to his brother in this situation.

One feels there should be action towards Sky then. If the clubs won't do it, the fans certainly should.

If he'd followed the correct procedures here then yes. But what he's done is a direct attack on the sport. He's trying to break a legally binding contract and clearly believes by doing that that he will be successful in court. If that were the case, and you've got to remember Union will have a clear advantage in the vast majority of courts due to the social status of the sport. They will also be spending more than Cas, SL or the RFL on the case too.

Best case for league here is their actions are ruled illegal and Cas get a small payout, much smaller than the hundreds of thousands they want. Worst case is it's allowed and you've effectively got no professional game anymore.

Sean Long and Martin Gleeson did more damage to rugby league than Phil Clarke ever will yet they were revered on here.

Personally I dont see what all the fuss is about.

When were they ever in the news for the right reasons? Especially Long?

Phil Clarke has done nothing wrong and this witch hunt is embarrassing

With Long I think you have to factor in that he is as thick as two short planks, Gleeson was the most devious of the two and hence the club got rid. Phil Clarke would have been Savvy to what was going and has done nothing wrong directly but has an unbroken link to the situation.

Long was in the papers pretty regular when he was winning games with last min drop goals and picking trophies up for fun.

Obviously your referring to the betting scandal but what else was he actully in the paper for which he'd done wrong ?

I've not mentioned Phil Clarke by the way

Considering you claim to socialise with him I find it embarrassing you forgot about the whole Australia incident he was the instigator of? As for the "apart from" quote. You make it sound like he was involved in some sort of banter instead of front page news that every one was talking about in a negative light.

This whole thread is about Phil Clarke and what he has supposedly done when the truth is, he has done nothing wrong. We are just looking for a scape goat as to why our game is a million miles behind proper rugby and Phil Clarke is the latest one

Yes I do know Sean and I also know what happened on that tour also ( do you really know ? ).

I admit he was little wild back in the day but you claim he was in the papers more for the wrong reasons more often than Good.

Ok, you claim he was the instigator on the GB tour (I don't agree) and also the silly betting on saints to Lose. The also rumours and hearsay of other stuff in his time at Saints but I don't recall it being in papers.

However, I do recall him making the papers for winning man of steel award, 3 Lance Todd trophies , breaking points in a season super league records (twice).

He also was part of the team that won 5 challenge cups (Lance Todd 3 times), 4 super leagues and also a world Club championship. He also represented both England and Great Britain.

Yes I agree, he's more known for the off the field stuff icon_beat.gif
