NRL Players and family members in hot water

[Organix]

That makes it sound like they are going to torture anyone they question...

Doesn't it?

Yeah total sham that they can force people to answer questions. They'll just ask 1000 questions in roundabout ways to make sure whoever they want to incriminate will basically say enough things to build a case against them, whether they're innocent or not. Instead of you know, actually doing their job and finding evidence.

Who's egging on the Cowboys this weekend?
Sorry...

Match fixing is a serious offence, but so is the taking of performance enhancing drugs

In both cases one or more people on a team is attempting to influence the outcome, illegally

I applaud the life ban stance (if it's actually implemented) but why a life ban for one offence and 2 years (or 3 weeks) for the other?

Because one affects betting, and that's all the NRL cares about these days.

Foxsports reporting that one of the Cowboys' Egging 5 is Taumalolololo.

I think a 2 week suspension is the perfect punishment.

Taumololo charged by police

Because gambling is an addiction. Once it has you, once you're in so deep that you have to fix a match to get yourself out of trouble, you're already tarnished and can't be trusted.

As opposed to professional athletes with a competitive edge and a win-at-all-costs drive. Once they have been caught once for cheating or bad play they always see the error of their ways and reform completely. Like that Sharks player who tried to rip the stitches out of another guy's head. Or that NSW Origin player who punched someone in the head unprovoked. Or that Cronulla player who pulled out the racist jokes to put the opposition off. Or that guy from the Shire that plead guilty to taking a banned substance. Or the one who was dobbed in by a third-party sponsor for receiving cash payments outside of the cap. Totally reformed.

If they've got any brains, they'll run with the "I'm innocent" line, get it put off until December and then quietly plead guilty and make it go away.

 

[Morkel]

Egging cars. How juvenile. I haven't done that since I was like 29.

That only works for less serious charges, such as cocaine possession.

 

[tommy]

The funniest thing is pretty much everyone in Townsville is a cowboys fan. There is like a %100 chance that the cars he egged were his own supporters.

Also use the Jennings defence and the arresting police are racists.

 

[BRC088]

Had my car egged, cost over a grand to fix, the things shatter your paint.

 

[Sproj]

Well I wonder if they used 'hot water' on the eggs before throwing them?

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Watch the slap on the wrist. Can't be harming the precious Cows back to back chances now can we

 

[mitch222]

This is pretty pathetic and childish from the cowboys players here. They should be sat for a week to teach them not to act like kids. They are paid fucking athletes for **** sakes. Start acting like it

IMO the NRL are riding the Sharks and Raiders fairytales harder.
