Yeah, Simona was sacked deservedly so. I am not on here calling for people to go easy on him. He shouldn't be allowed to play ever again. Tigers have enough problems without players betting on the opposition. lol

Mate I was joking.

Simona was responsible for himself - you can't blame club culture on that one.

There is no basis (yet) to blame club culture on this one. There is a positive result on one individual. Completely different circumstances to the Sharks hiring Dank and letting him run amok unsupervised.

You can't prosecute without evidence. Further to that, there is no benefit to injecting it into the vein (for the record, they can inject into the vein but no more than 50mL in a 6 hour period).

Unrelated, but how bizarre to inject another animals blood into your veins. Unless it makes you grow an extra dick, what is the appeal

 

[Quicksilver]

These things do seem to keep happening at the Sharks though, why is that?

you tell us? It’s your hypothesis.

Mate, you are probably right, I'm sure you can see how this looks to people who are less involved with the club than you are?

No idea mate, I just want these issues to stop, especially at the Sharks who I have a soft spot for.

 

[carcharias]

They aren't ex sharks players though who have a history with ASADA.

I feel certain the sharks board are filthy with him.

He is a commentator now..that’s his job.
Same as Cronk or Sailor etc.
The Sharks CEO also asked the same question in the press conference yesterday .
It’s a fair question
Why did it take so long to announce it?
If they were trying catch others it is a dangerous thing to do.
Xerri could’ve injured another player at training when he should’ve been serving a ban.
Imagine that?

That’s what Gallen was saying.

The way things look and the way things are can be two different things entirely.

You’re just encouraging tabloid garbage the more you buy in to vagaries.

I'm not involved at all. Its just that I see Hooper and Kyent beating the tired ol drum saying the sharks should have known cos he suddenly turned into the incredible hulk, surely someone in the club would've known, culture because of ASADA.... blah blah blah. Pure speculation and trying to implicate club management. Probably defamatory too.

I mean what the hell does salary cap have to do with this? Just more of an opportunity to sling mud.

Mate i just don't think it did your club any favours.

If you are happy with it so be itm

It’s not the question just the bloke who asked it?
Ok

I get people don’t like Gallen.
It is a fair question though.

As a supporter of the club you are more involved than I am, I couldn't tell you what staff are still at the club since their last issues. All I know that this list is starting to get quite long at the Sharks.

 

[betcats]

I dont think you can use the incident as a way to say there is something wrong with sharks culture, in particular if there is any truth to hoopers story that he has been doing it since juniors(or whatever hooper claimed).

Im not going to bash the sharks based on the limited info we have. I think its very possible they have cultural issues but that is based on the fact their leaders until last season were flanno, Gal and to a lesser extent Fifita. Throw in duges and Barba and you are very likely to have some issues within the squad and you have a number of senior players who are wankers(or worse). But that was before Xerri's time and dont think those issues(if there ever were any) would still be affecting the club.

Don’t forget it was the Sharks themselves who reported the salary cap issue.
In doing so they gave up the coach for sending naughty emails.

I bet there will never be another Self reporting footy club in the history of the game now.

look at bloody Wayne Bennett
Failed to report Cody Walker for the off feild thing about a week ago.
How much other stuff doesn’t get reported.

my team is just the best at getting caught.
Full pro level.

 

[bad boy bubby]

Hooper went on about Xerri having done this thing for a while, then says there is cultural issues at the club
Um oh shiny head, if he's been doing it a while wouldn't you think there is a cultural issue in his families home

Lol Maybe that is exactly it. Maybe the Sharks are just bad at cheating.

Looking at his brother leads me to think this might be the case.

 

[Generalzod]

The deflecting and mental gymnastics in this thread is incredible to see.

Coming from a Storm supporter definition of hypocrisy...

theyre pretty good at cheating, they’re particularly bad at not getting caught.

Yep it is the bloke who asked it. That might not be fair but it's the way it is.

He (along with Flanagan) was the face of the peptide scandal. For me it just wasn't a wise move.
