Rumour Warriors Recruitment Discussion and Rumour Mill - 2015

[¿N. ig-mah¿]

No way did the Warrior or any other NRL club make 24 Million.
Maybe a 24 million dollar buisness - i.e revenue.

24 million = Sponsorship + NRL grant (majority) then gate takings + jersey sales etc.

And Watson was only entitled to take half of whatever profit came from the $24M turnover, as half belonged to Owen.

Yeah we discussed this in the OG thread and the quote was that the club made 24mil and made a profit.. so that was 24mil revenue and an undisclosed profit which could have been 10 dollars for all we know

Doesnt Owen Glenn trust own the other half?

No. Ngani was training with first grade preseason in 2013. There were epic videos on here of Ngani in wrestling training monstering all comers, and I'm pretty sure Konrad was around the year beforw that.

Wasn't that last year? He pummeled one of them young pommy boys?
He was def involved in the 2013 pre season tho coz he played in the titans trial I went to that year.

You might be right, but you get the point.

But last year was his fat year. Didn't he get his arse kicked for a bad preseason thanks to his beef?

Eric also likes to run a tight monetary ship in his businesses. Which isn't a slight, he's no skinflint (or, for balance, saint).

Back when EW's other half was still Nicky, if they wanted consumer electronics they'd pop into one of his nearest stores and buy the demo and clearance stock. Sometimes for gifts too.

Now, some will say that was being cheap. But clearing aged stock and refreshing demos aids an individual store, and the cost to him was the same fresh-in-box or clearance/shop-soiled. He does what he can for his businesses. Be it little things like that, or dropping a million when needed.

Just a shame for his character that he and Hotchin didn't do the same thing with Hanover. I guess if he'd chucked a mil a year into the punters who got fucked over, he might have got some respect back (in my eyes)

Don't think a few extra kgs would've hurt when it came to sumo time.

Thread is getting quite long so lets get into Part 2...coming right up.

LOL the facts are how many games he played in 2014 as opposed to how many missed by an injury, not WHAT IFS

If anyone involved in our recruitment failed to ask 'what ifs' during the process, I'd want them sacked.
