| Disappointing, but hardly surprising.
In an ideal world you wouldn't have any players with reputations for excessive drinking or criminal behaviour in the squad. Realistically however, when considering signings, it is necessary to try to balance what a player can bring for you on the pitch with the level of risk they pose off it.
On that basis, Seymour was arguably worth the gamble. Aspinwall never was in a million years.
Where I agree with Sheldon is that, once the players are part of the club, you don't want to be seen making the same distinction. Again though, I can see how in reality doing that becomes almost inevitable.

| That was exactly my point Garry.
It happens but it shouldn't, Smiggs was implying it should be the code of conduct.
It makes me wonder if the club implement media and social training, some of the comments on twitter makes me think otherwise, a night out for the players differs to ours immensely from male and female attention both positive and negative.
When fans and players say the should be able to celebrate or commiserate after the game with a few (to many) beers I disagree and so does Wayne Bennett.

Why am I not surprised that RL Fans is better moderated than The Sun? (Or does The Sun have that much money to pay legal fees it can print what it likes  )

So it seems.
OK - consumption of quantities of alcohol way too great to be good for health is pretty rife. The phrase 'like a few' - in the way that it's normally used - IMO trivialises this fact. Pro athletes have more reason than most to avoid alcohol as it has some fairly extensive effects on human physiology and interferes with fitness/recovery in relatively small quantities. Hence my comment about it not mixing well.'"
Spot on.

You appear to think that only getting physically incapacitated counts as drinking too much. A little research may change that opinion, especially when it comes to pro sports.

It's amazing how little people know, especially players, on the effects of alcohol up to 3 days after a game.

Why would the sun have to pay legal fees ? It never ceases to amaze me about how RLfans gets all excited about sub judice cases. All the sun is doing is reporting what he was arrested for and when, thats perfectly above board. What's not allowed is discussing the details of his arrest in case potential jurors are influenced by something thats hear outside of court, I saw only one vague post so far on RLfans thats done that.

No I don't, I am more than aware of drinking limits and the effects I see it on a regular basis at work!
