This. JDB also took them to court over it and lost so the nrl is legally covered with it as well.

For now. As more innocent guys lose their careers eventually the RLPA will push back.

The rule is all over the place as it is anyway

There's a reason it's called the "no fault stand down" technically they're stood down while going through the legal process to protect the nrl brand. It's not a judgement on innocence or guilt. It won't ever be overturned.

It's pretty disgusting when you think about it

A little. Never been a fan of legal/business talk. Like a bunch of rats.

For me If an offence is bad enough for the player to be stood down, Then if found guilty they shouldn't return.

It is purely for show. guys like Tristan Sailor lost a career from it.

Other sex pests can't play UNTIL they are convicted... really makes no sense

It makes zero logical sense.

Of course it's for show. Entirely a PR exercise from the nrl.

May has shown enough to recover from this if found not guilty. The bad situation will be when some 18 year kid misses his shot at a career because someone lies.

JDB?

May's timing helps. Had he hadn't been locked in 2025 he'd be pushing it to get it sorted by then

Which begs the question

When did someone possibly being a sex pest become worse than a convicted sex pest?

3 premierships in a row yet the Eels still have a larger membership that’s disgraceful

you bandwagoners don’t like spending money

You'll have to ask the nrl. If May is found guilty the nrl will punt him for good though.

Not unless he goes to jail

A little off the May topic but...

Another Panther fan joined the fold (baby number 5, 3rd Panthers fan) on the 16th

A little sidenote, I got the name Preston (as tribute to my favourite player of all time ) as a middle name

Congrats mate!

The way things are now the nrl would get destroyed if they didn't get rid of him on a guilty verdict. There's a huge push around DV right now the one person here I know is on social media regularly can back it up is @herbert henry1908
