Message: [QUOTE="Kimlo, post: 2610621, member: 2021"] [b]Re: Russel Packer - possible link to Broncos[/b] Attempted murder? It was assault that he was charged for. He pleaded guilty and as far as I know hasn't even tried ho appeal it, he was also affected by alcohol at that time. Don't get me wrong here, I have no admiration for Packer, and don't even rate him highly as a player that I'd want the club to pursue him, but if he served his time, was genuinely remorseful, had taken genuine steps to improve himself and he approached the club pleading for a job, I would at least expect the club to weigh up everything and not just dismiss him because he has a record. People can genuinely **** up, doesn't mean they will always be fuckups. That being said, I think playing the NRL is a privilege and on his history, there would need to be exceptional circumstances for him to ever be allowed to play again. He can always get a regular job like the rest of us. [/QUOTE]
