Quote: John Gilbert Reds "Not quite.
For a start, it wasn’t dismissed, a settlement was reached which the Puletua’s were more than happy with. An RFL representative also sat in on the whole thing and as a result now have enough evidence to investigate the club for offering and paying side payments. If they’re found guilty, we’ll be hit with a hefty points deduction.

Presumably if there's a hefty points deduction on the way then there's no point in spending any more on the squad than we need to see us through the middle 8s again?
