It's patently ridiculous. I'm not a drug taker, and I'm sure it's addictive as f**k in the grips of it, but to lower yourself to a child sex line? To go along with it for that? To send the messages he did? I still call BS. I also refuse to believe drug dealers stopped working in lockdowns.
The most ridiculous thing about it is when you take Finch’s career circumstances into account. He’s an ex-footballer who had transitioned into media- I’d seriously be struggling to think of two professions outside of organised crime where you’d have easier access to cocaine supply. I certainly can’t imagine child sex offenders have better hookups because everybody hates nonces.

Knights have signed 2 young Poms, Pryce and Paul, will be interesting to watch, not sure if the Paul is any relation to Henry and Robbie, Pryce is the son of Leon Pryce

Cory Allen released from the Bulldogs and has joined the Roosters

Plenty of players still without deals for next year due to the time it is taking for the RLPA and NRL to get the CBA ticked off and a salary cap set for next season. Taupau one of them who says he has 5 clubs interested

Yeah Harris Tavita is taking a gap year. Id say its highly likely he'll be back in 2024, though not necessarily with us.

He strikes me as an incredibly emotionally intelligent young man, but also the kind of kid that would get home sick. He has a strong, supportive family and I think that's possibly what might keep him at the club. But the club needs to get it's shit together. I think I saw his old man lamenting the fact that CHT is constantly needing to adjust to new game plans and halves partners.

You know what Harris Tevita, you never have to play again, go surfing in France, or visit the Amazon.

Do what ever. I admire you for giving it up, for now at least.

Probably do some other kids well too.

I promote gap years for players.

I think he has broad interests and he's not sure football is the most important thing in his life.

Not sure about that, I read his blog and he was pumping Jordan Peterson ...

Haven't seen that and, tbh, I don't know enough about Jordan Peterson to have an opinion either way. But hey, at least he's reading. A step ahead of most of his team mates, I'd think

Unfortunately I know a fair number of reasonably smart young blokes who fall for his snake oil.
That sucks, I don't know many young guys to know if they're falling for his B/S. The only guy I know who properly fell down the rabbit hole was mid 30s Palestinian dude who has thankfully mostly come to his senses now.

No real surprise. Pretty sure I saw somewhere that he’s shacked up with the coaches daughter. He wasn’t going anywhere

Amone from the Dragons arrested for jumping on a tradesmans car then going at him with a hammer. All because he didn’t like where he parked his car
