Message: [QUOTE="CaptainHook, post: 2958652, member: 8315"] It is a bit weird. I read that DCE has had media training - which explains why he is so polite and well spoken and articulate. It's one of those weird things that shows that whatever progress rugby league makes with being full-time professional we are still, at heart, a working class game. Something tells me if DCE said things like "yeah mate she'll be right, luv Queensland, just happy to be wearing the jersey, tough game mate, big game next week mate", etc etc he'd be a lot more endearing to RL fans. Apart from the altercation in Gladstone earlier this year, his off the field record has been exemplary. I honestly don't get why he gets bagged for something other players have indulged freely in... Can anyone honestly say they wouldn't backflip after committing to something if they get offered a million dolar once in a lifetime deal that can set him and his family up for life? But that's not sexy enough for a story in a game as monumentally fucked up as Rugby League. He is scum. If he had snorted coke off a chick's arse or bashed up his missus or had a DUI....that's a guy we can redeem. That's a guy who, if he plays a half decent game of footy, can become a hero in our game.
