Brad Fittler not at Captians Photo ?

[Corbin]

NRL (David Gallop the idiot) Questioned Brad Fittler and why he wasnt at the Captains photo in Sydney.

Their is no information on the nrl site about it, as yet. Yet it has been on 7.9.10 chanels for the sport report.

Does anyone have any more information on it????

I watched the Channel 10 report and saw nothing on Fittler being suspended for one game.

He is certainly not on the charge sheet. I think the NRL were more surprised than annoyed over the whole incident. I mean he was seen just next door when the photo shoot was finishing off, so I think Gallop and co were just wondering 'whats doing' more than anything else.

 

[Corbin]

yeh its just that it said he was on channel 7... and it mentioned about the photo on 9,10.
Ricketson was put in to replace him.

Fittler was not charged.

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

probably on a police stations doorstep.

 

[Corbin]

ok thanks heaps but it did say he was charged for a careless high tackle on 7 news

9 news said that Woolford may be charged for a careless high tackle, but he was still at the photo shoot.

Here are the charges

http://nrl.com/season2004/judiciary.cfm

Simon Woolford Raiders High tackle - careless 2
Scott Logan Rabbitohs High tackle - careless 2
Albert Torrens Sea Eagles Striking 1
Albert Torrens Sea Eagles Dangerous throw 1

Not even charged unless there's a late call.

well, NRL on Fox is on soon so we should get some news on that. If nothing is said, then he'll most likely get off.

 

[Raider Ultra]

They should be fined for not sending their captain to the photo shoot, sheer arrogance. One set of rules for them, and another for everyone else...

 

[Thunderstruck]

Fittler was probably in the restroom when they took the photo and couldn't finish quick enough :mrgreen: just kidding guys, but it's not unlikely is it?

 

[Forum Idiot]

leave the poor bloke alone he probably just fell asleep in the back of the taxi that was taking him to the ground.

 

[Kris_man]

disgraceful. the roosters have proved that they think they're above the NRL. disgraceful.

 

[gregstar]

As if Fitler would be charged with any crime in this comp on the eve of the finals!

 

[Thunderstruck]

Apparently Fittler was in the pool on a recovery session across from where they were taking photos according to Warren Smith.

 

[cookie36]

You guys are a joke, he probably wanted Ricketson to share in some of the spotlight.

 

[^ Pando]

Guess they forgot to tell the minor premiership winning captain that the photo shoot was on. :roll:

Was Ricketson at the recovery session?

 

[Parra_Eels]

why did he miss it? pretty slack

 

[dice]

You will recall the roosters had a self-imposed media ban last year and only Ricketson was allowed to speak to the media.

 

[^ Pando]

That was last year.
