Carney already has a deal with another NRL club

[bondi-boy]

Can't see that being the case.

Could be that he's run out of places to go, as clubs seem to be scared of offending Gallop and the NRL for one thing.

Maybe he could get a start in Union somewhere, Willie did.
He'd go well in Union, wouldn't have to make as many tackles, good step, kicks goals.

Jonny Wilkinson Mk2...I can see it clearly.

I think its more to do with them being scared of the circus that rolls into town once Toddles decides to go on another bender than it has to do with offending Gallop.

Cowboys coach more or less hit it on the head yesterday.
The France deal is looking less likely too.

Is there anything in print that says the France deal is not still available?

TC might not be the only player cut from the NRL and standing in the unemployment queue at Centrelink before long...or having to take a massive pay reduction:

. Some may be forced to close
. Government warned "for months"

TEN NRL leagues clubs have warned they will cut millions in funding to their football teams - and even pull out altogether - because of the federal government's plan to limit how much people can gamble on poker machines.

The clubs include some of the biggest in rugby league, and between them face a bill of more than $40 million to install pre-commitment spending chips in machines.

St George Illawarra will have funding cut altogether from St Georges Leagues from 2014. The club has warned it may be forced to close.

And this week the Canberra Raiders had funding from the CFMEU/Tradies Club pulled.

The clubs, teams and increased costs they face, are:

COWBOYS Leagues Club (Nth Qld) $3 million;
PENRITH Rugby League Club (Panthers) $10.6 million;
PARRAMATTA Leagues Club (Eels) $7.1 million;
ST GEORGE Leagues Club (Dragons) $6.2 million;
QUEANBEYAN Leagues Club (Raiders) $4.7 million;
EASTERN Suburbs Leagues Club (Roosters) $4 million;
MANLY Warringah Rugby League Club (Sea Eagles) $3.1 million;
CRONULLA Sutherland Leagues Club (Sharks) $2.9 million;
BALMAIN Leagues Club (Wests Tigers) $2.4 million;
ILLAWARRA Steelers (Dragons) $1.5 million.

NRL CEO David Gallop confirmed clubs were in deep trouble and said the Raiders' experience proved it.

This sort of confirms the rumblings around the traps.

So, he can't go to France.
Oh well they don't speak English anyway, and it's colder than Canberra.

The other 4 clubs not on that list are:

Titans
Roosters
Manly
Cowboys

Cowboys are out, given the above article.
Roosters are out.
Manly has Foran.

Titans is the only club left.

Now that he's all alone, no friends, no club, and no hope...he should learn the lesson well..."Never trust 'anyone'".

Been on that other Wall too long
Seriously Andrew Johns made a great career out of Coke and footy so what the **** is wrong with a drink here and there? Johnny Raper drank every night.Tom Raudonikaus used to skull them at half time.
Bloody soft cocks and a Board of faat fuucks

more like no one should ever trust Todd Carney

Don't forget NP.
The guy has a special interest in Todd.
We might be surprised at what eventuates?

Geez you are a drama queen. Carney has plenty of friends, who do you think he's out on the drink with?? Myles and all his Canberra mates for starters. The fact that they're not the friends he needs but that's his choice. As is everything else.

And you probably wouldn't want him at Le Catalan Dragons anyway, Brian Smith's son is their strength and conditioning coach and so the Smith connection would still be there. And I know you blame Smith for a lot of Carney's life choices. So you'd probably blame Keegan for any problems in France.

Can we ask John Elias to have a word with Andrew Wilkie?

Haven't the goddesses all left...and you are now alone too, minus a lot of money?

Could be our only hope.
Besides Gillard's fans forcing her to change her mind that is.

Could be why the door that was open abruptly shut.
