More bad behaviour

[prattenparkchild]

WT should stand for something.

At least we have none of the other category of stars to be hypocritical.

It's encouraging to see that we can formulate theories and blame religion ( really?) for this incident WITHOUT KNOWING THE FACTS.
Who knows? . . . the uber driver ( not taxi driver) could be some sort of lunatic himself. Instead of a polite bip bip with his horn, he may have leant on it for 20 seconds swearing at these 2 to get out of the effing way. We don't know the facts, and it occurred to me that maybe we should hear the facts first before wringing our hands.
MCK may well have done the wrong thing. But these uber drivers are just randoms with no training or effective screening. Didn't one sexually assault a young girl asleep in the back seat after a big night out ? I wonder if she went to church ?
Anyway . . . pitchforks unite !!!

The police didnt charge the uber driver with anything in the MCK incident, certainly it dosent mean he is guilty but the police believe MCK did.You are correct about another uber driver being charged for a crime but that hardly has any relevance on this incident

On one hand you are telling not to judge people by their religion, but you are judging Uber drivers because another one sexually assaulted a woman. Hypocracy much?

You have a point in that one should wait for the facts to come out. One of the only facts we know is that MCK has been charged, so the police have enough evidence of that. The only thing I can think of that would maybe excuse physically assaulting the guy in the vehicle is for the driver to have actually hit them with their car. Doesn't sound like that happened.

Just quietly though, wasn't Brooksy rumoured to be out of sorts a few months ago, which we seem to have kept out of the papers? I don't know the story there, but if Brooksy was the instigator in something, I reckon WT sure as anything would have tried to cover that up.

Good assessment. They have relied on their talent to get them everything they want three times as fast as most of us with no true understanding of how tough that is or real appreciation, because its standard for most of the people they associate with. ie other players.
Many of them are also already fathers of two or more kids without any real life experience other than being in the NRL bubble.
Not sure what the answer is other than the NRL taking the power away from the clubs who will always be on the side of protecting their talent.

The truth is though the NRL buries it's head in the sand just as much as the clubs do, in order to protect hhe talent within it's organisation. Look at what Inglis has gotten away with doing throughout his career as an example. If he was just Joe Bloggs he would of been gone long ago after he hit his missus for starters. Toddy wants to ensure the cash-cow keeps getting milked, it will ensure his pockets are lined in his retirement….....

There's a few joe bloggs that are still around having belted their missus

Not sure there are too many still running around earning a wage in the NRL aside from Untouchable Greggy.
Zane Tetevano and Ben Barba are the only ones that spring to mind. Tetevano plays for the Rorters so he could get away with being a serial killer and still be happily vouched for by the NRL and their great mate Unca Nick. And fairly certain Greenberg himself was CEO of the Bulldogs when one of his own- Barba, flogged his partner and the whole sordid incident was swept under the carpet.

I agree with what you are saying. Just adding others seem to get off lightly aswell.

Players from basket ball or a number of sports, could mug someone in stark daylight and most probably no one one would recognise them anyway.
A NRL player only has to sneeze the wrong way, and a dozen phones spring out of pockets, When will some of these drongos realise that, and even the thickest of them ,get the message?
There’s a lot of players in the NRL, who know how to act like a human,
A pity that they get bundled in with the cretinous minority who are not capable of sane thinking,
I couldn’t care less if the League booted anyone who brings the game into disrepute, get rid of them

The League only selectively chooses who to punt out of the game for bringing it into disrepute. Todd Carney for example.
Yet a spouse-beating Greg Inglis drives across NSW half-p###ed and speeding and is hailed as "brave" by Greenberg for holding a press conference AFTER his misdemeanor is splashed over every newspaper. The game is run by idiots so it is no surprise that it breeds idiots.
Wonder if MCK will be made an example of ala Carney, or cop the red-carpet adulation the Immortal-in-waiting (spew) GI gets showered with?

Absolutely 100% agree

Agreed.Read Animal Farm some time and it could be about the NRL even though it was written about communism.

You mean the part about all animals being equal but some being more equal than others?

I don’t care how long the driver was on the horn for or whether he was playing ABBA at ear piercing decibels, it does not give anyone (including MCK) the right to physically assault him.

What if after being attacked, the random pulled a knife from his glovebox that he only carries to defend himself against thugs, and stuck it through MCK’s throat?

Look at what happened in southern Sydney today. It only takes one moron overreacting for things to escalate very badly.

Always best to wait for the actual details before slandering a guys reputation.

No one knows what actually happened, but it's obviously cool to pass judgement without having a clue as to what really went down.

Honestly though , how many people would recognize Zane Musgrove or MCK …............

a lot less less than a lot of other players,true, but it only takes one,

Bet we read if he does get sacked he is starts playing Union

That is the biggest problem I see , we need to cut the back door off and have a cross code agreement against players who have been involved in criminal activities

Totally , if the International Rugby League had an ounce of bite a ban by any of the Leagues should apply across every league worldwide

It does in soccer but then again FIFA is a powerful union

Touching her thigh? Big difference from the police originally claiming they had CCTV of Bolton grabbing her privates…...
Don't know what to think of this case. People will be getting charged every minute for standing next to someone in a queue or on public transport accidently brushing up against someone.
If the police retracted their allegation I am surprised it wasn't thrown out of court. Bolton obviously agreed to plead guilty to the lesser charge. Whole thing seems a bit wishy-washy IMO.
