LeagueHQ: Storm backed for wooden spoon, NRL betting suspended.
When the bookies start shortening odds, you know something’s up.
The NRL has been investigating a third-party agreement between Storm captain Cameron Smith and FoxSports. Under salary cap rules, third-party agreements do not count under the salary cap as long as the club played no part in negotiating the deal. The deal has been queried as the Storm is wholly owned by News Ltd and FoxSports is part owned by News along with Consolidated Media Holdings.
Sounds like this investigation into Cam Smith (and other Storm players) has legs. Salary caps, they’re a bastard eh?
FUCKING SOULLESS CHEATS.
