Where was Kenny Edwards?

I'd say it's the passport thing. Travelling to NZ or Kiwi's entering here is problematic when you've done time or even have a record.

I did hear something on the quiet today about the reason why he wasn't available, my question to the club would be why hide it? ..,, I think the members deserve an answer a little transperancy

Parramatta Eel Ken Edward cops fine and Surfers Paradise ban after punching an NRL fan
http://www.goldcoastbulletin.com.au...ching-an-nrl-fan/story-fnje8bkv-1226993411304




Streetside CCTV footage showed Edwards roughing up the fan on OrchidAvenue before pushing him into random strangers, causing a female to hit her head on a wall.
The footage also showed Edwards motioning to shake hands with the fan but then punching him with a surprise left-hand jab.

Angry face <tick>
Merkin <tick>

The court was told Edwards had been partying with mates on the nightclub strip when he was approached by an Eels fan who joined him for a few drinks.

But the situation soured when the fan made derogatory comments about Edwards&#8217; brother.

From the article that Gronk linked.

Solicitor Campbell MacCallum Edwards was drunk and had little memory of the incident but the repercussions from his NRL club had been swift and painful.

But there is also this.

Hopefully there are no further sanction from the Integrity Unit and Edwards can get his focus back to playing some good, tough footy for us.

I actually think he is very lucky only missing one week, really should have been for a few games for punching someone out. Disappointed actually the club hasnt taken a stronger stance.

I cannot believe it but i know i hate kenny now.

What an absolute dog act, sucker punching someone who was about to shake his hand. Our team has become a bunch of cowards and primma donnas.

None of you merkins were there. I suggest to you that as the punishment was a mere slap on the wrist, that the court was satisfied that there were mitigating circumstances.
