Folau to quit... it's all starting to unravel...

Folau set to quit

[The Lobster Effect 891]

So long Izzy.

I'll always remember your 13 games, 39 kicks, 18 tackles and 2 goals.

[PaulRB 6,363]

They'd be freeing up salary space for Kurt then...

[GawnWithTheWind 604]

PERFECT! This takes the attention off us for a while!

[The Lobster Effect 891]

How much cap space would he clear for Tippet? (I know most of his wage was for his afl paid marketing role, so maybe him leaving won't free up much cap room anyway)

[La Dee-vina Comedia 16,766]

Mind you, Jim Stynes, Tadgh Kenneally and, more recently, Mike Pyke show that successful code swapping is possible.

Of course, we may be drawing the wrong conclusion. Media conference might be to say Folau has extended his contract.

Yes about 10 minutes.

What? to ten years? haha

Izzy is being paid outside the salary cap. A large slab of his contract is down to AFL promotion. (Same for K-Hunt.)

for about 6 mins !!

[beelzebub 23,377]

Yes about 10 minutes.

lol didnt get as far as reading yours before replying..lol

your generous btw !!

[beelzebub 23,377]

I dont think his heart was EVER in it.. Just enjoyed the salary while it lasted and he could be bothered.

Hell be back playing that stupid game in no time with the other lot crowing loudly.

What a huge loss

I thought the AFL's wheels within wheels must have been working for some time. stopping him from being delisted.

I think this is it?

[hardtack 10,537]

Great tweet doing the rounds: "Melbourne tanking inquiry claims first victim with Israel Folau quitting GWS: claims even the sight of $Scully now makes him sick."

[hardtack 10,537]

Looks like he's set to join the Parramatta Eels NRL team http://www.smh.com.au/afl/afl-news/folau-set-to-quit-afl-eels-lie-in-wait-20121101-28m3m.html

You win some, you lose some.

Hunt = win. Folau = lose.

[Sir Why You Little 37,039]

What a monumental waste of $$$ even taking the marketing factor into account.

[brey9186 102]

Got them noticed in NSW, his press conf will be broadcast live all over aus now!

[Born to Run 204]

Tippett off to GWS. Lock it in.

Yeah worth every cent. Skoda stadium packed to the rafters with delirious fans chanting for GWS whilst the NSW press hacks report Kevin Sheedy's every word to fill both back and front pages. In other news Barnaby Joyce has quit politics to take up an Arts Council grant for a street theatre project he has been working on entitled "Requiem for a Sad Clown".

ooooooohhhhhhh! Does this mean the Karma Bus is heading in Kurt's direction

[Deestroy All 14,266]

Can we take him in the PSD?

Given all that is happening, we wouldnt want to do that and make the AFL any more angry with us. It is there dream to get him to GWS, lets try and keep the sanctions to a minimum.....
