Whats the issue though? He got drunk and passed out?

Have you never done it?

If it was offseason I wouldn’t really give a **** but in season he probably shouldn’t be going that hard, but especially when injured.

That’s pretty next level if they couldn’t even slap him awake enough to be able to stumble (/be dragged) out with a bit of assistance.
His boys crowd surfing him out like Spider-Man.

Definitely no crime committed, but more ****faced than an injured professional athlete with assorted issues should be getting.

I get that. He was smashed. But what did he do wrong?

No one has said that yet?

Given the issues he’s had he probably did the wrong thing by himself but that’s up to him.
Given he is injured he did the wrong thing by the club (drinking while out injured is usually a big no-no).

He was somewhere between the Carney sprinkler and the classic Pearce fake making-love to a dog

Make him publicly apologise at the ground before the game.

Isn't that the standard response?

I'd much rather take Flanno Jr's solid but slightly passive 2nd game than the **** that Clifford or Te Maire Martin show for the Cowboys for instance. He was an emergency, wasn't expecting to play, and showed a lot of good signs.

Both are good players, but Clifford is the higher rated prospect by everybody in RL circles, and ran rings around Flanagan the last time they met head to head. The biggest difference at the moment is that Flanagan is being eased into a competitive team slowly (and IMO correctly) but Clifford has been brought in to a team who just lost their superstar 7 to retirement and had the rug pulled out on their fullback plans in the pre-season. Clifford this season as a 6/7 is where Val was as a fullback and Brailey was as a hooker at the start of 2017.

rumour has it Roberts is a piss head!!!! he just got smashed but the issue isn't what did he do wrong its more the reputation of the game i personaly think the douches that sell these "Photo's" should be getting punished for trying to make coin from some one elses fame , espacially when they didnt hurt any 1

Welcome to modern society.. I swear 1st thing people do is reach for their phone rather than offer a helping hand.

I think the fact they didn't jump down from the balcony/window to join the other six people carrying him is the least of the issue...

Roberts is a walking time bomb. He’s been to rehab before and will end up there again.

Had a mate at penrith when he got sacked, man if the media found out what he did, oh boy.

Rumour going around that Trent Merrin is heading back to Sydney and has acquired a release from Leeds on compassionate grounds.

Apparently dragons trying to get him
