I didn't mean it was a mistake to be sarcastic. I meant it is a mistake to think everyone will find it as funny and harmless as you meant it.

| I can’t remember the players apologising to the wider public? I suppose it’s good enough though and at least it wasn’t swept under the carpet. I hope a certain prop realises how lucky he’s been. He must be on his last caution now!

Depends if you think a Fifita apology is particular is worth anything, I’m not sure I do. That bloke has gone from hero to zero to me and frankly right now if anyone took him off our hands I wouldn’t shed a tear.
He now needs to have the season of his life in 2021 if he’s to undo the damage he’s caused to the club and even more so his own reputation.
There is still time for the Big Bopper to get that legendary status he seemed assured of only 18 month ago but not much.
Over to him but I won’t be holding my breath.

| Fifita's indiscretions will soon be forgotten if he produces on the field. It's just the way it is.
The same is the case in reverse unfortunately. If he doesn't produce, his previous great play will be overshadowed by off field things.
Its down to him now.

I'd just like to add that I think the way the club has handled this has been exemplary.
They reacted very quickly to unequivocally condemn such action, dealt with it promptly and firmly without doing their dirty washing publically. Cut off in the bud. Well done.

The way it’s been handled is fine.
My only concern is with a player who never seems to learn.
I don’t think players are roll models to fans, in anything but the widest sense. They are however when it comes to young players and senior players. I used to think Daves ebullient nature was a good thing but now we have seen the flip side.
It’s not what he does it’s the consistency in which he does at that makes it bad. Must be very hard to maintain club discipline with such a lose cannon on board.
We were all worried about Westerman when he signed but compared to Fifita he’s a model pro, or at the very least he’s more discreet. It amazes me what a big smile and a modest talent allows you to get away with.
I assume with him it’s a final warning? I equally assume that it’s a real one like you or I would get, which would allow us to sack him without compensation if he transgresses again? If not it’s fairly meaningless.

Yes I do, don’t you? Many fans do. He’s been shocking over the last 12 month.
But then you know that, your just peeved that I’ve beaten you to something you could beat the team/club over the head with, which is your normal agenda, you’re so transparent.
The attempt at humour, don’t give up the day job

| Just seems to be issue after issue with Fifita, most other players would be well gone by now.
I just hope he can knuckle down and have a good season on and off the pitch this season, at this point I would not be distraught if he went and in exchange we got 2 solid hard working props in his place.

| Just what are the issues. 8 know about the tag issue and now new years eve party but I can not think of anything ells.
I agree with his dip in form but you could say that about most of the squad last season, I hope he and the rest of the squad can hit top form and trturn to winning ways.

That first one alone led him to missing a substantial amount of the season, can you highlight any other player out of a pool of around 400 that refused to wear it?
There are more than you think, one of which I have not seen discussed on here but a lot of fans are aware of which was around the period I heard the club was looking for offload him, that obviously changed.

Yep that’s how I see it. Like it or not the day of the bad boy/maverick are gone, unless of course you’re still providing the goods.
I see no evidence that Fifita has the attitude or desire to get back to the player he was 2 years ago. I think people are pinning to much on this happening, maybe he will but does he strike people as the sort who can drop a grudge and knuckle down? Not to me he doesn’t.
So yes I’d take those two replacements all day long because I personally believe Fifita is a spent force. Those two hard working props would be far more useful than the player we have today.
Still hope I’m totally wrong and he bounces back but life’s taught me that some people never change. I’m now in the frame of mind with this player of what the hell is he going to do next.

I’m surprised an expert like you doesn’t recall numerous other incidents, one being a very high profile court case. If I recall this cost is his services for a while. Try doing some research.
There is of course the anecdotal evidence regarding his behaviour and the scrapes he’s been in. Even if you discount 90% of it, it’s still an unimpressive list.
On the plus side I can’t deny the mans also done some great stuff on and off the field but there comes a point where it’s no longer working, for both parties.

| Well the self appointed king of the forum has spoken. You seem to be the common denominator regarding arguments on the forum and I for one will not take part in your bile.
I recently challenged your superiority complex and noticed I did not receive a response and fully expected it would be put on the back burner for you to have a go on another subject not long after.
Sorry but it's not going to take much more of my time or effort, you sir are not worth either.
