Quote: Cruncher "I'm not sure that taking the high moral ground is a luxury the club can afford.
Doing the right thing is of course important - but there is that old argument that when someone has done their time, past indiscretions should be scrubbed. If you don't believe in that, then I'd suggest you're not actually a moral person, despite your protestations.
I'd point to the fact that many RL stars of past and present - Wigan heroes among them - would not have graced our fields were we to adopt a blanket 'you must be perfect' approach.'"
I'd agree if it was just the drug use, but this guy repeatedly does things that bring his club into disrepute and rules himself out of big games (2 x World Cups, 1 x Grand Final, 1 x relegation battle so far). Even taking the morality standpoint out of it, what are the odds that he leaves us in the lurch when we need him?
