Peter O'Sullivan

[Penrose Warrior]

Exactly,and Gallop should tell the Roosters he is banning him,and there is no place in our game for cheats,because clearly leaving it the Roosters is not going to work.

Course he should. He took it out of Manly's hands - based on some sort of guilty before proven innocent sort of scenario.

Seriously, where the f*ck is the independent commission. O'Sullivan should be gone this morning.

 

[Cliffhanger]

well he did have over 30 misdeamoners at the raiders before they sacked him.... dunno how he didnt get sacked for running off after that car crash leaving his teamate in the car.....:crazy:

it would be nice if the NRL had the balls to get rid of the scum in our game, they've questioned the role of certain player managers but are too pissweak to do anything about it.

I know it's not funny but for some reason the car crash story makes me laugh.

 

[Cliffhanger]

The chooks are are a class act, they would keep Hitler on as CEO if they thought it would give them advantage. They should have been chopped years ago, they offer the NRL nothing, yet they seem to run the NRL

Tell me what is it that all the other clubs are offering that we don't? I'm intrigued. I mean you can't possibly be that much of a moron that you would suggest the only club that's been there every year of the competition be kicked out without a good solid reason. I want to hear it.

I bet legally the NRL can not do a thing. He never put his signature on the
Stat Decs given to the NRL, though his finger prints were all over them. Whilst employed by the roosters he has done nothing wrong, so the Roosters would need to pay off the rest of his contract or face legal action. Are the NRL going to give the Roosters any compensation for this ?

:lol: wtf does the independent commission have to do with clubs employing off-field staff? Are you suggesting that the News Ltd conflict of interest is somehow responsible for Easts continued employment of O'Sullivan?

fmd some of the people on here are in for a rude shock when the IC comes in and doesn't magically cure every minor issue they have with Rugby League.

A minor issue? FMD in turn. You believe someone that was involved in the systematic rorting of the cap continuing to be employed in the same competition is a 'minor issue?' Being a Rorters fan I can believe that you actually probably would.

I have already said in this thread that I am uncomfortable with his continued employment. But it is absolutely laughable to suggest the IC would change anything in regards to this, or countless other issues that people cry "Bring in the IC! :crazy:" about.

"On legal advice there is no specific recommendation in relation to Peter O’Sullivan, just as we have not recommended the two former financial controllers be sacked by their current employers," NRL boss David Gallop said.

"The findings in the report relate to activities at the Storm and each party is now under an employment contract with another party.

"However, in relation to Mr O’Sullivan, that should not be taken to be the end of the issue.

"The report discloses serious and persistent past misconduct on his part and it would seem that he had not informed the Roosters of that at the time they employed him.

"We expect the Roosters to discuss with the NRL this employee’s future once they have digested the report. The findings against him are serious and cannot be ignored."

this part could possibly allow the Roosters to sack him without having to pay him out

 

[Penrose Warrior]

Fair enough, was probably a naive comment in that regard.

I don't understand why if Gallop has the power to overrule Manly on Gallop, why he can't do it with the Roosters on O'Sullivan? Surely the latter demands it even more so

looks like legal advice has told them they can't

 

[Cliffhanger]

Does anybody seriously believe the Roosters won't end up sacking O'Sullivan?

Noyce can't call the shots on his own, it's all really comes down to uncle Nice. FFS think.

Stewart is a player playing in the NRL competition...he has a more direct relationship with the NRL. It's really none of the NRL's business who the clubs employ in their off-field operations.

 

[sretsoor]

The Roosters have no legal grounds to sack him as the 'alleged' misconduct occured at a different club. If he is disbarred then that is for the NRL to do and the Roosters will have to comply. I dont see why the Roosters should have to pay $$$$$$ to do the NRL's dirty work.

Over all, it still seems sus that all the News ltd lacky's involved with the Storm squeaky clean (by a News Commisioned report and a NewsRL report) where all other parties there are to blame.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Actually you will find that is what most, if not all clubs do.

It's 2011, not 1971.

Other clubs don't pass them off as their own juniors dingleberry.

Exactly. You can't just sack a bloke for alleged offences. The NRL needs to grow a pair and give the roosters no reason but to sack him. There is no allegations that he has continued to use the same tactics at the chooks.

 

[Chook]

I hope Politis tells that pathetic news limited lacky Gallop to go f**k a dead horse. This gutless sycophant will do anything to take the focus away from his masters.

Chook.

And agree

I don’t want him there either but the roosters cant sack him for no reason and in the eyes of the law (as far as we know) there is no valid reason.

 

[matrightyeh]

yeh thats true bit of a shame

This. They've been deflecting any attention away from themselves, the owners of the Storm, from day 1.

He didn't crash the car. He got out of it at the end of a dead end road and legged it.
