Criminal element trying to associate with the game

[Pablo]

Amazing that if these guys are such bad doods, why the hell does Star Casino have them in their establishment.

To try an improve the 99:1 asian to non asian ratio

That's that's why I would have Ray Murrihy being somehow involved in the NRL. He is soon retiring as the chief steward in Sydney horse racing and he has stated he would like to work in another field. He would have dealt with those three footballers immediately instead of Greenburgs pussy footing around we have had lately.

The trouble is Greenslime is behest to the real power brokers, Nein & Fox.

He's a toothless tiger , in fact calling him a tiger isn't right either.

And just think, he's on about $900k a year, nice work if you could get it.

People we need to understand the NRL rulebook: dinner out with known criminals and drugs found on said person result in no sanction by the NRL. They are only concerned in those who are not "fit and proper" people who coach the SG Ball team. Only then they will step in.

Id love to know who Greenturd associated with during his stint at Doggies.

Rumour has it Obeid family weren't far away.

Exactly.

Here we have known and publicly available criminal associations, not whispers from a single person who can't reveal any sources, names, details, etc as in the Hoppa case. Plus we have here police charges for drug possession, plus official warnings about associating with criminals.

The whispers without charges for Hoppa are worth indefinite suspensions plus unlimited competition points deductions and the personal intervention of the Chairman of the NRL. The hard facts supported by verifiable evidence warrant no points deductions, no suspensions, no mention of bringing the game into disrepute, essentially no action. WTF? How about some consistency.

Fark me this has nothing to do with what Hoppa has done and continues to do. Really that is a p1ss weak comparison. Hoppa is a proven pig over many many years

I think most on here agree he's not the kind of person you want mentoring our young players.

I dont want him near the club yet alone our young, but "others" want him in the inner sanctum

I am trying to make a comparison between when the NRL steps in and when they don't. It seems that they will be very quick to step in when the public/commercial impact is to their bottom line is minimal.

 

[Karin]

Ok if you would prefer let's compare Wolfies suspension for his betting- yes it is wrong and yes it was correct that he was dealt with accordingly, bottom line is it was dealt with these indiscrecions have not.

It's cool we can agree to disagree. I will be upset that the NRL seems to turn the other cheek when Parramatta is involved and you can be happy for them....

Has nothing to do with any of that, you like to bring Hopoate into the debate, which has nothing to do with this at all. Hoppa is a pig. Nrl are grubs

All law abiding citizens no doubt....😕

As per usual it seems these days, the only time anything gets taken seriously is when 4 corners presents a hard hitting well researched presentation on the subject at hand. Until then it'll be business as usual.

On the gambling on league part, one night an old mate invited me over to watch a game between Manly and his team the Tigpies.

So I go over and have a feed and start watching the game and don't notice mate has got a piece in his ear. Through the game, nothing in particular happening, he starts saying "yes!". I asked him what is that all about?
Turned out (this was in the days of delayed telecasts) he is a mad punter and he had money on Manly to be ahead at half time, to win and first try scorer etc etc.
So there I was watching a game with a Tigpie supporter listening to a game a half an hour ahead of me, backing Manly to win.
That was it for me, sorry.

 

[rifraff]

i had a mate with an earpiece as well. Apparently he knew the cat would run away with the spoon before it happened as well.

Norman's court date is July 13, only then can we expect the NRL to sanction him.

According to Greenturd, the due process is the new timeline.

I'm surprised that associating with a criminal gang does not constitute a 'bringing the game into disrepute' 😎

The court matter is for the possession of an illegal substance, a totally different matter

Until Telstra, the major NRL Sponsor puts weight on the NRL to clean up their product, we will suffer these fools in NRLHQ 🙁

Rumour has it Obeid family weren't far away.

Careful Spud don't want to cast too many stones in our glass house. No guarantee that these grubs aren't getting their tentacles into our player group given previously reported associations
