2024-25 Off Season Incidents

[Babyface O'reilly]

So is this it, then or does the NRL mete out its own punishment? Using Mitch Pearce and Spencer Leniu as I guide, he’d get banned for the season and a 500k fine, yeh-nah.

I know everyone's talking about the fine and the suspension but to me the issue is the charges. The judge can only lay down punishment for the crimes he was charged with. Why the f**k didn't the cops hit him with a slew of driving offences, Operation of a vehicle causing grievous bodily harm, Dangerous operation while affected by an intoxicating substance etc. etc. its on camera for f**ks sake and it look terrible. Politicians complaining about the punsihment need to ask the police some questions.

Yeah based on the charges I'm expecting 4-6 weeks in line with Ado Carr. IMO it should be minimum half the season but 12 months would totally be appropriate.

Imagine if this had happened in Sydney to a high profile Sydney based player. haha

I said it earlier, if Mam gets a lesser suspension then Leniu that’s an absolute disgrace. What Mam did is thousands of times worse

I got a $870 fine for being unregistered in Melbourne 10 years ago.

Ezra Mam gets less than that for being off his tree and hitting a car with a young kid in it.

More evidence of what Madge is facing in Brisbane. These guys are untouchable and think they're not only bigger than the game,but bigger than Jesus.

Surely they can't. It's unavoidable given Ezra was involved in that and it's inevitable the comparison will happen.

Should be 12 weeks plus, but won't be

Why didnt they indeed
Either the injuries aren't as severe as reported or bRoNcOs InFlUeNcE
Meanwhile Sandon Smith from notable small club the Roosters was charged appropriately

Just a ridiculous process. Not even the most bias Broncos supporter can justify this one.

Different jurisdictions.

There have long been suggestions that QLD police are... On good terms with the broncos.

NSW police has their issues but I've never really heard of them being chummy with footballers.

Either way, QLD police definitely should be explaining why more severe charges weren't brought to the table. Maybe the injuries weren't as severe as reported but unless they were non existent I don't see any justification to not bring reckless GBH. His actions were reckless, that cannot be argued and fairly minor injuries can be defined as GBH.

Also and not sure if this has been posted yet but he has had his license suspended 3 times in 2 years. He is a serial menace on the road.

NRL star’s driving ‘disgrace’ exposed as new details surface

The 21-year-old’s full list of traffic penalties and punishments have been laid bare for all to see.

I think many of us have or know of someone who has been punished accordingly or possibly harsher for a lot less than what’s occurred here.

I personally think the outcome and punishment for what EM did is not acceptable but it’s worked out well for him.

It’s now up to the NRL to determine whether the legal punishment is enough or impose a further punishment. If they brush this under the rug, none of us will be surprised but it will set a dangerous precedent and contradicts much of what they’ve said will not be tolerated.

We will see what happens but it isn’t the first time the courts have been armed with firm pillows

Greg Inglis guilty of drink-driving

According to google, Ezra Mam is an internet personality.

 

[blue bags]

Ok his an immature dickhead tool
On multiple drugs. Unlicensed. Having head on collisions. Putting the public at Risk
But what is the reason for the Ute Ezra was driving to cross over to the wrong side of the road ?
Was it being stupid. The cocktail of drugs
He fell asleep. Or distracted. Phone use?

It’s okay, he has had his license taken off him, he won’t be back behind the wheel again for a few months.

 

[Exsilium]

Inglis must be fuming now. He’d be thinking if Mam can do all that and what he did shouldn’t have even warranted turning up to court.

I see what you did there….for $850 and a redundant extension on the previous suspension, I’d risk it to not have to be on a bus in QLD
