what im interested to see is what the Reds/ARU decided to do for the rest of 2015. I'm not too sure but I wouldn't be surprised if the Hunt is allowed to return to the team shortly pending his matter being resolved at a hearing (provided he actually intends to plead not guilty. The media...

Thomson was probably my MOTM

Not much to say about the game. The game was pretty dull. You know its a dull game when I'm switching back and forth with the NBA. The conditions made things tough. It looked really heavy under foot. lots of kicking and scrums. Things were generally played at a slow place. One really nice...

ha, most wiki experts on this site.

I don't quite understand your argument Keiran. I'm not condoning what Hunt has dont (if he's guilty, and he is presumed innocent). Firstly, we don't yet know anything about the facts; the facts will come in time. But from what I have gathered, he's accused of sourcing cocaine from a cocaine...

yes. im a commercial lawyer these days but have a pretty extension history in crim law. so I can answer most questions if you have any TOCC

I will. I would wager he was issued with a Notice to Appear. It's really up to the arresting officer whether they issue a Notice to Appear or bring someone into the station. For a guy like Hunt, it's more appropriate for the Police to issue a NTA. btw the CCC don't arrest people, the QPS do the...

I imagine he received a Notice to Appear

Exactly what they have done with Tobacco, and the usage rates for smoking have plummeted over the last 40 years due to education on health effect

Certainly from the organisations standpoint the distinction between legal and illegal is all that matters in this instance.

Personally I have a problem with the archaic approach our country takes to drug laws in that you have a bloke who has a successful career and is a role model and someone that seemingly contributes positively to our community, but his life is destroyed because of some minor recreational drug use...

Here Here Gel. if anything I think this is all the coach's fault

I don't think that's necessarily correct. It'll depend on the terms of his contract. These sporting organisation often have contractual clauses which provide that being charged with certain offences is a ground for contract termination, regardless of guilt.

Fuck Qwerty, you like Daz's comment?! you're the one that brought the whole Kurtley situation up.

Also, god knows how much money the ARU have had to fork out to Di Patson. I reckon it would have been easily in the 6 figures.

It'll just be a first mention on that date. If it proceeds to trial we could be looking at late 2015 or if it proceeds on indictment to the district court, sometime in 2016. I imagine it'll be a minor offence, dealt with in the mags court.

Wasn't Kurtley found guilty? the muppet somehow was still in a Wallabies jersey in Novemebr

Interesting to see what happens to Hunt this season. I suspect his contract probably have clauses which allow immediate terminate for even being charged with these types of offences. No point in "suspending" him, given that the prosecution is unlikely to be resolved by the end of the season. I...

I definitely think some of Newman's police state laws rubbed Queenslanders the wrong way. I think his worst mistake though was turning his strong-arm tactics on the traditional liberal support base, lawyers, the medical profession and the judiciary.
