Discipline - a buzz word

How seriously does BA really take discipline? Ive been thinking about the amount of negative off field incidents that have occurred since he has been in charge:

- Kaysa gets Kenny Edwards to take a drug test for him
- Kenny Edwards assault charge on the Gold Coast
- Junior Paulo road rage incident
- Corey Norman caught with ecstasy
- Junior Paulo and Corey Norman consorting with criminals
- Corey Norman and his Canadian Club pussy licking movie
- Peni Terepo careless driving and refusing to give a blood test (I wonder what was in his system?)
- T-Rex DUI charge
- Kenny Edwards intimidation charge
- Kenny Edwards suspended license, alleged driving with a suspended license and evading police. As well as failing to inform the club when it happened.

Is there anything I have missed? (Semi not guilty so I’m not including that incident)

The place is a f**king shambles

I think you could come up with a similar list for a lot of other clubs.

That said, I don't disagree that we are f**ken hopeless and BA has to cop some of the blame for that.

I’d be surprised if a lot of other clubs had wrap sheets as long as ours in the past 5 years.

Be interested to see which other clubs do (if any)

There’s also the fact that BA doesn’t mind signing players with a rap sheet.

Broncos would if everything didnt get swept under the carpet
Roosters have had plenty over the years
Titans were all doing drugs alledgedly - who was in charge then?

There are plenty of things that go on .... f**ked if i could list em all ... but every club deals with it just like the great Mr Gutful previously pointed out dependingon the stature of the player ... eg Bromwich, Proctor cocaine - couple of weeks, all good

Us eels fans scrutinise the living f**k out of our club - mostly cos things arent going great and everyone is disgruntled .... if we had won 2 or 3 premierships no f**ker would give a shit if players were playing up

Not to mention some of the things on the list are decidedly nitpicky....a player got his end wet and decided to record it, what a f**ken' travesty!

Thinking more about it, i reckon Roosters would have more than us in recent times

Pearce numerous
SKD numerous
Carter
Nikorima

Just off the top of my head ... i would bet there is more

They only sacked players when it was in their best interests to dump them

I'm going to come up with a list now because I reckon it will highlight some far bigger problems at other clubs. I'll only focus on 2013-2018 so that it matches BA's time at the club.

Keep the suggestions coming and I'll get them into a list which I'll post later tonight. Even @Noise is welcome to make some suggestions involving other clubs upload_2018-5-14_19-23-9.gifupload_2018-5-14_19-23-10.gifupload_2018-5-14_19-23-11.gif

I think it reflects the fact that we need to take risks to attract and retain football talent under the salary cap. This includes signing merkins relatively cheaply because other clubs won’t touch them, whether for proneness to injury or likelihood of being deregistered by the NRL.

What did SKD do? Didn’t he get let off and the judge actually told the chick she was a flat out liar?

Well yes, but then there was the whole pocket full of marching powder thing.

That's a bit worse than shagging some bird on a shitty phone camera.

Cory Norman licking a pussy wasnt exactly a court case against him but you enjoyed lumping it in our list of indiscretions

I dont think SKD did nothing to her, they just found her to be a crazy f**ker too

SKD got done for possession too
