No wonder the eels won the spoon. Their supporters are a bunch of amoebas.
Shaun Anderson lol. He didn't seem very bright when they interviewed him.
The 30 year old had been celebrating a friend's birthday and was leaving when he encountered Anderson. Believing Anderson was at risk because of intoxication, Maitua gave his young clubmate some free advice. But Anderson did not accept it kindly and after a short exchange floored the former international with a punch to the head.
PARRAMATTA have sacked Toyota Cup player Shaun Anderson for knocking out clubmate and NRL star Reni Maitua on a night out in Kings Cross.
The Eels say they have conducted a full investigation into the incident that took place over the weekend outside the Tunnel nightclub in Kings Cross, and have cleared senior player Maitua of any wrongdoing.
Anderson, 18, has had his contract terminated for punching Maitua to the ground.
It's the second up-and-coming talent the Eels have sacked in the past week, after they also tore up the contract of Jamil Hopoate for bad behaviour at an NRL rookie camp in Sydney.
Eels chief executive Ken Edwards said the club would continue to take a hard line.
"I make no apology for the club's firm policy on player behaviour," Edwards said in an Eels statement.
"When a player signs with Parramatta, they acknowledge the high standards of behaviour expected. Our players need to be committed to the club, their teammates, our members and supporters.
"As a club we will continue to strive for excellence and foster a culture of respect, inclusiveness and teamwork."
Anderson claimed on Channel Nine that the Eels had showed favouritism by clearing Maitua, who is being touted as a future captain of the club.
"I thought he was about to deck me ... so I stood back and hit him first and that's what happened. And then he was out cold on the ground," said Anderson.
"It's an NRL player's word against an under 20s player's word. Straight up they're going to pick the NRL player aren't they?"
If Anderson was any good, he wouldn't have been sacked.

the same applied to Rodney Maeffauo who's now pesuing a boxing career
I don't think that's the case, jamil's status alone would of prevented him from getting sacked if we had weak leadership at the top the same applied to Rodney Maeffauo who's now pesuing a boxing career

Foxsports were reporting that the kid had a few and Reni noticed him and gave him a few words of advice which he didn't take too well.
maybe anderson should join him its one of the few professions where you are allowed to punch blokes in the head

Remember when Reni kicked a guy in the head who was lying on the ground and broke his nose.
What goes around comes around.
and if i recall correctly that guy was an off duty cop
but Reni is a reformed boy these days - you can tell by his one direction haircut
Yes he was. There was some girls beaten up too in the same altercation.
