wow... that's a media beat up if i have ever seen one
Have to support the club's action but, if he wasn't stood down the NRL would have anyway....the fine is harsh but maybe that's what needs to be done. I am sick of us being in the papers for all the wrong reasons. I think most players would reconsider binging on if they face the prospect of a $20000 fine.
We have now set a precedent. I hope this is the last bad publicity we have this year, i'd like to see us fly under the radar.
Weather the player's like it or not they are in the public eye. So their actions will be publicly scrutinised, i know i have been drunker then seymour was but at the same time i don't have thousands of kids idolising me, plus fans supporting me.
Let's hope he gets his head screwed on and gets back to what he does best
The farkin' precedent was set with Watmough and Stewart you tool.
Manlys way. Nuffin' happend so to stop Dessie thumping the desk at the committee meeting we are playing both players.
NRL steps in (the precedent) Stewart not playing cause he was pissed. "We all know why he was dropped for four weeks and it wasn't because of the piss episode."
But the precedent was set wasn't it.... Tool.
Watmough snots a sponsor at an official club pissup. Way too munch piss drunk - whoa whoa.......... but it is all swept under the brookvale carpet.
Now correct me here. I might of missed something. How many weeks did Watmough get again.
Now the reality of the situation.
I don't think I even need to gothrough it. 24 year old male - white - 11pm ish, has too many drinks gets filmed with a woman - He might of had a firearm but the mobile phone cam didn't pick that up. He might of had a knife concealed on his person. The cam didn't pick it up.
Now if the mole paparazzi wanted to they could of filmed , oh I don't know how many 20 something drunk males that night in that area. But arrhhh no, It was a just a footballer on the piss after making hisfirst successful comeback after a knee recon and well probably letting off a bit of steam.
Farkin' criminal he is.
Now the film is sold to the grubs, shown on TV, Mr Gallop strong righteous he of no life wields a big big stick, so the club known as the club that backs its players (it is us I am talking about here tool) what do they do.
Gee those sharks know how to handle the criminal element within the club. Wish everybody in the NRL was like Cronulla.
Dessie is probably on the piss right now with Watmough laughing through his Crown Lagers.
