Oh , so everything is ok then.
I imagine he was singing lullabies while inside.
No, you merkins obviously have a problem either reading, comprehending, or retaining information. Go back and read what I wrote earlier.
His actions were reprehensible, idiotic and irresponsible and deserved to be punished. He has been punished for his criminal actions and fully complied with what he was required to do under the plea agreement.
He has been out of the NRL for approaching 2.5 years. Since October 2015 he has taken large steps to rehabilitate himself including anger management and alcohol classes. He has not touched alcohol. He has been of good behaviour and he has participated in presenting education classes to kids.
Given the precedent that the NRL has set in other cases, like Packer, Wicks etc, he was able to apply to be re-registered and has done so. The NRL, with full knowledge of his history has approved that.
If you do not think he was adequately punished, your compkaint lues with the Manhattan DA's office. If you do not think it is aporopriate for people with a history like Lodge, Packer, Wicks etc coming back to the game your complaint lies with the NRL.
If you think it is okay for Packer and the others to come back but not Lodge, you are a hypocrite and it is because of who he has been signed by. It really is that simple.
