As a Reds fan I say go for it.He would be a handy utility back to have as a bench option -
Yeah they could have an open relationship. I guess it seems unlikely.Because we don’t know what boundaries they have set on their relationship.
He had sex in a pub bathroom, with someone who wasn't his wife. That part is not in dispute and had it been that he was just kicked out of the pub for it at the time he would've ended up with a long stint on the sideline minimum. Given his history of off field incidents it's even money his contract would've been torn up then and there.So you can get sacked for cheating on your misses some world we live in
It certainly won’t help an aging player who is past his prime to get re-signed. What he has to offer as a utility back coming off the bench won’t compensate for his actions and the bad press he’s brought to the code and the organization.So you can get sacked for cheating on your misses some world we live in
I thought he was a dubious selection 2 years ago, I am not sure what he could add to the squad todayI don't want him back, but if everyone who cheated on their spouse or partner lost their job a third of the population of both sexes would be sacked.
Look, I think it's appaling behaviour, but I am not sufficiently self-rightous to think the rest of the world is required to live by my standards.
From a rugby perspective, he's 35, was already on the decline two years ago, hasn't played for over a year, I would hate the Tahs to waste a space on him, but that's purely fom a rugby perspective.
There was a study done in France years ago about the level of illicit drug use in Rugby and it concluded that those who played rugby are risk takers and are more prone to that type of behaviourThere was a great study done ages ago by an ex AFL coach turned uni sport science prof
It was about the attributes to consider when selecting a draft kid in the AFL.
The issue highlighted was that risk taking is an important attribute in a great athlete, making those passes, diving on those balls etc, the issue is that the flip side of "risk taking" trait also can lead to gambling, drug taking, PEDs, infidelity etc etc
I think at the time, I was on the fence, could have been a good fit, and possibly the utility back the Tahs needed then. This is now and I think those spots are covered - he's not going to value add much I don't think.Kurtley Beale plays 10, 12 and 15. He may be past it now, but I reckon it was a good signing at the time. I wouldn't sign him now though.
And that didnt come out in court? That puts a different light on it. Well I would think he would have no hope of getting back into the Tahs in any capacity.I’m hearing his accuser has a closer link to the Tahs
It would have come out in court if so but her identity has been suppressed. That information may have been specifically suppressed because it could identify her.And that didnt come out in court? That puts a different light on it. Well I would think he would have no hope of getting back into the Tahs in any capacity.
I see he is going for costs - could be more legal action to follow
Yeah silly way of putting it, trying to be be clever. Let’s move on.
I think Tahs will be the top Aussie side this year.
I stand by my prediction. Only a trial game, they’ll be the top Aussie team.And what now?
Pretty hard to do that when their man of the match lock is playing for the opposition.We should send out Randwick’s 1-15 GF Shute Shield side in round 1!
Getting a bit concerned now.
Need to trial some more players - are there any left (uninjured)?I stand by my prediction. Only a trial game, they’ll be the top Aussie team.
