Robbie Mustoe is the voice of reason. The hype and moral outrage flying around is a bit much. Unfounded allegations from a girl who went into a cubicle with 3 men shouldn't result in broncos fans booing their own team in the most important game of the year. If you support your team you should...

I am a telepathic alien sent here to enlighten you.

Pretty sure I saw that too. NRL Teams tonight anyway, so we'll see there. A statement will have to be made by the club this afternoon you would think?

Yeah but having the head of Queensland police come out and say it makes it a little more official haha. I'd go so far as to say the underlying tone of her statement was that she personally didn't want any charges to be issued!

The only thing that's not different is the principle - innocent until proven guilty. They should suffer no repurcussions of these ALLEGATIONS until they are proven, just as everyone is entitled to in all walks of life. It should be an open and shut issue. That is the point i was trying to...

Belinda Neal & John Dellabosca were allowed to remain in Government while under investigation for the Iguana-gate affair. They are public figures, just as the Broncos are. Why should these players be treated any differently?

Just read on rugbyleaguelive.com that all players will be playing this weekend, and the police investigation will take weeks. Looking good for 2008 finals campaign at the very least.

Yeah but where does consensual sex/gang bang fit in to it? The girl was up for it - let's not lose sight of that. Otherwise these players would have to live a life of celibacy.

This is true, and I appreciate this. But there is so much at stake here, and without criminal charges that result in a conviction I just can't see them being sacked. Regardless of sponsorship. Regardless of what some supporters think. They will be punished harshly through fines, reprimands and...

The names you mentioned are all in their mid thirties. Who knows what they were like when they were younger. Remember Hunt is only 21. He really wasn't doing anything A LOT of other guys would and DO get up to at any chance they can get.

Bit extreme I think. Look at all the garbage Ricky Ponting got himself into in his younger years and now look at the leader he has become. Don't forget the age of the players involved...

I do get it mate. But they aren't going to sack superstar players on the basis of an allegation, with no criminal charges brought against them, regardless of the heat it may bring from sponsors. At the end of the day the Broncos are the most commercially attractive club in the comp, and I doubt...

True, past hardline actions by the Broncos may leave them no other option than to sack them here. But these guys are integral members of the team so I would hope they hinge their punishment on the outcome of the police investigation and court case (if any).

As I have said numerous times: Good sized fines. Alcohol counselling Some sort of "respecting women" program They are adequate responses to what these guys have done.

Yes! Just as it was the same for me with the Anthony Laffranchi allegations and the Bulldogs allegations. Greg Bird was different as he actively sought to pervert the course of justice and lied to his club about what happened. It is unfair for someone to be fired on an allegation. Anyone could...

Yep, but don't sack them before they're found guilty. It's highly likely the charges if they are issued will end up being dropped or they will get off in court... and we will have lost our players. Pretty unfair. I agree that one of them is gonna cop the brunt of this here. I wonder who.

I would love to see that too. With the form he's been in lately it could be pretty wild.

It surely was a stupid thing to do - but really, is it a sackable offence. That is a massive punishement reserved for the worst offences, and so far this doesnt appear to be in the same league as belting a girl in the face, or glassing a girlfriend. It's a bunch of drunk young people (girl...

I would be happy for this to be handled the way the Laffranchi case was. Innocent until proven guilty and the players are kept opn the books at the club. From everything that's being reported it's highly likely they will be let off, that's if charges are even laid. They should be fined...
