There's seems to be a lot of hypocrisy with NRL clubs like St George Illawarra. They sign Josh Dugan who certainly does not have an unblemished record of public conduct. He becomes a real star for them and they keep him. They sign Nielsen to a contract but he plays only games for them in which plays disappointingly commits a public misdemeanor and they sack him. It's nowhere near a loss for the Dragons however because they recoup the contract financial loss and have enough to offer a good contract for their up and coming centre Shaun Aiken.
West Tigers critics of Nielsen's private life should remember that they have a player named Lodge in their ranks who has not exactly conducted himself like a choirboy.
As far as I'm aware, Dugan hasn't broken the law. He broke a club drinking ban (which is ridiculous in and of itself) twice and got sacked for it.
