Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3214271, member: 9853"] No, but he's there to gain some kind of empathy for the police as human beings, what they deal with on a day to day. Banning him is what's PR bullshit. That's nothing but PR. I'm certain he'll get something along those lines. But in the end, it's us who lose from that. I'm sure you're right. The NRL knows it has to virtue signal, and it will do that through a suspension. It's a terrible look for Haas personally, but the judge saw fit to set him loose with a warning. It was the right decision. The apology is pure PR, but I can't read the bloke's mind to know whether he genuinely feels bad and embarrassed. I'm sure the NRL will use its bluntest tool and suspend him for x number of games because that's the way they're expected to react. But that's not about Payne. That's about the NRL and club not getting in trouble for being light on roughnecks. [/QUOTE]
