Message: [QUOTE="Coxy, post: 2501783, member: 1764"] The thing is, your and my hard earned dollars to buy tickets and merchandise in part subsidises their lifestyle to act as dickheads. Just as I object to politicians who spend taxpayer dollars on hookers and limo trips to do wine tastings, I object to my supporter money being spent funding boozy, disgusting behaviour. As nopatience said, a truly professional athlete would not treat their body and mind like that. Do I expect a high moral compass? No, not beyond an average person's understanding of right and wrong, sensible and stupid. Professionalism? Yes. Should the legal process take its place? Yes. Should the NRL tear up contracts and deregister players who repeatedly get on the piss and act like dicks? Absolutely. I don't care if they end up playing rugby in Japan. Good luck to them. But the NRL shouldn't accept it. 99% of players have a drink and do so in moderation and don't act like fuckwits. The 1% have no place among the elite of the game. They're welcome to play local league and hold down a "real" job. [/QUOTE]
