As tempest rages, questions cloud air ANNE DAVIES and MALCOLM KNOX | The Sydney Morning Herald | April 24, 2010 We still don't know how far the subterfuge went, write Anne Davies and Malcolm Knox. As the initial shock of the Storm's abrupt demotion from the competition subsides, the question of who knew will quickly be replaced with another question: who should have known? In the early phases of this latest crisis in rugby league, the name of the game is to blame a few wayward executives. The chief executive of News Ltd, John Hartigan, called it ''a couple of rats in the ranks'', naming the former Storm chief executive, Brian Waldron, as the ''architect of the whole shooting match''. David Gallop, the chief executive of the NRL, backed Hartigan's assessment. But Waldron, who has now gone to ground, has claimed ''there were people on the board who knew about everything that was going on'', arguing that the Storm was merely following a widespread practice in the league of topping up salaries. In the case of the Canterbury Bulldogs, whose salary cap infractions were exposed by the Herald in 2002, the entire board of the football club and some of the Leagues Club board were aware that players' salaries were being topped up. They even noted the top-ups in board minutes. What some directors may not have known was how the extra payments were being funnelled to players. The most egregious of these were promotional payments to the players from the Oasis development, a massive casino-style club being undertaken by the Leagues Club with Liverpool Council.

Matthew Lodge Free to Play As Footage Surfaces of US Rampage
Matthew Lodge free to play as footage surfaces of US rampage smh.com.au/algo.html March 2, 2018 Matthew Lodge remains free to make his NRL comeback despite the emergence of shocking CCTV footage of his drunken New York rampage yesterday. Lodge is expected to make his debut for Brisbane in the NRL’s season-opening game against St George Illawarra at Jubilee Oval on Thursday night. It will be his first appearance in the top grade since June 28, 2016. Footage of the incidents, released to television outlets on Friday, shows Lodge attacking New York resident Joseph Cartright, who had come to the assistance of two women the former Wests Tigers prop accosted. Lodge is seen bearhugging Cartright before punching him in the head with a vicious right hook. Lodge follows up with a series of wild haymakers. The Broncos are standing by their previous statements on Lodge and a club spokesman said they were limited by the fact there was an ongoing civil matter, which could yet end up before an Australian court. It is believed club officials are under the impression he had reached out to his victims via correspondence two years ago to apologise. The couple’s lawyer Renan Varghese said neither he nor the victims had seen anything of the sort. Advertisement Speaking to Fairfax Media in August of 2016, Lodge said: "I’ve written a letter and apologised. What happened wasn’t really me and I assured them that nothing like that will ever happen again, from my part to them or anyone else.
