I'm sure he'll be grateful for your concern.I had actually forgotten about him, but I do remember him at the Tigers. I didn't know he was troubled off the field though.
"Troubled NRL player Daine Laurie is in jail for serious charges including wounding with intent to murder, reports www.dailytelegraph.com.au.
Laurie, 32, went to Coffs Harbour Local Court last week for two alleged shootings.
He is alleged to have fired a firearm at a house in Nambucca Heads on October 28, 2016 that injured two people.
The prop forward made his NRL debut for the Wests Tigers in 2008. He then joined the Panthers in 2010 and then Newcastle for one year in 2012."

Apparently the Herald up in Newie wrote an article with him as a 'former Knights player' having played only a pre-season trial and handful of NSW Cup games for them... Nathan Brown gave it to the journo in question in last night's post-match
I get that but it did seem an unnecessary link, especially when it has no material impact on the club right now - a club already struggling for good PRtbf it is the local newspaper up there and he was part of the club.
Would be a different story if the Daily Tele or SMH wrote an article and only mentioned that he was with newy ignoring the Sydney clubs he played for.
Seemed like he had a lot of natural talent with no brainpower to back it up.
He never made a first grade appearance for them - so to write an article where half of it explains the tenuous link seems a little bit pointless and yes, a bit shit.So he isnt a former Knights player ?
I'm sure he'll be grateful for your concern.
Heard of irony?ed grimley you're an idiot.
You are such a racialist lesbian.Daine Laurie,Jamal Idris and Tony Williams 3 players hyped up because they were big but in actual fact none of them had any ability at all.
wouldn't they just add a few more to the list and mistake his name for dean laurie?tbf it is the local newspaper up there and he was part of the club.
