I’m pretty sure he has the suspended license from a previous DUI
So this will be second DUI in close proximity, possibly under the influence of drugs too, and on his suspended license.
The courts aren’t going to take him lightly and neither will the NRL. I think he’s going to be hit hard, I...
I genuinely starting to think he will be. We have a no D head policy and the combination of all 3 (driving on alcohol, driving on drugs, driving no license) is going to look horribly bad in the media and the courts.
When’s Ben Hunt available?
“The Sydney Morning Herald reports the Sharks will confirm the veteran has been told by medical professionals to hang up the boots immediately due to repeated concussions.”
Sad end for him but if that’s the case it’s the right thing to do. Got a lot of life left to live with his family. Enjoy...
Yeah I don’t know much more than you I think. Just remembered them talking about it on maybe 100% footy.
I would pick wighton though if we can. As good as it would be to see Brailey picked, I also don’t want to see him broken from it. I think he gets his time there eventually soon enough.
“He’s still retired but I told him to get himself playing and see how he’s travelling. We’ll have a discussion as the season transpires. We all know he’s a big game player whenever he’s in that arena. In time, I’m sure Jack will decide whether he’s ready to go again.”
That was from Feb 6th...
I nearly have Wighton starting but he’s retired from Origin remember.
There was discussion on one of the footy shows recently and he still hasn’t come out and said “pick me if you want”
I think he gets the Blues 14.
To many things lining up, from Madge coming to watch Sharks the other week, to Madge inviting him to the “secret spine meeting”, to Gus saying he thinks he’s getting an origin spot (referenced Trindall but later corrected himself saying he meant Brailey”
Going off the highlights he seems to have a nice bit of footwork where he can change angles close to the line and still be effective with his size and speed.
Open space he looks quite fast. Like possibly one of the fastest players in our squad maybe.
Very exciting prospect
