Tim Simona - Deregistered

It's match fixing plain and simple.
I'm sure we lost games through this scheme of his.

Rub him out of the game. Criminal charges needed.
 
Why would a guy earning hundreds of thousands a year waste his time with small-time rubbish like this?

If he had bet thousands of dollars you could understand he has dollar signs in his eyes. But to bet $10 here or $20 there … and on matches he is involved in ??

If half these footy players were not good athletes, you would have to think they would be almost unemployable, such is their stupidity.

Precisely you honestly wonder if they have any brain cells that work at all.

That's the question that comes to mind.
Did he cost us any games with all this? Which in turn may have cost us a finals spot

I sincerely hope it's not true, but since it's got all this wind you'd have to think that there's certainly some suspect activity he'll have to provide answers for.

I hope it is something as innocuous as his mates throwing bets down on him, but I don't like the chances.
 
I never rated Simona anywhere near as high as others.

He always seemed to go down with mystery injuries during games as well.

Bye Bye Tim.
 
As soon as I saw that the NRL had gone straight to deregistration I knew this would be more than a few bucks backing himself to score. If he's bet against his own team he's either bent or the single stupidest human who ever walked the face of the earth. Either way he's done.
 
I feel for the team and the guys that try 100% every week.
I feel for the fans the cheer and travel to games every week.
It's a massive breach of trust. I'm honestly just disgusted.
The whole 2016 was thrown away for a few bets It's safe to say.
We had plenty of close games where his edge defence failed.
Only has to be one game affected and finals was done for us.

He should not be allowed to play again, anywhere.
Match fixers shouldn't prosper.
 
What an idiot.
About as stupid as throwing a flick pass on the 2nd or 3rd tackle, 5 minutes into the game, only 10m out from your own line and with a finals spot up for grabs.
Makes you wonder….....
 
Matchball I feel similarly in terms of the overall picture.

However at the end of the season I don't remember too many people complaining about Simona's defence.

It would be interesting to look back now at some of the games.

However I not remember any glaring examples of poor defence (I could be wrong)
 
$300k a year salary and yet he needed to rig matches highlights that if true Simona had some large demons & needed some real help.

It also highlights despite this to come 9th last year wasn't as bad a result considering all the turmoil.

Re Simona the kid had huge amount of potential but now won't be known for any of that anymore.

Feel sorry for the rest if the team who were digging in but Simona had already decided what would happen his side of the park…...

If true he wont be allowed to play again and nor should he.Do you really believe that it was his defence that cost us a spot in the top 8 last year?To me there where many more "leaks" on the other side of the field.
Dont get me wrong he should never play again and could easily face criminal charges but lets not distort what happened in 2016
 
Thats my point jadtiger.

Where there any matches there where fans came in blowing up effort Simona efforts or defence.

It was more the right side that looked in all sorts most of the season.

I am not absolving him in any way - these are terrible allegations.

However off the top of the my head I can't remember any glaringly poor efforts.
 
i actually thought he was one of the best defenders in a poor defensive backline. However to do remember him doing some stupid kick and chances on the 1st or 2nd tackle. i think he did it twice from memory.
