After hearing more on the story I sort of agree with you that it isn't as bad as first thought, although the headlines are rightfully damaging. He was obviously caught with his pants down left and with few options. What a horrible situation to be in and when you've got to go, you've got to go. Julian O'Neill obviously planned his turd, Myles was left stranded.
But the fact is they were most probably pissed and making a racket at 4am in the morning, forcing people to complain. Stuff like this is bound to happen.
I think complete embarrassment in public situations from now on will far outweigh any suspension as the greater punishment for Myles into the future.
Imagine if the CCTV footage got out.
This is rugby league, there's every possibility.
He had to be suspended and the Roosters as a club need to flush out the crap (pardon the pun). If they do end up signing Todd Carney they might as well pack it in. I have faith in Steve Noyce and I doubt he will do that.
The NRL went on the front foot by outing the story ASAP. This stopped the rumours and the journo digging. The complaint from the hotel went straight to the NRL and they acted immediately because they knew they had no other alternative.
Had the hotel complaint gone straight to the AFL there would be no story, because the AFL would be confident enough to keep it under wraps in the knowledge that the Melbourne media wouldn't go digging on any rumours that may be out there.
Apparently Tracey Grimshaw will be conducting a hard-hitting interview with Myles tonight on ACA about 'that crap'.
Myles will be refusing to answer any questions on the night as a whole and will only talk about the crap itself.
Should be one of Grimshaw's toughest assignments.
look mate i know you love your league but this is an absolute shocker. myles should be punted no questions, his cover up is going to make it look even worse. most pathetic story i've ever heard
what did o'neill get for shatting in schlossys shoe?
It's a conspiracy.
AFL players sh*t it the hallway at 8am all the time and it's literally swept under the carpet.
True, and I guess with the Tuquiri getting the arse and the actual reason not being made public, we can safely assume that of the three codes, only one has anything that resembles transparency....
But the turd has offered itself for interview, for only 15k...
Bit hard not to when your phone rings with another crap story.
What can be hidden, is and will be - holds true for sport, business, politics & religion.
The best thing the NRL/Easts have done this time is come out with the story,penalty & consensus in one hit. That way, the story does not become a week long saga.
That's not transparency - but it is good media management. Get it all over and done with in one hit.
An AFL mole spiked his food/drink with laxative - oldest trick in the book.
That's the real story here folks.
FFS you no nothings who are claiming he was still suffering the effects of his stomach bug, that was well over a week and a half ago. He'd have been well and truly over it so can that defence.
How the f**k would you know, are you his small intestines?
