This dope really will never learn.

He's been punted from the QLD Origin squad after a brawl in Fortitude Valley in Brissy overnight.

The coppers had to use CAPSICUM SPRAY on him to arrest him!

D!ckhead.

Maroons dump Walker
May 3, 2004

CHRIS WALKER has been dumped from the Queensland State of Origin rugby league squad after being charged with assaulting police in Brisbane early today.


Walker - arrested after Brisbane incident.

Police used capsicum spray when they arrested the Sydney Roosters winger following an altercation at 4.15am in inner-city Fortitude Valley.

Walker, 24, was charged with assaulting police, obstructing police and being a public nuisance.

He was bailed to appear before the Brisbane Magistrate's Court on May 18.

Walker was immediately expelled from the Maroons Origin squad, which had been holding a training camp in the buildup to the first match in the three-match series with NSW on May 26.

Queensland Rugby League general manager Ross Livermore today said Walker had broken curfew and will not be considered for the opening Origin match.

"The police are investigating it and they have charged Chris Walker and he is no longer a member of the Queensland squad," said Livermore.

"We can't condone that kind of behaviour and he won't be considered for the first Origin game."

A former Brisbane Broncos premiership three-quarter, Walker joined the Roosters after a short-lived and controversial stint with South Sydney last year.

Renowned for his pace and fine support play, Walker was recalled to the Maroons' Origin squad this year after playing six matches for Queensland in 2001 and 2002.

No worries, sorry dude!

What a dope. I wonder if Sally from Home and Away will punt him too?

Hope so.

Well...We'll allow her two stuff-ups. The vid was one, Walker was the second. Hope she isn't the sort of person who has bad things happening in threes!

Besides, that w@nker in the home vid seriously tricked her, it's not like Mimi or Paris where the girls clearly KNEW they were on camera. This jerk hid the camera, that's poor form.

Although Shireshark may disagree with me! LOL, kidding mate! :shock:

"Renowned For his pace and support play".
The way he's going he might be renowned for something else.
Oh well anyone can stuff up.
Seems to be a pattern here though.
For you legal eagles. Is there a chance he could go to gaol?
I thought if I bashed a cop I could be in trouble but I'm not a State of Origin footballer.

No chance of gaol, unless the assault was by spitting, then it's virtually a given. Big fine and maybe a good behaviour bond, maybe. It's been coming. If any of you think he's a smart arse when sober, then I can assure you that he is a complete ahole when full of grog. A real big mouth - with nothing to back it up.

Good on the copper that sprayed him :clap: :clap: :clap: I hope it hurt like all hell - as capsicum spray does!!!

I think it's time the NRL stopped sitting on their hands and came out and punished someone for these acts of stupidity.

So the Rooters have fined him 10% of his contract. So what?

We're talking about an incident less than a week after we see the "conclusion" of the Bulldogs investigation. The game has suffered enough damage this year due to the acts of these overpaid egomaniacs.
I say the NRL should call a summit with ALL players from ALL grades of ALL clubs and state, in no uncertain terms, that ANYONE guilty of such offences in the future will have their contracts terminated immediately, and barred from participating in the NRL for life.

Simple.

And no, I'm not fogetting about Dumbass

I think being dropped from the Origin squad is a fair enough punishment. isn't this what every plaer aspires to? To play Origin

I'll go out on a limb here & back Walker up.
knowing qld coppers like I do & knowing QLDers like I do, I would not be surprised if he was victimised for being "chris walker"
QLD'ers don't like confident people. They don't like people with a bit of flair or lair. They don't like people who look different. They don't like people who think different.
QLD is another time & another place.
People like Walker or Mundine or not looked upon with bemused interest, but are instead hated with passion.
Hatred so intense, it is scary.
To think that the cops are different then the rest of the QLD "majority" of the population, is ridiculous.
I know the gold coast very well & brisbane quite well & don't need to do any research on QLD police to have an opinion on their integrity & honesty.
If just 4 cops that I know personally were on duty & they saw Walker & 20 other guys fighting, they would have singled out Walker for response.
BTW, Walker was past curfew because he was locked up, wasn't he?

Nope -- he was back at the motel at the appointed time, and then snuck out after curfew. Was busted by the cops a couple of hours AFTER he was supposed to be tucked up in bed.

Also a bit of a slight on us Queenslanders ;-)

That bloke who did tape the video now can not walk

Are you serious?

I hope so. What happened, did someone go after him or did he root himself stupid and do a 'Dermot'???

And BTR...Walker's incident occurred at about 4 in the morning. That's a fair bit later than the 1am curfew, don'tcha think?

I thought this was Rodney Rude joke, but there was no punchline. 8)

Yeah, well thats the story, but thats not what I've heard.

& apologies to the minority of QLDers who don't fit my description.
But I dare anyone to tell me I'm wrong.

For a great insight into criminal activity, watch a movie by Chris Nyst called gettin square. It could almost be a doco on Gold Coast police through the 80's & 90's. Nyst is QLD's number 1 criminal lawyer.

i think there may be an element of truth there reefy

walker - like our own kimmorley - has come in for some harsh criticism from all quarters

mundine very much the same - but he can blame his own mouth
