Banaghan represents Monaghan and also warned that another of his clients, the New Zealand Warriors' scrum half Nathan Fien, will pull out of a proposed move to Huddersfield next season unless the Giants can come up with "government-approved financial arrangements".

Hmmmmm.... interesting..... but probably one for the Huddersfield board.

As some people have stated on this thread, if image rights are the reason we've been clobbered with this bill, then we're by no means alone, not that this justifies any action we may have taken (from an ethical point of view).

To be honest mate i have no idea what this means for us. All we can do is speculate really. Obviously it's not good news but how bad? I have no idea. Time will tell i suppose

What gets me, is that the Wildcats have had all that Super League money and yet still have debts and don't even have a decent stadium............and then expect the tax payers of WMDC to fund a new stadium...
