COACH STERLING said:
OK - hypothetically speaking, lets say he gets the sack tomorrow and ends at the Broncos, timmy news club helps him through it and then he has a blinder winning the dally m's and taking out the comp.
Would it be right to say that Parra would have made the wrong decision given the fact that we didn't even help him?
In my opinion, yes.
If we did tear up his contract (theoretically), he would no longer be a part of the club - but the bonds he made with the club wouldn't be broken overnight. I feel that they would owe it to him, as decent human beings (presumably) to give him a hand.
Obviously, the club has been seen to have tried to have helped him recently. But alcoholism is an addiction that takes a while to topple - it takes time, effort, discipline and even sometimes tough love.
As eela said - the club had a golden opportunity last week to really put their foot down and genuinely start helping the lad, but they dropped the ball.
