Greg Inglis: 18 mths good behaviour bond for mid range DUI, speeding offences

[Chimp]

Souths should use this as an opportunity to sack him and free up a large chunk of the salary cap. Guys been garbage since mid 2015.

That's what I'd want them to do if I were a South's fan. He has 1 or 2 decent games a year... the odd moment of brilliance every now and then, but most of the time fairly disinterested and sulky....

 

[This Year?]

Maybe he counted the schooners wrong and thought he had 1 instead of 2 with the clock winding down...

Double demerits long weekend too. So there goes a few demerit points. I like Greg, but this is not a good image especially for him, or the game. Even worse than image problems he potentially could have killed himself or some poor innocent other driver. He really needs to be made an example of, so he should lose the test captaincy and possibly his spot in the team.

 

[The Brain Stormer]

He really should be handed a 6-8 week ban plus lose his captaincy at both club, state & test level.

The demerit points wont count for a lot if he doesn't have a licence to drive anyway.

 

[Fire]

Still blew mid-range after 2-3 hours behind the wheel.

Jesus.

 

[Bandwagon]

The real crime was naming him captain in the first place, the rest is just confirmation of that.

True

I think this is the perfect opportunity for the NRL to kick Souffs out of the comp.

Mid range is pretty much f**k all TBH.
I was .049 after 2 beers once after oztag.
I usually had 3 but the one night they pulled me over I only had 2.
A full strength beer is a fair bit more than 1 drink.
I just always thought 3 beers in an hour and a half would be fine.
I was probably over the limit every wed night for 20 years.

It’s no excuse but it doesn’t take much to be mid range.

 

[Old Time Tiger]

He’s already been charged, why is the RL integrity unit looking into it?

Oh yeah, he’s from Macksville and those Queenslanders can do no wrong, all the bad things that happen with players are from NSW players.

I think you may be confusing mid range with low range.

He was playing in Dubbo and was stopped at Lithgow, that’s got to be a 2.5 hour drive as he was only caught 14k over the limit. It doesn’t seem like a case of being unlucky.

I was .001 from being over the limit after 2 beers ( tooheys new )
4 beers over 2 hours especially at 5% or higher would get you pretty close mid range.

Like I said it’s no excuse but it’s pretty easy to go over.

Kangaroos captain career even shorter than Mals political career.

Speaking of which Mals action in the next few days will be interesting given his big talk about putting respect and pride back into the jersey. I have a bad feeling Mal will push for him to keep the role and play. Hope I am wrong...

Mal's No Dickheads Policy to go straight out the window. As long as Inglis didn't write any naughty words on his wrist he's good.

Yeah well
He ain’t the sharpest .
But that wasn’t really what I was getting at.

This is very naive tbh.

In this case, and with some assumptions being made, Inglis was close to 3 hours into his journey from Dubbo and blew mid-range AND was speeding.

He is very, very lucky he did not have a RBT just outside Dubbo.

Can't believe anyone gets in a vehicle with the idea they should drive even after 1 drink.

f**king irresponsible dead shits.

Hence the reason you don't drink and the drive. Pretty f**king simple.

And people don't get this?????

For what mal did to semi and Fifita , I expect mal to to be hard .

But for what it's worth in terms of NRL/club sanctions I would normally say in line with other sanctions BUT he will cop it due to their non-action against Souths and then letting off billy skater at judiciary he will cop it , especially since the dogs coped it for bring the game into disrepute on eve of finals, I guess day after a grand final is just as bad
