Isn't Moylan their Captain lol....Lord help us..That vacant facial expression of his always gave me the impression he possessed a single digit IQ God love him.

Hmm, that is big for them. Might have to change my tips...

That said they have alot of backline depth in their ressies squad.

Hey no one is complaining that we should have kept Peta Hiku!

 

[The Who]

Being stuck in Melbourne overnight would turn anybody to drink!

Wow, Moylan, that's massive.
I wonder if @Jax24 can shed any light?

Hiku was just supporting Snake's Melbourne restaurant venture

It's certainly there sometimes but it's not nearly as bad as the stupid face Mitch Pearce pulls out. Particularly in interviews when he's glancing across the room, taking long pauses and "aaaaaghinngg" at every footy legend or journo holding a mic to him like they're some peasant or annoying kid. Can't stand his arrogant drawl like he's trying to be cool but it just sounds like he never gives a sh*t and he's too cool and that pretty different to his dads intense stare

Give him a break. He's just looking around for love, hoping it will walk through the door. Too bad he didn't see the "no dogs allowed" sign out the front.

Hey @wombatgc I don't really have much info regarding this situation. From what I do know is it was a case of the players breaking curfew after their game. Sounds like they just had a late night out "enjoying" themselves lol. I did see Cheyse Blair post a pic of him and Peta on IG in what appeared to be a social setting. Maybe they got together for a catch up as well possibly. Maybe they all went to see Snake at his restaraunt too lol.

In all seriousness though I can't really confirm or deny anything. I can however say while I might be a tad disappointed in the nephew, I'm sure he will learn from it. He is young and has never had any other off field incidents so hopefully it's the only one. In the bigger scheme of things there has been many players involved in much more serious incidents than this off the paddock. Some even currently a part of our team.

Thanks @Jax24 I probably shouldn't have put you on the spot like that. But I have always respected your honesty and discussions around Peta.

Thanks @wombatgc!!! Yeah in all honesty I think it was just a breach in curfew as i mentioned and nothing more serious or sinister. They were only dropped for one game so that also points to it most likely being the case as well.

If anything the most disapointing part of it all was their Captain Moylan was part of it. While I understand no one's perfect and we all make mistakes, it doesn't set a good example.

Anyway on a positive note it's great to see our team starting to build some momentum and heading in the right direction. They seem to be forming a great chemistry together and legitimately playing for and trusting in each other. They also appear to be really enjoying themselves as well. Winning cures everything as they say lol.
