I agree that Wighton should be playing centre was a bad take post like 2017. He was a fine fullback. Not the best in the comp but certainly solid. He also set up more tries than our halves so moving him to 5/8th was worth a punt.
Again, its not even that Wighton "got into a fight" its that he got drunk and went around trying to bully blokes half his size into a fight. If you cannot see that is the actions of a raging dickhead than what can I say mate ?
He was being an aggressive f**kwit. I have been plenty drunk/high in my life and I have ever felt the urge to start swinging at people. It was also not an event in an era long gone it happened last year.
He was.he plead guilty. He's been charged & convicted. What more do you want? If the people in the videos were so scared of this enormous rampaging footballer- why didn't they just leave? Quite clearly they hang around, not exactly in fear for their safety. So either they gauge he's just a pissed idiot they can handle if they need to. Or he's not that big & scary (similar size in video). Or they kinda like the idea something might happen.
There is every avenue for them to leave if they are in danger. Yes- they have the right to be around anywhere at night unmolested. Yes, again- no argument Jack was being a pissed danger. But if I'm really scared some big random numnut has both the intent & capability to hurt me I leave the area. I don't give him a bloody nose & then hang around & see what develops.
Jack was being a massive d*ckhead. But no-one there was feeling the scene of a reign or terror. They tried avoid his approach- Jack was a persistent d*ck, they scuffled, hung around, gave him one on the snout, thought about scuffling again....
He copped an appropriate penalty. If you'd like to hold it over him forever, please do so. I won't be, I'll judge him moving forward & weigh that past in the balance if anything happens again. Mr Lama.
