Shows that the nrl is really trying to educate the players

This is why absolutely no one should feel sympathy for him and why he should cop it sweet.

No, I had a yellow GTS HQ 308 Monaro , bought it in 73 for around $4250, sold it in 75 for around $4000, seen it still going around , mint condition,probably worth around $100,000 now, but I never would have kept it in the same condition, I'm hopeless with cars and now only see cars as transport.

Cars as transport only...

I'm glad you sold that car,it would probably ruined completely by now but someone fell in love with it and looks after it

I tried to be like you, bought a Ford Ranger PK and hate it immensely, yes it's sufficient at transport and hauls my **** but it's financially unsustainable and furthermore no fun whatsoever

Why spend big dollars on something you can never enjoy, arguably you can never truly enjoy a car anymore but with this tough son of a bitch it's final, there's simply no fun to be had even in one's imagination, there's no personalisation to be done it's whitegoods on wheels

Also depending on matching numbers, condition etc you might even grab up to $300k for a top notch example

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Yeah, I would have killed him as well, you could say it is like being promised an 8'' dick, and then being shortchanged to a 6 incher, that way you're just like every other guy.

He was probably right, but I didn't think so at the time.

It took some time for us to be mates again.

Eerie, it's like Mitchell trained for the role he ultimately played.

"Wayne Johnston" is a obviously a method actor.

I'm still gobsmacked about Todd carney the journo! @SeaEagleRock8 he had good instincts on what to print.

That smh article is like something from the onion.

Haha when you mentioned the onion I suddenly feared I'd been had, had to double check
In fact, probably too far-fetched for the onion!

Wayne Johnson, eh?
I thought I heard Pearce say,
"Prompt, next line?"
during the Australia Day video.

 

[MadMarcus]

Wayne Johnson is the perfect alias for Mitch.

The "Wayne" is a reference to his famous father. The "Johnson" is a reference to the fact he's a dick.

It would be good to get a rooster number 7 jersey with Wayne Johnston on the back for any rooster fan mates out there.

Thats deadset hilarious. You couldn't make that s#!t up!

My old man did something similar (reneged on a loan) because the car had four more cylinders than he thought appropriate. It was death stares, no talkies, for a very long time.

 

[wombatgc]

I wonder if Brian Smith may just afford himself a little fist pump....Wayne f@cken Johnson....you ripper!

 

[wedgetail eagle]

Saw this one getting around.

Funny story

I've had someone i disliked mutually paralyzed due to owning an auto ford meteor,ok so not very funny but their parents didn't consider underpowered to be dangerous,equal blame go to the vehicle as the operator and in this case the morons who purchased it

You have to wait for a traffic gap the length of the bass strait to merge safely

I find those who lose control to be idiots, proper usage of the controls keeps everyone safe, unless oil or black ice is involved

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

On a positive note, Petbarn are rumoured to be seriously interested in the Goosters sleeve sponsorship, should QBE vacate it.

Amazing how quickly the story dies down when he is shipped off to "rehab" overseas...you would almost think that was the plan...

 

[globaleagle]

Roosters thinking of suing...someone

http://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/2016/02/26/roosters-consider-suing-over-pearce-video

The Sydney Roosters are reportedly considering legal action against the person who filmed the infamous Mitchell Pearce Australia Day video.

Fairfax Media reported on Friday that the club had sought legal advice about whether they could sue the person who filmed the video and sold it to media outlets via an agent.

 

[HappilyManly]

Well Mitch spoke directly at the camera, so he was aware that it was recording

The advent of Social Media must be a lawyer's goldmine

If this got up it would be a landmark change in the ground rules on selling photos and the like. Huge ramifications.

Dogs everywhere would again feel under threat.
