Junior Amone free to play in 2023

[TheBlackKnight]

It's official.

 

[Parko1310]

Club needs to stand him down themselves

 

[justadragon]

Now we have a headache !!

 

[Centralcoastdragon2]

NRL have given us a hospital pass but that's the rules. I think we pick him in 2nds this week. If we don't use him his manager who looks after Bud and others will cause us trouble. Morally he should be sacked but we know he will be at another club within a week.

Buds position to lose - Amone can take Mbye's spot at 14, all in on Bud, still think he offers more and we can't have two rookies in the halves.

 

[RedVee_8]

Yes, 2nds or bench at best. Sully deserves a fair shot at the possie

 

[Outlaw Pete]

Unfortunately with the total crap recruitment of forwards will this make any difference?

Both Amone and Sullivan played well the last time we played the Titans. In a way they are still a little green but in my opinion, it wont take long for them to shine IF they get plenty of game time together in first grade.

Yes, my biggest concern for the year is the lack of forward power that we need to take control of games up the middle and on the edges. Once we can get those guys, not the Woods type but the NAS type, then we will have a chance to make a grand final which should be the aim of the club.

Club needs to stand him down themselves

I totally understand the sentiment but the kid is entitled to the presumption of innocence. Besides the moral high ground & professional sport never mix. If a player is available & can help win games he’ll always get picked regardless of off field issues.

Couldn’t get over Riccios comment on NRL tonight that Amone was by far the best of Sloan /Bud & him. This is based on Buds one game at 7 !

 

[Mr Angry]

You either follow the law or make your own Shyte up.

I follow our laws. Kid is free to play.

Richie's footy iq is about negative 200 has no idea about footy

Meant Riccios apologies autocorrelation cut in

Amone should be presumed innocent unless the legal system finds otherwise, Any suggestion to stand Amone down would cause unrest within the squad.

The prosecution must have found something in their evidence that warranted their change of direction.

I'd say, the only way to avoid situations like this is to:
1. Have players contracted to the NRL rather than to Clubs.
2. Have Clubs rent players from the NRL under a salary cap system.
3. Have Clubs, through an auction process, select players to rent form the NRL.
4. Have all new players (mainly development players) contracted by the NRL and the junior development Club compensated for their work.

The NRL Rent Boys?

 

[possm]

The NRL Rent Boys?

Yes we want to rent, not buy.

 

[The Silverdale Phantom]

The reason provided by the NRL doesn’t cut it.

He almost killed someone.

No limits apparently. Do what you want.

Another reason why the public think us footy fans following our guys are dickheads.

Excuses for this kind of thing, pathetic.

 

[dragon thomo]

I don't agree this time Possm, yes I normally believe in presumption of innocence but surely no-one could mistake it if someone was allegedly chasing a person with a hammer.

You answered your own question by using the word allegedly.
