Pangai Jr to be sacked

Just a thought, I'm not a legal expert but given Alfie wasn't sacked for the same breach could TPJ claim unfair dismissal or something along those lines? You'd think the only foot the Broncos have to stand on is if TPJ has had previous breaches but I don't remember ever hearing about him getting in trouble off the field

That big lumpy carpet in Broncos HQ is hiding some big secrets.

They've probably swept heaps of shit under it and now will turn it against him. Legend has it that Andrew Gee is still hiding under there.

It’s an interesting thought. It’ll depend on their contracts I guess. Players have clauses in theirs these days as they get up to too much off-field shit nowadays. Alfie would have a standard workplace agreement since he’s staff. He’d need three warnings, wouldn’t he? Broncos could argue it’s not a like-for-like case.

Surely the staff members get sacked also. They went to the pub to celebrate Alfie's birthday ffs.

That may be the case but what happens when the next player breaches covid protocol (it's bound to happen)?

I’d like TPJ to end up at the titans. Would add a bit of SpiCe to the ‘derby’ with him and Fifita there.

Seems to be becoming a problem that some players whose teams are out of the running don't give a shit about whether the comp continues
