OK, so I'm confused. Is what you are saying that the Players Code of Conduct only applies in Australia (and maybe New Zealand)? That they can do anything they like outside of Australia and there's nothing, not a thing, that the NRL can do to enforce the required Conduct? The reason I ask is because they would be applying the terms of a legal Australian contract in Australia, does it matter where the contrary conduct happened?In theory of course, but you can’t apply the law where you don’t have jurisdiction. Hopefully since that incident they’ve found a way to de-register any player who commits a similar act regardless of where it was committed.
To expand the question, what about games played overseas, can the NRL apply suspensions for on field discressions?
