Salary Cap - Politics!

Ok Guys

A lot of posts tonight - and for all the right reasons!

In a few hours the "do-gooders" will jump on and talk about "generation next" and how we have to respect the effort they put in "support, support, support" - but I thought I would - as I often have - put this all in a bit of perspective:

$4.9 MILLION DOLLARS!!!!!!!

That's the salary cap - isn't it????

I'm probably wrong - in fact I'm sure I am - BUT - it's close - so let it be/it will be a relative figure:

$4.9 MILLION DOLLARS

That means that we live in a country whereby we think it is acceptable to denegrate a Prime Minister and any Government politician that earn on average $150,000 per year - YET - woe betide anyone who picks on our esteemed "warriors"

CRAP!

That was insipid, pathetic, lazy, self engrossed, princess, protected species, skill deficient, heartless ....... embarrassment!!!!!!!!!

Foley (and to a lesser degree Pollack) - hold your head high! You are a rare few amongst many,

The rest are not worthy of being $150,000 a year politicians - and - that includes:

Richo - approx $600,000+ per year
Johnson, Bowden $300,000-400,000 per year
Tuck, Pettifer, Raines, ........ and many others $150,000+

We have a great saying in my workplace:

"I don't trust you to stand the watch"

NONE - of the RFC right now are worthy of anything but total contempt,

Shame really

PS - don't ever ever blame the coach - blame the workers

because - they are not working!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Or sign them to a legitimate "Workchoice" contract - which after today - would have seen many of them refunding perhaps 50% of all membership fees to the supporter base:

30,000 members - $50 each - $1.5 million off contracted salary cap!!!!!!!!

Tell me they deserve their money!!!!!!!!

THEY DON"T!!!!!!!!
 
WOW!

I posted this 5 minutes ago - and already it's at the bottom of the page, with PRE members contributing to other posts :)

Glad to see I'm not the only sucker who has to go to work tomorrow explaining tonights farce!!!!!!!!!!
