True. However who gave the dog "Mark Miler" the right to post it?
mark did . ok . everyone has that right. public area=public property ;-)
I genuinely don't understand the mindset of some of the people on these boards, they are more pissed off at the person that leaked the photo than the person that brought the game into disrepute yet again.
Seriously Carney has had more chances than anyone in the history of rugby league yet time and time again he has continually bit the hand that feeds him. I hope he is denied a visa and prevented from going overseas so he is forced to get a regular job, he needs to understand that being a professional athlete is a privilege and that the Raiders, Roosters and Sharks fans he has spat in the face of deserve better.
, what job could he do , a circus act job . toilet cleaner . carney was in the aussie kangaroo's team . now in spasaroo's :lol:
If the reports in the paper from the NRL regarding considering not registering a contract for Carney with any other club is true then the NRL then I think this is a serious turn of events. One that we shouldn't blithely ignore either.
Now let's believe Todd for one minute and accept that the "bubbling" photo is one of those "leaning tower of Pisa" photos or planking where a picture is designed to look like something it's not.
In that context what we have is a harmless prank among mates that managed to make it's way into the light of day. Embarrassing for the Sharks maybe - but surely sacking someone based on a trial by media without hearing what the people involved have got to say and without the full facts - surely has the potential to be more embarrassing to the club than a prank photo.
Now the Sharks probably do want to look at their "culture" and try and decide who they want to represent their club - but sacking someone in this manner is not the way to start a culture change. It smacks of desperate acts by a desperate club that are basically clueless and are happy to remain so.
I hope the NRL seriously looks at all aspects of this case before talking any further about blocking Todds future in the game.
fully agree , but other players have had 6 . 7 . clubs before
Public change rooms and public toilets.
only cretins would have their phones out in these circumstances considering the image and video capturing capability of them these days. I don't care if the young folk of today have these devices glued to their hands 24 hours a day, have some f**king respect and etiquette for other people in these circumstances.
most people have pic phones now. so they are all cretins . wheres the video phones ;-)
Yes its stupid. Would I want it associated with my club? No.
But Todd hasn't gone out to harm the Sharks or posted something stupid on social media himself. Surely suspending him, docking his pay and taking him to counselling were all options open to the club. Todd Carney has a right to behave in a manner Cronulla finds appropriate and as employee Cronulla have a duty of care for Todd Carney.
Cutting him loose and saying you're on your own wasn't a good move.
Now it may be the case that had Cronulla listened to Todds side of the story they would have reached the same conclusion and it probably would have been the likely outcome and one I would respect. But to act with partial facts based on a media storm shows a distinct lack of leadership in my opinion and I have little respect for the current Cronulla board for their actions here.
You never make a decision in anger. The Croulla board did exactly that.
i agree aswell . should have waited . and taken the time to hear carneys story . not just a media kneejerk reaction , sharks could have use the situation in better ways , carney cam
mate...this has been coming for a while.
