Agree..The dirty cheating drug taking cheap shot thug.Come to think of it,i am sure he gave me the idea for my username.

Not defending Newton at all but its easy for people to kick a man while he's down. For me he played tough, sometimes he overstepped the mark but its a tough sport and you need players like that around, we don't want 17 robots.

Look at the excitement having a bit of BIFF back in our team has created!!
No doubt he overstepped the mark on occassions but you don't play 15 yrs in SL without being a very talented player. If he was just a thug he'd have been found out long ago.

As for the drugs, he's been stupid, not sure what he's supposed to have taken but he's been caught.

Interesting Cullen on the TV mentioning HGH, not sure if its this Newton has been on but I know the 'rumours' of players taking HGH has been around for at least 7/8 yrs!!

Its rife in SL and the NRL.

There's a difference between 'a bit of biff' and cowardly cheap shots. Newton falls very much into the latter category. And there's a whole spectrum between a 'robot' and a thug like Newton.

Wakey board or the VT please.
