Message: [QUOTE="ddd, post: 2204325, member: 2154"] In hindsight, we probably should have stood down the boys during the investigation, but we were playing for a final spot (joke), but as Bruno said on the Footy Show, he checked all the penalties and actions taken with the boys with Gallop and the NRL. They approved so were happy with what happened. The public image of NRL has changed so much even in the last six months, but this story adds nothing, we all had to deal with this being dragged through the mud at the end of last year - I agree with the OP - I was expecting this to be brought up, just reeks of lazy/ opportunistic journalism ("I know what'll sell some Newspapers..."). But who know what will happen with this issues being reconsidered in the current 2009 climate? Possibly - Hunt gets the flick (he was likely to leave anyway) Boyd gets canned (he's left - who cares) and Thaiday goes (we've have loads of young second rowers coming up). Everyone learns a lesson and life goes on. What is really worrying is all the sponsors and schoolboy sides threatening to pull out - has Four Corners killed NRL?? Is this the end?? Maybe the lesson to take away from this is that, with a career in professional Rugby League means that you simply cannot got out at night, especially in Brisbane where everyone watches your every move. They get the big bucks, but really have to sacrifice a normal life. [/QUOTE]
