Video of ARey and Patty Carrigan having a tustle

Rumour there’s a Walsh/Oates one too but no evidence of that

Albert Kelly 177cm vs Payne Haas 194cm
Adam Reynolds 173cm vs Patty Carrigan 190cm
Reece Walsh 177cm vs 192cm

Tough titties though
Keeping your rep pristine (or off camera) is part of the paycheque

This def just slap on the wrist stuff
Maybe 1 game week off if they weren’t headed to USA
I see no reputational damaging anything. Humans are still humans & its ok to have disagreements. The world isn't Instagram perfect.

I don't even know if I see a disagreement? We used to wrestle like this for fun after a few too many beers on the reg.

Walsh screetching let go of him **** probably indicates not everyone was in on the joke though.

When you say used to were you 33?

Did you want it filmed and spread around linked with your high profile employer?

In the scheme of things it’s far from a big deal I agree. And not beyond the realms of **** I got into by any means.
But whether people individually agree with it or not it’s just a slight bit more negative attention and I think there are people around, including them, who would have preferred a different conflict resolution technique be used in hindsight.

Perhaps of potentially more consequence is it opens a door for less friendly types to get stuck into them in public more now too, and that can end even more problematically.

These are literally the leaders of the team, I believe they are joint captains, I personally think this is literally the worst look for the Club and for the NRL as they are sending these players to Las Vegas, to be ambassadors for the game.

Las Vegas is Sin City, Idk who the chaperones will be for all the players , but the NRL must be spin cycle trying to clean this mess up and do not see how they can look the other way on the incident; given the whole drama is on cctv.

Plus the entire playing group, who you would assume followed the " leaders " , were kicked out of a bar , prior to the incident, as well as moved along by Police.

For how tough he is, Patty Carrigan is a super nice and genuine guy. I'd generally be happy to see a Broncos player suspended but I hope there's nothing in this for his sake.

What if they dressed as Nazis and went around decapitating puppies on TikTok?
They are highly paid professional football players, in the context of conduct, either the public drunkenness or making questionable tik tok content is unacceptable.
In the context of Las Vegas, it is literally the worst case scenario for the NRL.

Wouldn't surprise if the NRL defers their punishment until after round 1
Previous similar antics attracted a 1 round suspension
But it seems most of the Vegas arrangements would be fairly locked in ?
Roosters licking their beaks I imagine .

Just read that.

Looks like they are keeping finals for u11’s and u12’s. Might have been a compromise.
