Adam Johnson has been found guilty of grooming an underage girl for sex.

Aaron Hernandez is in jail for murdering someone.

Having a dog lick your junk, pissing in your own mouth, shitting in a hotel and pretending to f**k a dog seems a little trivial doesn't it???

I don't quite understand your point. So....2 blokes get convicted of criminal offences and have been (or will be) sent to prison....nobody is suggesting that Pearce or Carney be sent to prison.

Hitler / Stalin killed millions of people. Does that make Johnson and Hernandez's offenses seem trivial?

So.....if a player is out of the game it would be ok for him to pass on information to punters / bookmakers?

Of course, that is not what Corey was doing, but that is the problem with not controlling communications during a game.

Of course i would not condone this..but lets be honest he was more than likely just texting his family. I think its just more so annoying the fact the media wants to beat this up when there is no evidence of anything sinister behind this.

Just quoted for truth.

Criminal acts should be dealt with by the courts
Behavioural acts which bring a sport into disrepute should be dealt with by the sports governing body in the fashion they see fit

Pearce is allowed to carry on like a tool, but people need to stop blaming the guy who filmed him. He didn't make him do it. And if players act inappropriately then they should cop it.
Face the facts, he knows he did the wrong thing and has copped it sweet!

For sure. I'm not having a go at Corey. I'm just suggesting that the lack of a process / protocol covering this is going to blow up on the NRL (and possibly some innocent players) one day.
