Okunbor/CHN megathread

What about elliott mate

Same shit, soonsors walked, brand damage.

But we should reward him with a new contract?

I agree. Was trying to stay on topic of these two. The thing with a lot our players is a self importance issue. We are not going well as a team and our position on ladder reflects this. But to loose partnerships on top of poor performance. Some of them seem to need a reality check. We pay there wages and they need to start reflecting there appreciating this by at least behaving. I hope he sorts it and realised some the damage they are doing. Not many of us get a chance to be payed for what we love. Are these gentlemen thinking that they are lucky or we will except what ever they dish up?

Definitely not a big upgraded one like hes hinting at wanting with his "young family now" comments. Another player who clearly has no intention on repaying the club which has shown faith in him and stuck by him when he was dead average for a long time. Not to mention the off field dramas. Footballers have such small selective memories

Fuck all the morals how about holding him accountable for what he's done to the club? It wasn't the clubs decision to hand down his punishment it was the NRL. We simply acted like any other club would act in the same situation. He was apart of the reason we lost a major sponsorship, disrupted our season preparation and lost the club some reputation. He let his team mates, his club and his fans down plain and simple. He should be more than happy to try amend his wrongs and he (if true) wants to look elsewhere? It speaks volumes about his character. Who would want to go out and play next to a guy who treats his club and team mates like that?

If Okonbur didn't happen. CHN doesn't get deregerstered for bring a girl back to the hotel that he met on tinder. If all the NRL players who did this were deregerstered there would be no comp. This is incredibly common.

Classic Hooper article here saying CHN never wants to wear a Dogs jersey again yet there isn’t a single direct quote.

I reckon he is gone but that article and fabricated quote is laughable

Yeah I know right he just can't say he doesn't want to play for the Dogs it has to be he never wants to wear the jersey again!.

I think he's gone too.

Kiwi Test forward Corey Harawira-Naera is understood to be fuming at Canterbury-Bankstown and intends to tell the club he no longer wants to wear the Bulldogs jersey.
Fox Sports has learned the Kiwi Test backrower is surprised at the way the Bulldogs left him out in the cold after the NRL deregistered his contract in the pre-season.


Harawira-Naera is now signed with Canterbury-Bankstown until the end of 2022 but rival clubs are circling and have been told he is perplexed at the way the Bulldogs cut ties with him.

Fox Sports has been told no Canterbury-Bankstown bosses contacted Harawira-Naera after he was sacked by the club. The Bulldogs board is believed to be keen to keep him despite parting ways with him along with winger Jayden Okunbor over the Port Macquarie incident.

Okunbor is reportedly keen to resume his career at the Bulldogs when his suspension finishes after round 14.

Totally understandable. CHN picked up a girl from a dating app "tinder". An app which requires you to be 18 years of age and over. He then went and had his way with her and that was it. His only mistake if that's what you want to call it was that he broke team protocol by having a girl in his hotel room.
The club in trying look like the good guys and score brownie points with the NRL and community including sponsors took the high and mighty road. It's all backfired now and rightly so.
Okenbur should never be allowed back and what he did was disgusting immoral and goes against everything good BUT CHN was not in the same boat and his actions were worthy of nothing more than a slap on the wrist.

Spot on my friend. Spot on. Great post.

Cheers Tassie

 

[hackenbush]

Yes did he deserve a fine & suspension. Did he deserve the suspension he received.. I believe no.
If the club did all they could to appeal the suspension, stayed in contact with CHN, supported him during what would have been a stressful period in his life, then he would want to repay the club. From reports circulating it seems that he feels the opposite happen. If this is true, then I do not blame him if he wishes to leave. Most people standing in his shoes would think the same.

Fuck him . He either plays with us this year or no one . If he wants a release for next year that’s fine because we will use the cap money to sign someone else .

But the club gains absolutely nothing by letting him go elsewhere for the rest of this year so grow some fucking balls and make him play for us or sit out the year !!

 

[CrittaMagic69]

I think we're going to release CHN to the Tigers and ask for Chee-Kam.

I hope he goes and plays for the Roosters and wins a premiership. The club and current admin deserve nothing less.

LOLLLLL this club having some balls ? LOLLLLL
IF this club had balls they would have stood by CHN from day one. He didn't do anything more than break team protocol by having a girl he met on Tinder a dating app which requires you to be at least 18 years of age in his hotel room. If the club had balls they wouldn't have painted CHN with the same brush as Okenbur. This club has no balls and the current admin and CEO deserve everything bad that happens.

CHN taken all post relating to Dogs off his Instagram, a few Panthers, Kiwi, Maori post left. Looks like he's wiped us

 

[GA45]

If he wants to go so be it but we better trade with the other team for someone decent back.

 

[Dog4life77]

So we'll said l must admit I felt for the guy and would have understood if he moved on till I read this. Man the fuck up accept your part, make up for it through your actions as they really did hurt our club.
New Zealanders are a proud people and I'm one of them, do you think that the All Blacks and the New Zealand rugby public would have given you a pass.
Where's your Mana brother, it lies with this club, show us you still have some

100% Che

That has been the case since the beginning of the incident. The first step was him deactivating his account.

Good on him. I'd want nothing to do with a club that threw him to the wolves either.
