Whats the gamble?
good player

it would bring?

blah blah blah at least he wasnt beating on his missus, kicking someones head in like Cockayne or any other of the much worse offences than this.
Its only so famous because its so outright ridiculously stupid.

One stupid decision and someones going to pick up a very good player for peanuts

not sure it would. Gazza does it here, and its an "hilarious anecdote" he is telling Jonathan Ross. In fact, had it not been now, in the NRL, i doubt it would be an issue but the aussie press have painted themselves into a position where all NRL players must be angels and a witch-hunt starts for any transgressor, and the NRL themselves have become whipped into a ridiculous attitude towards its own players,

i really cant believe he is going to be fired for what is not a very funny one, but what is still a joke.


So yes, if we could swap him for Delaney I would take him every day of the week.

For me it's a massive over reaction, the gamble is obviously from the clubs and taking the flak from the [overreactionary press, personally i don't see a problem with him coming over. Like you said Dico the Cockayne incident SHOULD have resulted in a life ban for me, this is just bad taste horseplay.

Not only is he going to be fired but de-registered, WOW.
He may well be on a few managers lists, who'd be interested and would the holier than thou press in this country jump on the bandwagon and put off a few chairmen from opening their cheque books ?

I can understand sacking him if the Raiders are losing sponsors over it, fair enough.

De-registration seems a bit much IMO.

Has he committed a criminal offence? I dont really know the laws on this sort of thing.. as you do

I just read in one of the press releases that bestiality is not a criminal offence in Oz. I think it is in the UK although not sure.

No, no laws broken but i read certain sections in Oz want a new law introduced so that this would be deemed illegal in future.

Anyone going to show their true feeling on this?

What,that he is a sick b@5t@rd who should not be allowed to have any animals as pets,especially dogs.

I don't care. The dog probably enjoyed it anyway. I wonder how people would feel if it was a female International Netballer who was guilty?

Bring him over, sign him up. Australia's loss is our gain.

What a strange point of view.

Ever spent much time in the country?

It's a non issue. He was clearly just drunk and messing about. Went a bit too far and ultimately he's been badly let down by whoever decided to put it on Twitter.

Wigan would be the obvious destination if Hull Kingston Redcliffe aren't interested.

Finally someone with some sense.

Agree that the Aussie reaction is ridiculously over the top. He needs to move somewhere where he'll be low profile, ideally to Quins RL where he'll sadly be almost invisible to the British media.

He'd be a very good signing for someone.

An Australian player coming to this country in the prime of his career and who's actually played representative football in the last 12 months, would be welcome as opposed to some of the antipodean dross over here.

But should astonishing behaviour such as this warrant the inevitable pay rise he'd recieve moving from cash-strapped Canberra to a six figure SL contract he'd probably get.

Is this the player that had a ' relationship ' with an animal ?

Should fit in well at the crusaders

Whats he actually done?

Had an act of fellatio performed on him by a rough looking blonde bitch.

Non issue,surely you are joking,it does not matter if he was drunk or not,I must admit I am quite surprised that some people see it as a joke or messing around,we have some strange people on this forum.

When he crashes over for a try will they play "Dog days are over" by Florence and the Machine over the PA?
