Message: [QUOTE="leish107, post: 3679203, member: 19803"] Unfortunately, the precedent has been set in rugby league that if you're a player of reasonable talent, your off-field indiscretions will be forgiven regardless of how stupid or illegal they may be. Players with far less talent than Ezra have been forgiven for much worse. And that's not me condoning or minimising what he's done - he's a bloody dickhead for getting behind the wheel and is lucky that he didn't seriously hurt or kill himself or others. As a Broncos supporter I'm happy with whatever consequences he has to face both on and off the field. But I have no doubt that in six months' time, there will be a two page spin piece in the Courier Mail about how this incident helped 'shaped' Ezra into career-best form. For all their grandstanding about holding players to account and 'drawing a line in the sand', Valandys and Abdo would rather have Ezra on the field making them money than having him sit in the stands.
