Madge " If you are good enough player you can do as you please "

[BOZO]

Ezra Mam was charged with driving under the influence of drugs and driving without a license
and his Gross Misconduct caused a little girl the trauma of the horrific impact crash and a fractured hip which will hospitalize her and sideline her from her every day little girl pleasures

The Broncos sacked Kevin Walters because he could not stamp his Authority on his players and replaced him with the so called hard edge Madge but as it stands Madge will not take a strong disciplinary stance to set an example to his playing group and change the Broncos Ill discipline culture . It appears the little girl casualty will be sidelined longer than the culprit Ezra Mam .

All we see here Madge is at that nothing has changed at Broncos culture because if you are good enough player you can do as you please

The following article explains the Hypocrisy by the Broncos management to sack Walters and Madges soft cock Disciplinary approach

The Mole: Broncos waste 'golden opportunity' as Ezra Mam told 'do as you please' despite serious charges​

Broncos coach Michael Maguire has missed a golden opportunity to show his players that the club needs to change its ways by not sacking star five-eighth Ezra Mam.

Mam injured two passengers in a car crash and subsequently failed two drug tests.

It's the latest in a series of off field indiscretions by the Broncos, who also crashed and burned on the field last season after making the 2023 grand final.
But Mam is a good player - so he has been spared the axe despite the serious nature of the charges.

He is currently in rehab and will be suspended and fined by the Broncos - but is that enough of a message?

"No, he hasn't (been sacked)," Maguire told 4BC Radio.

"We are working through things and I am working through with the organisation around the whole situation.
"We need to make sure we are slow about our decisions because we have to see everything for what it is.

"It's a big incident and it's not taken lightly, but Ezra is working on himself and making sure he is going through his process.

"We will need to connect with everyone who has been involved in that accident."

The NRL may still suspend Mam - but meanwhile the playing group sees that if you are good enough, you can do as you please.

The bit I just told you is false - this bit:

Ezra Mam was charged with driving under the influence of drugs

Allowing for the possibility you don't drive a car, and may never have thought about this: driving under the influence of drugs (or alcohol) means that your driving was impaired due to the drugs or alcohol you had in your system. In Mam's case there was not enough traces of drug in his system to prove that it played any part in the accident. He was charged for having drug in his system, but that is not driving under the influence (DUI).
I've explained this about 5 times so far on ST. Whatever.
By the way, how come no outrage over the Chooks haven't sacked Sandon Smith?

Thanks for explaining but it is also inexplicable to drive without a license and cause injury to others
And if the drugs in his system are not of affect to him Why is he in a Drug rehab ?
As for Sandom Smith or any other player that does the crime they should be made an example to their team mates and do the time

I actually feel for Smith, he's being charged with grievous bodily harm. Someone lost his little toe, but a child's broken hip is fine 🤷🏻‍♂️
No drugs/drink in his system and an true "accident".

 

[castle eagle]

the only way the donkeys would have sacked Mam was if he was a fringe first grader, expendable and easily replaceable.

Must have been a weird coincidence that he went straight into rehab after the crash then?? You certainly don't just end up on the wrong side of the road for no reason…

Your logic is impeccable.
Road accidents never happen unless someone is intoxicated.
And defendants never go to rehab, even if they have a drug habit, unless they were intoxicated at the time of the event for which they now have to face court (and their employer).
Therefore Mam was intoxicated at the time and that is why the crash happened.

As I say, your logic is sound, although the conclusion is wrong because neither premise is true.

Welcome back to the WHY IS IT SO time feathered friends
It is great to be back with you all this morning and I hope you are all well in your Eagle nest and free from Rehab

Why would any one need to Rush straight to Rehab ?
WHY IS IT SO as Professor Julius Sumner Miller would say


Reason for Rehab is the professional help that you get to improve abilities that you need to function properly in your daily life . For example Thinking properly and making the right decisions like not driving without a licence and having proper co-ordinational so you do not crash into people

The Mad Professor
No,,,No No this is not Des Hasler
It is Julius Sumner Miller

Lets talk facts...

