I know someone posted earlier that Wes got into some serious trouble..... it's not good...but it isn't as bad as implied earlier.

Gotta feel for the bloke, he's gotta raise his younger borthers and sisters, pretty responsible bloke, not so drving without a license.

Another imbecile in the NRL.

Can't these players ever do the right thing???

 

[Big_Bad_Shark_Fan]

i hope saints suspend him for 5 matches so he can think about what hes done

 

[wittyfan]

Dousty will shell out one of his token $1000 fines.

 

[Lego_Man]

Count me in to the Covell Brigade BBSF

Its not his fault. He doesnt know the rules of australian roads

 

[hotsnow]

Perhaps if you actually read the article, Sully, you would see that they are not fining him. They are going with education on this one.

Really stupid of Wes

Beat me to it! :lol:

Another trip that gets him into trouble.

Ahhh, education this time.

It seems after an endless string of incidents, Dousty has finally decided that fines don't really work.

Exactly. A thread was deleted earlier because it without a source. Plus it sounded much worse then than the real story, it left it open to all sorts of speculation.

Thanks Copa for a posting the Couriermail link. But for the record, the story was already posted on League Unlimited before you started this thread.

All i saw was a channel 7 bulletin say trouble for the dragons as Wes was arrested last night in Kings cross. i Posted it but fair enough it was deleted.

Just for the record, Courier mail had the story before leagueunlimited

Before copa started this thread. Read what I said smart alec.

 

[Thunderstruck]

Beat me to it! :lol:

Another trip that gets him into trouble.

Oh man, :lol: :lol: how many weeks did he get for that one again?

 

[God-King Dean]

Can't comment on his driving ability, but just plain lazy of Wes not getting a licence

Can't see any harm at all in the club giving him councelling lesson

:lol: Threw the worlds smallest bit of bait and it got stuck

On wes, i feel for the bloke. He seems like a good guy working at the leagues club between training and stuff. Good to see a player take the extra responsibilty as he has kids to take care of.

Just an unfortunate incident.

 

[Willow]

Well in that case my smart alec joke wooshed over the top. :lol:

But back to the topic, its not what I would class as an unfortunate incident. No one forced him to drive unlicensed. He made a mistake but its a dumb mistake.

Hopefully he'll be wiser for it. He's young and therefore prone to mistakes. But by all reports, Wes is a decent bloke off the field and top player on the field.

Pfft, half the young blokes I know don't stop when they lose their licence. Doesn't make it okay, but it seems to be the norm for young 'uns today.

Sounds like Wes never got his, if he was disqualified 3 years ago for not having one.

Idiot.

Thank god he wasn't drinking. If he was I'd be worried about losing him to the Bulldogs.

 

[Sun_Down]

Oh no...is he going to miss any matches?

Ignorance of the law is no excuse. Ask any Magistrate. Besides it would appear he has been charged before so how could he not know?

Anyone who drives without a licence is risking being wiped by any insurance company the owner of the vehicle may have a policy with. Wez needs to be informed of the dire consequences if he was, for example, to have a collision with another vehicle or worse still a pedestrian.

Clubs need to identify young blokes who have problems like Wez's. Were they aware he had transport problems? Did they bother to find out? These blokes are expected to be at training venues on time. In the case of St George/Illawarra they train all over the place including the gong and Cronulla. You wouldn't be relying on the trains would you?
