The article was unambiguous:

I'd be incredibly surprised if it was paid in crypto, I don't think either party would want that. This is far from SwyftX's first foray into sports sponsorship, and I can't see any of their other partners agreeing to be paid in crypto...

This is, quite specifically, some exceptions.

No chance of Hockings at this stage. RA would need to come to the party to bring him back on big coin, but I'm pretty sure it's too late for that. The time would've been when the League one eligibility rules changed, but if that didn't shift his thinking it's not going to change now. He'll be...

I doubt he was on a massive amount for Legion, I'm not sure there's a lot of money floating around MLR, even for the marquee players. It seems like his focus was more on being in the US than a big money deal. With MLR announcing a focus on US qualified and pathway talent going forward and the...

With everything going on in MLR I wouldn't mind seeing the Reds make a play for Holloway as a back up lock. He'd be a good, ready to go addition to the squad for a couple of years while guys like Brosnan and Ross come through, and hopefully not too expensive.

Statement from MLR about the 2026 season: Nothing too surprising there, but that stated commitment to USA qualified and pathway players should increase the chances we see some of the Aussies players released, particularly the capped guys like Holloway, Wilkin and Anstee. It should also mean...

Looks like Gordon is a done deal, to be announced on Monday: https://www.foxsports.com.au/nrl/nrl-premiership/nrl-2025-titans-release-carter-gordon-back-to-rugby-union-transfer-fee-wallabies-effective-immediately-transfer-whispers-rugby-league-news/news-story/9bd7d76e59bd87e3830697da56ac2b2b...

Speaking of Christy he's reporting Carter is a done deal: https://www.theroar.com.au/2025/10/10/the-golden-boy-is-back-gordon-set-for-wallabies-return-after-nrl-club-accepts-rugby-australias-transfer-fee/

Not to defend Doran, who has gotten significantly worse the last year or two, but I think you're letting Tony Harper off the hook there.

I think those french clubs might be a bit more fragile than people expect. None of them are going bust at the top at the moment but there's more risk when they drop back a level or two. There's a lot of wealthy benefactors keeping things going at the top, which is nice while you can get it, but...

I think it was as much to do with the injuries in the available centres as anything else - there was plenty of work being done to protect/limit the exposure of Pakeho and his ruck work leaves a lot to be desired, meaning they didn't want to risk early wide plays. Play was notably more expansive...

They play on opposite sides of the scrum

He would have to serve a 3 year stand down
