NRL: Braith Anasta runs through his game one side for the New South Wales Blues on NRL 360.

Depending on who you talk to the Kalyn Ponga- Newcastle Knights possible salary cap breach is either a complete storm in a teacup or the tip of the iceberg of something more sinister.Call the hounds off because the way we’ve heard it the $250,000 Team Ponga was owed has since been paid and the case is set to be closed.

For the record, the amount owed to Ponga was $50,0000 per season from 2020 to 2024 making the total amount owed $250,000 – which is by no means small beer.No stranger to public relations disasters – most of them his own doing – Gardener negotiated the Ponga contract which has now blown-up because of an unpaid third party deal.

It’s well-known Cannavo is essentially the right hand man for the above mentioned Knights CEO Phil Gardener. Has recently been at war with Newcastle’s recruitment manager Adam Doyle who is extremely close to Newcastle’s previous recruitment manager Clint “Virus” Zammit.Went to the NRL Integrity Unit last week in relation to the unpaid third-party deal.Has a longstanding rapport with recruitment manager Clint “Virus” Zammit.

Zammit also attended a schoolboys carnival in Wagga Wagga last week where word about the unpaid Ponga third party deal began doing the rounds.
