NRL Players and family members in hot water

Hayne used to seem like a good bloke, even for a NSWelshman. These days, he just seems like a jerk who pulls the religion card in a similar way to Goodes and the race card.
 
Hayne’s manager Wayne Beavis said today the star didn’t realise Bloomfield was a Hells Angels bikie and simply bumped into the alleged standover man at a party.
“I’ve spoken to Jarryd and he said ‘it was just beers with the boys’,” he told the Daily Telegraph today. “The money’s not his, he would ever be walking around with five grand in his pocket.
“He says he doesn’t even know the bloke. They aren’t even mates. He just happened to be there.”

Sounds legit.
 
I've got no reason to think it's not legit. He's an jackass, but he doesn't come across as an idiot.

Ok, so he just bumped into this bloke and had know idea that he was a criminal (even though he has previously been warned by the integrity unit about hanging out with criminals) and he was just like "How bloke I don't know, here's $5K, may god be with you"?

Anyone have a leather a jacket I can borrow? I'm heading to Hillsong!

Reports state the $5k wasn't his. Why would I believe otherwise? Why would I believe an NRL player with a bank account would be carrying around $5000 in cash to go for beers?
 
In the video Bloomfield say Haysey gave him 5k

Yet Hayne says who carries 5k in their pocket.

ummm

Remember Hayne etc being shot at in Kings Cross.


AUSTRALIAN rugby league star Jarryd Hayne was one of three players involved in a shooting in the early hours of yesterday morning shortly after being refused entry to a nightclub in Sydney's red-light district.

Hayne, along with two other Parramatta Eels players, Junior Paulo and Weller Hauraki, were turned away from The Vegas Hotel in Kings Cross about 3.45am after staff believed the three were drunk.

The three are understood to have headed instead to a nearby McDonald's restaurant and NSW police are investigating whether the players were involved in a fight that subsequently spilled on to the road.

About half an hour later, an unidentified man is believed to have fired a single shot at the three after a brief argument in a nearby street.

So Bloomfield's lawyer has a different take on the story.

But Bloomfield's lawyer Adam McGill has told the ABC Bloomfield was a former professional rugby league player and had become friends with Hayne through football.
He said the pair were just catching up and had not seen each other for a long time because Hayne had been playing overseas.
'It's very, very innocent'

Mr McGill said the money in the video did not show anything illegal being carried out.
"That's just the boys being the boys and a bit of tomfoolery," Mr McGill said.
"I think it was a bit of showboating on Chris's behalf, but there was certainly nothing illegal or sinister in relation to the money, they were just showboating.
"At that stage they had all been drinking and like a lot of Australian males they tend to put on a bit of a show.
"Obviously it was Jarryd's money, Chris got it and he was just making light-hearted comments in relation to 'this is what he gave me'.
"He never gave him the money, he just gave it straight back to him."
Mr McGill said it was only an issue because Bloomfield was a member of an outlaw club.

Maybe he wasn't going for beers but was more into rum and coke?

Well you never know, he may have wanted a packet of chips or nuts with the drinks. Those don't come cheap and also turning water into wine isn't cheap you know.

That's a big accusation, prepared to back it up?

It was a joke actually, but I'll delete the post. My mistake, clearly there is nothing suspect about a guy giving a member of Hells Angels $5K. Especially not a member of Hells Angels that he had just met, even though that person claims to have known Jarryd for years.

Fully legit.

[FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]AT least a dozen Titans partied with Hells Angels bikie Chris Bloomfield at the Gold Coast Turf Club on Saturday, before continuing celebrations at a player’s home.

Code-hopping star Jarryd Hayne, club captains Will Zillman and Nathan Friend, Greg Bird, Luke Douglas, Zeb Taia, Chris McQueen, Nene MacDonald, Nathan Davis, Matt Robinson, Daniel Mortimer and Matt Srama were all seen at the races with Bloomfield.
The bikie was seen entering and leaving a private suite booked by Titans players and joking with several of them in the corporate area where they bought drinks and placed bets.
Gold Coast Turf Club interim chief executive Richard Towson confirmed the Titans players attended the race meeting.


