You Saints mob put what ever spin you want on this its not good.

Well, if he was killing humans then I would agree with you. But he isn't. I'd also agree with you if he enjoyed bear bating, dog fighting, bull fighting or some other equally cruel sport. However, that's not what he is talking about at all.

Maybe explains why he goes for the head on the Rugby Field too...

Oh deer!

Remind yourself of that next time you cruelly swat a fly for annoying you, flush a spider down the toilet, drive your car into an innocent oncoming insect, etc.

Anybody that eats meat has no justifiable moral high ground, even though they always seem to try and come up with one.

Dead right, there's a lot of hypocrites on here. Reminds me of an old punk lyric from years ago.........

You moan about the seal cull and about the whale slaughter,
but does it really matter whether it lives on land or water.
You've never had a fur coat, you think it's cruel to mink.
Well what about the cows, pigs, sheep don't they make you think?

They don't write 'em like that anymore.

Love the daily mail style faux injustice by some about this. You'd think no-one has ever hunted before!

i dont know what the big deal is!!! i was talking to keiron the day this news broke. hes amazed that its got such a reaction. he has all the licences he needs to do this, so whats the problem?? all the top tv chefs kill animals on their programs!! so what??? . gonna go and have a steak for tea now.... i think it died of natural causes!!

It really has nothing to do with you. Just cause you dont like it!!!!! Lets ban it!!!!! I am sure there are things you do that Kieron does not approve of. Killing dear is Always done as stock control (unless you are a poacher) Big estates who allow stalking are almost always doing it to cull either the old stock or any spare males etc....

Its nothing personal agaisnt you but i hate it when people give thier opinions on things and get all moral. You dont agree ok. There really is no need to come on here letting everyone know he is in your opinion scum. I really hope your a veggie cause if your not i suggest you down to a slaughter house cause the animals you eat bleed too. Is he really SCUM???? Do you hug tree's? Is the world all fluffy and white in your eyes. I know there are people out there who thing rugby is barbaric and should be banned!!!!!Where does it all end. Here's an idea, you mind your own business and we all do the same, suddenly the world is a better place.

Don,t know what all the hype is about, all this criticism is probably from people who don,t know anything about wildlife and natures balance.
Like the previous poster has mentioned the deer is regularly culled each year to control herd numbers across the land acres. If they increase in vast numbers they actually destroy lots of other wildlife in the area, the annual cull addresses the balance.
One thing I do know, is that Kieron will be managed into what he can and cant kill, he will be only able to kill old deer stock and then butchered for other animal or human consumption.
Maybe we all need to get rid of our computers, mobile phones, hypermarkets, political correctness etc to get back into the real natural world.

Gets on my wick that we expect sportsmen to be role models in their life outside of sport. The guys a role model on the field, I couldnt care what he does in his private life, he's not Morrissey - it's a moral agrument that isn't relavant to a guy that plays Rugby for a career. The only standards I expect from him off the field are to fulfill his Saints roles in the community, and has he not been a sheer proffessional in his duties for his whole career? I think so.

Bloodsports arn't my thing, but it's not illegal so who cares? If we were to ban everything that some people find offensive we would be in a 1984 style society before long

But according to a poster above they are bred to be hunted, so why breed them if the numbers are that high they need to be hunted for sport? Surely nature's balance doesn't need the help of a man with a gun?




Does the 'real natural world' include the man made firearm he uses? Surely in the 'real natural world' he be using his bare hands? Then we'd be talking about 'nature's balance'.
