I know in the EPL, players direct relatives cannot bet on any football matches on the planet unless the relatives can prove they are no longer associated with the player. If that rule carries over to the NRL, he is in deep shit no matter if its his or his mums account.
This is surely not true

If I'm a professional soccer player, how can they mandate what my brother bets on?

This whole thing with high profile players begs the question: ‘what percentage of the game’s players are on the gear?’.
We‘ve had stories/suggestions/evidence of Bromwich, Smith & Munster, Ponga & Mann, Latrell, Addo-Carr and now Mam. Statistically speaking that’s a pretty good sample and all but 2 are internationals.
Most of them spent time at the Storm

Remember kids.

Always do your insider trading in your wife's name.

Bonus points if she kept her maiden name.

None. Only rumours have been ones pushed on Facebook groups which May's lawyers have issued "cease and desist" orders to, which, if ignored, opens the door to legal action for defamation proceedings.

Any media reports on what Terrell may has done ?

Further to my earlier post, 2MMM mentioned this morning that Dean Richie has written a column about it in the Daily Telegraph. May purportedly said in an end of season review interview that he didn't feel motivated and didn't want to be at the Roosters.

Yeh saw that

Big difference to the rumours

If I was him I definitely would go legal

NRL legend Wendell Sailor has been charged with five offences over an incident at a Sydney inner city bar on Wednesday night, where police allege he assaulted two people and intimidated another.

The ex-Brisbane Broncos legend’s life has taken a turn for the worse after he quit his radio career, with police also taking out an apprehended violence order out against him to protect a woman following a separate incident that occurred within the past week.

A NSW Police spokeswoman confirmed that officers were called to Pappy’s Bar on Erskine St about 11pm on Wednesday after a person inside the tiny establishment called the police and reported an alleged assault.

A number of officers attended the scene, where they arrested the NRL premiership-winning hero, and took him to Day Street Police Station.

Sailor was charged with five offences before being released on conditional bail.

The code-hopping dual international, who played 37 times for the Wallabies and 16 times for the Kangaroos, was charged with two counts of common assault and one count of intimidating a person with intent to cause them fear of physical harm.

The officers also charged Sailor with one count of offensive behaviour in public and remaining in the vicinity of a licenced premises after being excluded.

No injuries were reported during the incident, the police spokeswoman said.

Sailor was ordered to face The Downing Centre Local Court on November 28.

The alleged incident came about a week after police took out the interim AVO to protect a woman from Sailor.

The Daily Telegraph has chosen not to name the woman as the purpose of the interim AVO is for her protection.

‘NOTHING HAPPENED, MATE’

The AVO is listed to go before the Downing Centre Local Court next on Wednesday.

When contacted about the assault accusations, Sailor said, “Nothing happened, mate. Nothing happened”.

He then hung up the phone before any question could be asked about the AVO application.

In July, Sailor, 50, announced his immediate retirement from his radio commentary role at Triple M where he was a popular host of the afternoon Rush Hour show.

Sailor, who moved to Wollongong after being signed to a two-year contract with the St George-Illawarra Dragons, is understood to have been living in the Sydney CBD in recent times.

He was dragged into a civil dispute with law firm Madison Marcus who represented his son Tristan in the case where he was found not guilty of raping a woman at a social gathering in 2020.

The law firm sued Tristan, who now plays for the English Super League, in the District Court over alleged unpaid legal fees and added Wendell as a defendant in the case.

The case was discontinued on July 16.

Pappy’s Bar has been contacted for comment.

Mystery solved as to where Andrew Gee landed. Police Prosecutor, didn't have that on the bingo card.

The 4 yo girl off her chops on painkillers must have said it's not his go.

The no charge of dangerous driving causing GBH is outrageous unless the reports of the injuries weren't accurate. Keep in mind Sandon Smith copped that charge for a pure accident whilst not disqualified from driving or under the influence and yes I'm aware they are different jurisdictions.

Not saying he doesn’t deserve a long suspension but I read the girl made a quick and full recovery which could be relevant