“They arrived after lunch and left at around 5.30pm,” he said.
“They were really well behaved.
“I couldn’t say a better word about how well behaved and polite they were on the day.”
The players left the races on a bus and a group that included Bloomfield went to Macdonald’s home.
A video emerged that night of Bloomfield flashing a huge wad of cash, saying “Sweet. Haynesy just gave me five grand” and the pair enjoying listening to Eminem’s Lose Yourself together.

Haynes yesterday released a statement saying, “This money was not mine.”
“This was a prank initiated by Bloomfield and was not intended to be taken seriously.”
The Gold Coast’s top bikie-busting detective expressed dismay yesterday at the footage, saying “(Hayne) is a big commodity in this city and people look up to him and it’s really disappointing to see him associating with people involved in criminal motorcycle gangs”.


Taskforce Maxima acting detective senior sergeant Nigel Bull said sports stars needed to avoid being unintentionally used by gang members who wanted to be photographed with them because it was good for recruitment.
“They get the notoriety and it’s good for recruitment and it’s good for their PR,” he said.
“These pictures of sports stars next to Hells Angels colours increases their value and makes them a better commodity.
“You know, it’s, ‘I will go and join the Hells Angels because I might get to party with the Hayne Plane’.”
Mr Bull said Taskforce Maxima would officially investigate the footage of Hayne and Bloomfield, a former under-20 Titans player.
NRL sources said the game’s integrity unit was already investigating Bloomfield’s links to top-flight players after viewing several social media posts.
Hayne and MacDonald will be hauled before the NRL Integrity Unit and ordered to explain the incident.


The Titans yesterday said they launched an internal investigation and hoped the events of the weekend would not detract from a successful season.
“The Gold Coast Titans board and management make no criticism of our players for having end-of-season drinks, as is the tradition in many other clubs and codes, in a function room and then in a private home,” the Titans said in a statement.
“However, the club and our players have learned a powerful lesson from this event. As a direct result the club will be seeking briefings from senior Gold Coast police involved in the crackdown on bikies.
“We will put in place a structure so that our players are better equipped to distance themselves from individuals who seek to associate with them.”
The Titans said the event was not isolated to their club.
“The Rugby League Players Association in conjunction with the NRL have been very strong in relation to educating and protecting players from external influences which could reflect badly on them and the game. We are co-operating with the NRL Integrity Unit and the RLPA in this regard,” the club said in its statement.
“The Gold Coast Titans have made enormous strides on and off the field and we take how we are perceived very seriously. We have worked very hard to develop a team that this city can be proud of.
“The events on the weekend should not detract from what has been a very successful 2016.”

Tom Tate (mayor of Gold Coast if you don't know) is basically blowing up about the media and defending Hayne saying he knows him and I believe what he says etc. Watch how long it takes Tate to drop Hayne if he is infact found of wrong doing.
 
Titans player Karl Lawton was arrested on Monday by Gold Coast police and charged with assault

THE Gold Coast Titans have been rocked by another Mad Monday scandal following the arrest of one of their young players.

It follows the revelations and video footage of superstar Jarryd Hayne in the company of Gold Coast bikie Chris Bloomfield last weekend. The player involved this time is rookie Karl Lawton who debuted in the NRL in round 17 against the Warriors but dislocated and fractured his ankle. Lawton was arrested on Monday night by Gold Coast police and charged with assault. “We are aware of the incident,” said a Titans spokesman.

“As far as we know this was a family domestic matter between two males.
“As it is now a police matter the club will be making no further comment.”
An NRL spokesman confirmed the Titans had informed the integrity unit and were waiting for further details.
Talk about bad timing. Gold Coast Titans chief executive Graham Annesley has been in London all week attending a wedding. He was in transit and powerless to act when Hayne was caught in the company of undesirables on the Gold Coast and again while police were acting on Lawton.