1. Ezra was unlicenced yet driving a motor vehicle

2. Ezra was driving with drugs in his system - as proven by testing

3. Ezra was at fault in an accident where he crossed onto the wrong side of the road and crashed into another car thus injuring its occupants

4. Having recently completed an alcohol-fuelled phone-smashing tour of Bali (complete with proud selfies), Ezra rushes himself off to rehab and the Broncs come out 2 days later with a statement that "people make mistakes but have to own them. The big thing is if he owns where he is at. ...actions moving forward are very important. ...he is getting some help at the moment..."

5, NRL have chosen to not deregister Ezra

6. The Broncos have chosen to not sack Ezra

It seems that Ezra will cop a 12 week ban for contravening the NRLs illicit drugs policy and then be free to return in r13... this indicates that taking drugs, driving unlicenced and injuring members of the public is considered just 4 weeks worse than calling a bloke a monkey - which, given Spencers own heritage, was highly likely to be a poor choice of words rather than a hood-wearimg, white-alliance style racist attack...

Honestly, is there any wonder people have no faith in the NRL or clubs like the Broncs?

If Ezra was a sh^t player (which personally I reckon he is anyways) than I have no doubt that he would already be goooonski... instead the Broncs immediately went into list-protection mode and rushed Ezra into rehab for PR purposes...

Not that it matters because they are only kicking the can down the road imo and it will hopefully come back and bite them at the worst possible time...

Very logical post feathered friend
In the end All is what it is .
Maguire has not lost his Marquee player
He has lost more than that
Maguire has lost Credibility in what he was hired to do
and that was to Change the Ill disciplined Broncos culture by setting higher disciplinary standards

The NRL don't act before a matter's even been to court and he's actually pleaded guilty, ditto the club.
As to whether his crimes are bad enough to be sacked, obviously they are - if he was a low value player or if he was a high value player but the club wanted to use the cap space elsewhere, such as with the Dogs and JAC.
Look I totally get it, we'd all love to think he's a spoiled young high paid star with no care for anything but his own pleasure, and maybe he is. Also I get that he doesn't play for Manly, and yep of course we all hate the Broncos.
I'm not sure though why the Leniu incident has been brought up several times in this thread. I can only assume it adds another reason to why people hate him (Mam, not Leniu).

Pretty simple, I'll type slowly for you.
Leniu gets 8wks for a racial slur, which everyone agreed was fair.
Mam set to only get 12wks for what he did.
Compare the pair.

But keep being you, keep angling.

The NRL have already stated they will NOT deregister him...

For mine it is brought up for a couple of reasons...
1. Regardless of whether he goes on to be a legend of the game THAT incident will be what Ezra is immediately associated with...
2. Ezra chose not to accept ANY middle ground with THAT incident - ie. He did not speak to Spencer in private and give him the opportunity to rectify any hurt caused but instead chose to make a formal complaint immediately and would not accept any approach by Spencer to apologise/discuss...
3. Spencer got 8 weeks foa a single word and now Ezra will likely get 12 weeks for breaking NRL rules, breaking laws and iphysically njuring people

Ezra would not accept any mitigation for a minor racist comment (and it WAS minor in terms of racist attacks) but now is being protected and runs off to rehab to mitigate punishment for his own actions...

I am not sure why anyone is surprised that a great deal of people have no faith 1in Ezra, the Broncs or the NRL...

For the record, I would be just as p*ssed if Manly acted like this - eg. Signing Matt Lodge was a disgusting lowlight in our history...

 

[frank stokes]

the only way the donkeys would have sacked Mam was if he was a fringe first grader, expendable and easily replaceable.

They are "in the window", have not won a premieeship for 20 years and will sell their own mothers (or sell-out club legends even) to make this squad work...

F*cking Ezra off would have led to a revolt from all his whiny lil insta-tok friends in the squad...
