6 days later and still nothing on the official Warriors site, yet I'm sure they said in June that they would not make a statement until any investigation was concluded, which it now has.

Should have been sacked simple as. Doesn't send out the correct message to youngsters that look up to these players.

Like Bridge and Harrison.

In effect he's been sacked.

Wigan RL can no longer employ him. If they help him find a job elsewhere, that's up them - but I'm pretty sure there's no way that he can remain a direct employee of Wigan RL for the duration of his ban.

If what you really mean is that, as well as losing his career in his mid-20s, he should also be held up for public ridicule and humiliation, then you're entitled to your view but don't expect many to take you seriously.

And your club sends out what message? Go on go out do what you went, get arrested, you'll still play in the clubs biggest game in recent history

At the end of the day he's made a big mistake and he is paying for it - so are Wigan, we've lost arguably the best second row in the competition for 2 years, why should we punish ourselves more by sacking him only for him to get signed up by one of our rivals once the ban is up?

Bet you'd be creaming it if we sacked him then Wire signed him at the end of his ban.

im pretty sure ive read that somewhere. Its part of his punishment that he cant be employed in any capacity by wigan warriors.
