I'm guessing quite a few teams will be in for him.
St Helens, Bradford and maybe Huddersfield. |

| Quote: Widnes 'till i die "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)?????'"
The NRL haven't declared Manly or Parramatta as the winners of the NRL in 2007 and 2009 respectively, so how would the RFL be following the NRL's lead by declaring Leeds as the winners of competitions that they didn't win?
IIRC, Saints and Hull were found guilty of technical breaches rather than actually going over the cap, but I may be wrong. Either way, it is irrelevant. The breach has been done, and the relevant punishments have been handed out already. It would be ridiculous to punish them again because another organisation has done something different. Future punishments, yes why not. |

But it appears the ringmaster has fled ship over to the other code, and it may not be the first time he has pulled a stunt like this if the AFLs investigation on St Kilda provides evidence. |

No, read the first two paragraphs in that link. Then check the date and bear in mind Australia are about 10/11 hours ahead of us.
The Melbourne Rebels board of directors took the decision to ask Waldron to step aside [iafter[/i David Gallop's press conference announcing the stripping of the honours Melbourne achieved over the past three years. |

It got a half page in the paper and 2/3 page in the sports section of the Dominion Post here in wellington with half of that an article on the bookies reaction. I am sure the Auckland rag covered it with more depth.
It is an important news story as other sports look at the cap as a way of managing their competitions.
I have asked the question on another board, but is $500k a big fine realy? I know they have to find another $1.1 million, but is the fine big enough? Leeds wouldn't be too adversely affected if fined 500k........
