Crikey! Just read Manu Vatuvei is potentially facing up to life in prison for drug importation. Wouldn't have picked him as the type.
Same can be said for Michael Gordon.
What is it making players turn to the drug trade?
Loss of $100000's income when retiring?
It’s hard retiring when you play for peanuts, I’d imagine it’s near impossible when it’s your living and your identity
Spot on , I would love to know what these “player managers “ have been doing for these players other than collecting the 6.5%
- do they set up investments for them ?
- do they actively manage what the players post playing career going to be ?
I'm sure it would mostly be a case of since I can't get any more out of you then I have no interest in you.
