their CEo has said they will be funding the club, they arent walking away

How much are you betting it won't make the Fijian news?

| Can't be bothered to go through 11 pages, so I apologise if it has already been discussed, but why should Leeds be crowned WCC? I know they've rejected the thought of it anyway, but I just don't see how anyone thought they should be. Melbourne denied another team the opportunity at the WCC, which could have beaten Leeds.
And besides, the salary cap in the NRL and the salary cap in the SL aren't the same anyway, so the WCC isn't a salary capped competition technically. Melbourne Storm are the best club side in the world, they just cheated to gain qualification (so shouldn't have been given a shot at it!).
And yes, I accept that there are probably a million flaws in my argument, but there are some valid points too!

| Why would a club run a second set of books so close to the main ones- Surely the wealthy owners would pay through there main business books which the RFL/NRL wouldnt get access to. All seems a bit simple to me!!

| Does this mean the Bulls are going to pull out the stops to get Bellamy as their new guy for next year?

| IIRC, in 2005 Leeds lost to Hull in the CC final, lost out in the race for the minor premiorship to Saints, and lost the grand final to Bradford. All of which were later found to have cheated the salary cap. Should the RFL follow the lead of the NRL, and declare Leeds the winner of the 2005 quadruple (they won the WCC that year as well)?????
