any1 heard if he is getting paid off or what ? Great player but could be useful quota spot if freed up , Obviously no point rushing to sign a average quota player but just ant heard anymore bowt todd ?

Don't think we could afford any more under the salary cap even if we paid Byrne off. We'll only sign someone else if Crocker's visa application is rejected IMO, and even then there'll be at least a 6 week wait for the visa application, that's excluding the time it would take to open and conclude talks with an already-contracted player.

thought Todd had gone home

back to australia i mean

Don't think so, if we paid him off it comes off the cap so we would not have any more spare cash anyway, in reality all we can hope is that Cocker gets turned down, but then we have to find someone, and if its an Aussie the season will be over by he gets here anyway!!

i think after all this time Crocker will not get a visa, we need an end to the whole sorry situation now.

Won't play again for us, think they have been waiting for the swelling to go down before the operation

I thought I was on the Dick Tingle thread.

Still in this country, was in Sainsburys last week. Was walking round ok as well

And you know a lot have missed that Crocker isnt a Steve norton you know!! yes he will lead by example and from the front but flair?? not the Crocker I have seen, he is an enforcer thats it , he will not make us champions with the rest flagging away

presumably we already have banked a substantial saving on Crockers salary ?

He will have been contracted from January & already missed 2 months of trhe season - that ought to be 25% of his salary, even assuming he is getting a modest retainer, surely won't be getting full pops for staying at home in Iz - will he ??

Cool, a transgression into MC debate. I would assume he's actually getting full whack (i base that on absolutely no knowledge of contract law)

The sorry saga needs an ending though, we just need the inevitable confirmation of his rejection for absolute closure.

And I would assume he's getting nothing at all as he cannot fuffil his contractual obligations

I think most of us are past it with the " he who will remain nameless" saga and just want it wrapping up one way or t'other.
