Just heard on the radio a report from James Hooper who has stated that several clubs are looking to combine forces to oust the two NRL head honchos on the basis of double standards regarding incidents which have blackened the name of the game.
There are clubs that are extremely unhappy as to the outcome of the sexting scandal in that both Souths and the perpetrators of the incident have been given a free pass. It sticks in their craws that no code of conduct was broken in this instance yet other similar incidents were deemed to have broken that said code and thus players and clubs were punished rather harshly.
It is hard not to think that there may certainly be a legitimate gripe from others in the game when you consider past punishments and the time taken to bring them to a close.
This whole thing stinks with every single base covered with some rather wacky explanations as to how the players and the club have thus far escaped sanction.
The timing of the revelation after a time frame of 5 months since it occurred; the emails that were apparently unanswered because they went to junk mail after the original email was replied to and the author assured the complaint would be investigated because the club takes complaints very seriously( that would be a lot of emails for an NRL club and one would think that you would look at the titles of the emails before you deleted them in case one or two did go there to the junk files in error). The accusation that the Roosters had some sort of part in the leaking of information because the complainant was a Roosters fan and had close ties to the club.
The watch shown on the hand of the person exposing themselves is no longer in their possession because they "gifted' it to one of their team mates.
The fact that it was confirmed in the media it was the social media account of the principle player named in the accusation but he did not send it nor participate in it even though another close to him has stated ' he made a mistake'
The claims that the women 'fled' to South Africa to escape questioning when she in fact went there on a holiday.
Let's hope that if this is the case that the clubs take their time with the whole complaint process just like the NRL loves to even though this little hiccup was done and dusted in pretty quick time just because they did not want the finals series under a cloud.
I cannot find any link online but I am sure that it will only be a matter of time.
