They've announced Wilson-King and Di Sotto, but they don't splash cash, they're amateurs, like the private school clubs :lol:
Deal in bitcoin these days
Imagine signing for one fifteenth of a bitcoin :lol:
That equals $10,000. I reckon Div 3 would have a huge influx if that was the case

Uni recently changed their Constitution to allow payments this year.
Last I read private school clubs are allowed to pay as well but I could be wrong

If you're not playing professionally, then you're an amateur aren't you? Regardless if you're receiving some remuneration. 8)

This is an interesting one. When Uni were a powerhouse it was often commented about the 6-8 "groundskeepers" working at the Uni who may not have had their attendance vigilantly accounted for.

I always assumed the "we don't pay players" was complete fantasy. A couple of years ago i was approached to Coach there and in my research found out it is 100% accurate and that it is in their constitution that there would be $0 to spend. I politely declined the opportunity. What they do have is a lot of teams and a great network and there are plenty of ways to milk a cow.

The ability to pay players certainly will give them an injection and arrest the slide of recent years.

Big in for the Kings in Seb Wauer. Has had a break from footy but could easily have played League footy. Was a top end elite Junior. Will be a great get and a 0 pointer as he went to Pembroke. Great to see the lad back on the field and will certainly strengthen their promotion aspirations.

Now they can pay...they go BANG!!! =D>

Fair effort as he had a huge offer over the border and spoke to his Junior Club in PNU but SPOC I am told made him a very very nice offer. Huge get for the Blacks!

Also means we are likely to have 2 players from Div 3 in the State Team along with one from Div 6.

How long until "Twang" there she goes again.

Hope not as he can actually seriously play, stays fit, play him in a pocket and he will kick 70-80

If he plays in a pocket/forward 50, he'll probably play most weeks. If they push him up the ground, they should run a sweep as to when something breaks
