Quote: JMR "I do disagree, yes.
I am not condoning what Ben Cockayne did that night in any way...he was lucky to escape prison, but he isn't the first RL player to 'lose it' on a drunken night out (see Gareth Raynor, Chev Walker, Ryan Bailey, Martin Aspinwall, Stuart Reardon, Leaon Pryce, Chris Bridge etc, etc, etc...and countless others over the years both here and in Australia).
On the other hand, as far as I am aware, Ben Cockayne (or any other Super League player) have never got caught up in situations with the wrong type of people which has resulted in blackmail, death threats and extensive police protection for both them and their family!...
...and that's before we mention excessive drinking, betting scandals and the fact that Gleeson has been released early by his last three clubs!
But, he's a good player, and that's all that counts...apparently!'"
Now Ben Cockaine is a racist

Infact, that article has absolutly infuriated me.
There is no place in the world today for racist scum like him.
