Maitua Suspended Indefinitely

[Ndawai]

Guys I dont think theres too much in it.

The Bulldogs website still has his profile available.

Just following protocol and procedure and once he's cleared he will be back in our plans for 2014!!

We release one dick head only to go out and sign up another.......guess its a requirement for every club to have at least one in your roster, otherwise papers wont make money...

I think it will blow over and des will keep him ,i still don't understand why we signed him with so many good forwards

 

[GeneralLee01]

Guilty or not of striking a cab driver isn't what worries me, I'm more concerned about him out partying till the early hours. Isn't he in pre season training? Renni, nothing good happens after midnight. Go have a beer or two but go home. A pissed footballer out late is a target and is bound for trouble. Last chance and 12 month alcohol ban. Take it or leave it.

a versatile player with skill and experience? the mind boggles

Back in High School the ex-missus and her mates had massive hard ons for Reni and SBW when they were killing it for the Dogs, Maybe this will bring back more members of the female variety?? lol

Well well no surprises here ... a leopard doesn't change its spots does it. When we signed him I said it was disappointing we lowered our brand image by bringing him back. Now once again he is front page news for all the wrong reasons. A senior player out until 5am, drunk, abusive and charged with assault... already sacked by the club for multiple examples of similar offenses AND suspended by the NRL for 2 years for taking illegal drugs. What a recruitment poster boy for our brand image!! Its an absolute bloody disgrace.

... and to top it off all he has to say is "I am sorry" .... which is the only thing he ever says every time he is caught.

Well sorry doesn't cut it Renai. Please take off our club colors and don't disgrace them ever again.

Regardless if both Reni and Tyrone are charged or not, my hopes of a non-disrupted pre-season seemed to have gone out the window in the space of 2 days

Hope the club sorts this out ASAP, I guess on a positive its not something that occurred 2 weeks before the season....as opposed to last year.

With Maitua's court case not scheduled until January 7th, it seems like something that may drag on for a while. I assume the club is waiting until the court case.

Oooh yes hes a gun ,killed it for parra ,lets give him lachie burrs spot great move

 

[blueyedsamurai]

the team needs a utility player who can cover lock,back row,5/8 and centre. He hates parra ffs.

Can somebody please explain to why Inu isn't considered as our Utility??

That way we free up a centre position for Lafai and Inu can become our X factor off the bench.. Sounds good to me.

Because he can only really excel in one position and that a winger. As a centre he always out of position he also played a bit of fullback. If he can't stand in straight line how going to be at fullback keeping in position

 

[KLil]

His not a winger either... I cant imagine how many teams will grubber in behind him.

Have to agree that Inu is a winger and not much else. I've seen him have some great games on the left wing and IMO that's where he should be.

Playing him as right centre this year proved a disaster. Inu was dreadful and took Sam Perrett down the same road.

I know people who know both Reni, Phillips and Walker.
Reni did not strike the cabbie and was in an argument and pushed the cabbie back with one arm out of his space. Reni is a bra boy. Cops don't like bra boys. Put 2 and 2 together and you get an assault charge. It is very disappointing though considering the article earLier this year saying how grateful he was for the 2nd chance.

Phillips claims he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Whether this true or not I can't say as its just wht I've been told 3rd hand

8 pages & I have seen no reference whatsoever to "Always A Derek"

Kennel is slipping tbh.

I think this is totally different. Maitua pushing a cabbie isn't going to polarise the playing group like Barba did. We'll be fine
