So he legit just went out on the balcony… for fresh air… Jeeze the worlds gone crazy..

Fair dinkum. Rules are rules. If you want to throw a hand grenade into the competitions viability, go ahead and break them. QLD is tough on this covid thing. Everyone knows it and he is arrogant enough to thumb his nose at both those allowing the competition to run as well as all of his fellow footballers. I've stuck up for him ever since he arrived and wished him well. I now want this idiot gone.

Nrl should be kicked out.

He was also a considered a close contact of someone so wasn’t with the team .

I’m sure all other returning travellers can’t go on balconies - even without prior mental health issues they would be suffering as well .

They had to tape up their balcony doors which was noted in the papers yesterday . So he deliberately opened it up .. if he was suffering why didn’t he ask for permission .

Anyway I blame nrl and the club … if he couldn’t handle it , he should never have been sent up to qld

I honestly don't get the issue with going on a balcony?

Lol... wow

 

[StarswithStripes]

Club officials should have anticipated this and had something in place to avoid this from happening. They have a program and resources in place. Feel sorry for the guy given his history.

 

[avocadoontoast]

This is such a nothing. He stood out on a balcony, who cares.

 

[tbones10]

I this bloke is a joke, whats that the third time he has breached covid restrictions. Send him back NSW and let him finish his career and have to get a real job and work for a living.

It’s crazy. Who was he going to catch covid from, a seagull? There needs to be some common sense applied to these sort of things. If he gets suspended it’s a complete joke.

Player families were passing food across balconies, stupid thing is they are allowed to eat together and share a common room.

I can see him getting suspended. He’s an easy target
Fringe first grader from a struggling club. NRL needs to make a strong lead on this to appease QLD politics. The chief doctor up there has way to much power.

The St George players got 1 week, no way Roberts will be suspended.

And if he’s having suicidal thoughts and a panic attack , which from his childhood , and abuse , he’s outlined in a few podcasts , is 100% likely, what then ?
To compare him to people entering the country ,with COVID specifically , or , coming from countries with 30,000 daily , as a minimum , is ridiculous.
The guy gets tested , almost daily , from what I understand.
The 2 week lockdown is fine , but , to have him , and those simply travelling interstate , with no symptoms , and multiple tests in the previous 2 weeks , be treated as someone returning from places like India , is draconian .

The amount of testing is the key , to why this is ridiculous .

You don't have to. They're the rules in place to keep the competition going and he broke them twice. You don't have to agree or understand. You just have to follow the rules.
