Message: [QUOTE="Porthoz, post: 3003044, member: 2221"] Exactly right. If the prospect of a long jail term is not a deterrent, why would suspension from playing NRL even rate a concern? I understand where people are coming from in regards to the NRL finally drawing the line, but this creates prejudice and no matter how much you call it a "No Fault" policy, it does presume guilt rather than innocence. I prefer to ensure an innocent player is not caught in the net and see his future ruined, and live with the guilty one playing a few extra games before a more permanent arrangement in a 2x3 cell... A much better policy would be to permanently barr players from the game once they have been proven guilty of a serious enough offense (any jail time conviction is serious enough imo), repeat offenders in behaviour that brings the game into disrepute, and enforce a sacking for disciplinary reasons at one club in the whole competition. Allowing clubs with zero scruples to pick-up players sacked by clubs who take those matters more seriously, is why the NRL is such an absolute joke in the first place. Now, we place the decision on "lighter offenses" at the discretion of Greenturd... seriously? [/QUOTE]
