Melbourne Storm alleged incident

The NRL has been made aware of a video on social media that allegedly shows Melbourne Storm players in a room where there is a white substance on a table.

Nine journalist Danny Weidler tweeted, "(it's) too early to say investigation launched", but the integrity unit has been notified.

"Having seen the video it's not a great look," Weidler said.

"Another concern is they have been betrayed by people in the room with them."

News Corp reports the video shows two Storm players in a room which has at least six people in it, including the person filming.

The Storm were bundled out of the premiership race on Saturday in a 10-6 loss to Penrith.

So alleged white powder, not a good look but surely no more punishment than a confirmed positive in last years GF

I think they’ll face their harshest punishment from the Club than anything else

What did Naden get, 4 weeks? That appears to be the standard now. From memory he got lucky as the ASADA rules changed around the time of the incident, and therefore dodged a much heftier sentence.

Does any reasonable person give a f**k if someone wants to snort coke anymore?

I agree. They should be made play for the Tigers next year.

Nothing story. It was flour.

Good point. PANTHERS.

But but PANFERS!!

 

[roofromoz]

Good point. PANTHERS.

Come on, get it right... PENRITH

 

[This Year?]

Move along nothing to see here.
It's not like they had a BBQ during lockdown and scattered when the cops came.

I assume not self raising as they were pretty flat on the weekend.

Can’t say I see a big deal if someone decides to consume it once in a while and is not addicted or dependent. More the issue of other illegal activities associated with the selling trafficking and proceeds

NRL players and phone cameras.

I challenge you to find a more iconic combo

Having all 16 NRL teams partying on the GC after the season is like all college goers in the US going on spring break to Florida or Mexico and year 12 going on schoolies up on the GC expect everyone bloody knows who they are.

What could go wrong

No-one cares if someone picks up a stray root during Origin camp either, but the NRL care about these things.

But Nathan Cleary taking a conversion five metres further in field will still the bigger scandal, somehow.

You know it “cost them the game” right?

It’s the same as when Critta allegedly put his foot on the touch line when scoring the opening try, which was later proven to be a misrepresentation of a photo sequence courtesy of certain Melbourne supporters on FB, when found that Critta’s foot brushed the touch line AFTER he had applied downward pressure, and the subsequent profound apologies from the same gronks later…

They probably didn't say anything on 360 because it's not confirmed what the substance on the table is

 

[stryker]

Lo

NRL players and phone cameras.

Loll they’re all such dumbarses..

Burden of proof and all that.

Could be ivermectin.

 

[Fangs]

The off season from hell begins.

Because people like Kent and Hooper are all about facts..
