@ said:@ said:@ said:so many posters talk about people like suli 'needing to learn a lesson', 'make him lay bricks for a year…'.
a lot of people have absolutely zero understanding of what are obviously some serious mental health issues. this seems to me to be something that is being dilated because it seems every second person has 'mental health issues'. it is like so many other real problems that are dissipated by pretenders looking to take advantage. thats a real shame.
no he doesnt deserve to be given 100 chances - he has likely had enough now already - but he definitely seems to need psychological help.
it is not the nrl's responsibility just because he has played nrl. it is up to people around him who actually have his best interests at heart to look out for him.
i would suggest people take a step back and think about why someone in his position would self destruct how he looks to be; surely this is not the path of someone of a completely sound mindset.
Being lazy with a bad attitude does not equal mental health issues.
is he really that stupid? if so, i stand corrected, but anyone who travels that path of self sabotage has issues.
He was offered, and utilised counselling and other assistance from both WT and the Dogs. If he had significant mental health issues, I'm sure it would have been noted by now.
Fact is these days, it's politically correct to give everyone the chance to claim mental health issues. Many are genuine. It's also fact that some people are just DH's and will never get it. I don't care what he does with his life and he can go and get all the counselling he needs. Maybe he just doesn't want to do it or just doesn't care enough. You really have to commit body and mind to get to the elite level. Most people just don't have it. I suspect he just doesn't have it. Plain and simple. But it doesn't mean we have to find an excuse.
