No, but he probably cares about what it does to Rugby League - ex-player or not.
Oh exactly. I'm sure everytime something like this - or an alcohol related incident - happens he thinks "bloody hell, another moron I have to talk about".
Look, Gallup is aware that there is a problem, that I know. And the league want to stop these things. That I know too. But if they are unable to stop these things I bet all they want is for people to not get caught. Minimising the damage to the game is his issue. And if minimising the damage means saying that someone did wrong, then that's what they have to do.
But, my comments were about the footy show. Sure, you can say that if they defend Joey it is totally because of their "protect the game, old boys" agenda. But maybe they just don't care about players taking social drugs.
I can see where eela is coming from. I understand that if they say "it's not his go" that you might decide that you've heard enough bs from that show, but I for one won't be tuning out because if that. I was more likely to give up watching it if they continue with crap anti-ads and the like.
