Listening to Kent tonight and there seems to be more than meets the eye with this and his opinion is if Sticky comes out and explains what happens all those years ago the public tide would turn in his favour.
Hard to tell what bogans will be swayed by, but I couldn't care less if Salmon murdered the Stuart's family dog. I'd quite happily believe Kent doesn't know either.
@antipodean Kent and Sticky are actually good mates, so whilst he talks smack most of the time I'm willing to listen in on this one. It looks like the NRL are trying to get ahead of it and will suspend him for a game regardless.

Says volumes about them.
Considering the kid was 12 I can't even imagine what he could have done that justifies this.

No matter what happened and it could be serious and it sounds like family members etc, all you need to do in a media conference when asked a direct question about the incident is to say “I don’t want to comment”.
looool fuck you can't believe this. I've finally seen what Kunt has to say and write, and it is fucking delusional. Yeah, Ricky is the strong one here, because he didn't just let out all the shit a 12 year old did 10 fucking years ago.
1 game and $20k is a joke by the way
@mariner4life said in NRL 2022:
if nothing else, the term "weak gutted dog person" has made NRL social media fucking hilarious this weekend.
my current favourite is
"yeah but what is 12 in weak gutted dog years?"
I just find the whole reaction hilarious - journos, “friends”, family, ex players etc.
@mariner4life on the ‘punishment’, they may as well have done nothing. It doesn’t change anything or create a deterrent of any kind.
@ACT-Crusader tbh I'm not sure what sort of handbrake or punishment is ever going to stop Ricky being Ricky. He's been chewing this shit over for years it seems and he's a bloody hair trigger at the best of times. From what I read he's got an axe to grind against the dad as well... no doubt more details will come emerge in usual NRL fashion.
@Paekakboyz and Kent gets the ‘exclusives’ 
Surprised someone at Ch9 or Fox hasn’t planned one of those awkward sit down one on ones with bad lighting and close ups.

it's fucking perfect by Ricky really
He cops yet another fine, and absolutely no one is talking about how the Raiders fucked up really badly when they needed to win to keep their season alive. 4D chess
in his last 16 years of coaching, Ricky Stuart's teams have played finals 4 times.
@mariner4life surprised it’s been 4 times, but they don’t care because of…
oooh
Paul Kent is going to get a hiding
@mariner4life Ricky has the most fines out of anyone in the history of the NRL, clearly fines don't work for him which is why they probably added one week suspension. Enough? hardly, but it still raises the ire of Kent..I know I shouldnt be but I am surprised to the extend he is till sticking to Ricky's side. Regardless of what happened over 10 years ago, that doesn't give anyone any right to make those comments in that forum.
@mariner4life I would not want a livid PG after me... although he should say he'll see Kent in a bathroom in 12 years!

it's a pretty dirty way to go about the defense too
zero specifics. just say "if you knew the truth you would take his side" say nothing else (and call it strength for holding your tongue). Just paint the other guy as a vile human without actually saying it, and take the moral high ground.

It would be good if they could do a fight for life so Geyer can legally bash the shit out of Kent.

Why would he refuse a contract from one shit club, just to sign for another
Wanting to move home maybe?
@Mackerzzzz hearing heart attack
Remember Green in those good Sharks days in the late 90s when they were a fairly permanent feature in the finals.
Back in the day when genuine small guys could make a name for themselves - like Green. He looked small on TV but when I saw him live, I couldn’t believe how short he actually was. Would’ve been 5’6 tops, and that’s with his footy boots on.

Premiership-winning NRL coach Paul Green’s sudden death aged 49 at his Brisbane home has stunned his friends, family and the rugby league community.
Green’s family released a statement on Thursday afternoon.
“Today we are devastated,” the statement began.
“We have lost a devoted husband, loving father and wonderful brother and son. We cannot find the words that would come close to expressing our feeling, however we would like to extend our thanks to those who have reached out to us with their love and support.
“Paul was loved by so many and we know that this news will generate immense interest, however at this time we ask for privacy.
“Our family is still trying to understand this tragedy and we request space and time as we come to terms with this loss. Thank you.”
It has been confirmed the NRL great took his own life.
A Queensland police spokeswoman said: “Police were called to a Wynnum residence just after 10am this morning after a 49-year-old was located unresponsive.
“He was declared deceased by emergency crews a short time later. There are no suspicious circumstances. A report will be prepared for the coroner.”

Tragically Green is in the age cohort (40-49yo) that has the highest suicide rate in Australia.
terribly sad about Green.
Find someone to talk to when you need it fullas. It ain't weak to speak.
anyone else watch Melbourne v Penrith last night?
Tremendously entertaining game. The score in the 2nd half was 0-0 and yet it was great to watch.
Penrith won enough stats to actually win two games of football, yet couldn't get on the scoresheet. Melbourne defended like demons. And without Cleary and Luai and Edwards the Panthers had zero direction, and couldn't convert pressure in to points.
As any Warrior fan knows, if you are relying on SOS to drive you around, then
Also Munster is really good at football

f**k that is terrible, oh shit very sad
@mariner4life lol very true! Penrith were not that bad, they had a lot of possession, did a lot fo things well, but had absolute joke halves and it showed. To be fair to Melbourne as well they really showed up defensively for the first time in a few games well.
Who would have thought, the cows could be minor premiers, lol get on now!

bro there's totally room on the bandwagon!
Any way, no chance of finishing first because Penrith still have the Warriors where they could wheel out the 1991 premiership side and still win

If you get past the Roosters this weekend i think you are a good shout, you both have the warriors in your draw to come and you both have the bunnies. I can't see Penrith winning that right now. Then it comes down to a head to head shoot out between you and them, will be possible to sneak in front but some tough games for sure
@mariner4life Storm vs Panthers B….
It was telling all that possession close to the line that the Panthers had no imagination in attack.
I hate the Storm

i am no fan, but it would be churlish to eulogise the Panthers' outs, and ignore the Storm's.
