See above ..at least that’s a journo talking to the police, and not a gut feeling

Journos were reporting the same thing when Smith was interviewed, just a person of interest that they wanted to question about someone else etc.......as I said until all the facts come out, we are all speculating. Last time I checked this forum was mostly speculation and gut feelings.

That is true about Smith ..so I’ll give you a nod for thst …

The premise of your speculation though I think is wrong in this instance …solely based on the fact that he has been “named “ does not necessarily mean that he has done anything worse…if there is further info that comes to light than obviously that changes things …but why do you think that could possibly still come?

The possession of cocaine is an offence.

Was he alledged to be in possession ?

Won’t improve them , place needs the hardest coach around to get it going , Des is just weird

Look at the squad formed it isn’t suited to a hardline coach. It’s a dynamic flair speed instinctive style of squad.

They need a large squad restructure & balance. Having Campbell, AJ and Kini all the exact same style of player around the ball isn’t productive for them.

The Titans have had some really well regarded coaches and some better than decent squads including the current one. It will be interesting to see who he wants to retain.

they’ve always had the better roster to ours but haven’t really improved.

yeah legally he did nothing wrong Brandon just helped him score, but with the roosters he could be in trouble

gonna take a wild guess that’s how we ended up with May so I’ll take radley too if they don’t want him 😂

Pretty sure if the cops caught someone racking up, they'd consider that doing something wrong...

Brandon is likely being used to help extract additional information so they can pin the actual drug dealers .. he's an easy target because of his profile . The betting thing is a stitch up . Brandon also mentioned on the bye round podcast on the Tuesday of the week in question that he'd likely be playing.. he was named on the extended bench... Its a non event.. if someone else chooses to bet on the match with that information then that's got nothing to do with Brandon..

There are people on this forum who know the team before it's officially announced at 4pm on a Tuesday.. does that mean when they share info here that they should be pinned too? Ofcourse not... The prosecution is stretching..
 
It’s going to be interesting as to what happens around Smith. It’s 2 weeks out from the Bunnies end of season.

If he is not guilty nothing will happen to anyone else but if guilty I doubt he will be the only one impacted. Re Roosters they won’t do anything pending what happens to Smith.

As to penalty/time out of the game I doubt the NRL will be harsh, they weren’t for Ezra who did a heck of alot worse pending what court outcome happens.

ngl id take radley if roosters decide to punt him

I was tossing this up last night...
But I think with all his head knocks, id prefer we play Sione at 13 and allow him to interchange with Latu who comes on as a 14... I think Sione has more upside than Radley now . I think his best is past him .

I don't necessarily think the Radley involvement would lead to possession charge as he may not have gone through with the purchase, what I am speculating is the fact his name has actually come out leads me to believe there may be something more to it. I'm also connecting the dots where Nick Politis has unequivocally stated that there is a zero-tolerance view of drug taking at the Roosters. Now Brandon would not have been falsely implicating Radley as an interested party with the dealer as a prank...so where there is smoke there is fire.....again purely speculation on my part.

The previous three coaches prior to Des have never got a Head Coaching job elsewhere after passing through the GC … good luck Josh…

If anyone can get the Titians firing it’s probably Josh. He needs to go back to square one and totally rebuild the joint. They have a lot of quality juniors up on the coast but it’s a task that basically every coach has failed to succeed at.

Perfectly explained
 
I just read both Reimis Smith & Bayley Sironen are off-contract at Catalans. Reimis was mentioned yesterday as a good depth outside back target (instead of Naden) but what about Sironen as a utility? I recall some NRL matches, I think at the Wahs, when he filled in at hooker quite admirably. Any regular ESL watchers think Sironen could have a future back in the NRL?
