Paul Kent - Players Can't Have It Both Ways

[The DoggFather]

Kent is right.
Consider this.
Suppose you own a company and you sell a particular product.
Part of your marketing strategy is to advertise and associate your company with the NRL for various reasons.
The reason you do this is to maximise sales.
You obviously pay the NRL/clubs to associate yourself with them with the hope that it maximises sales.
The NRL players then RECEIVE these marketing/sponsorship dollars and therefore are aiding in the promotion of your companies products.
Wether they like it or not, the fact that they accept this money, the players AUTOMATICALLY become role models.
You cannot accept there money and be the face of that company and think you can act in anyway you want.
Players cannot have it both ways.

It was in private, 3 storeys up. The public didn't see him. The fucking media made it public.

Clubs should start hiring Thugs to take out these pesky Photographer's hiding in the bushes......or just toss poop at them..

How hard is it to arrange an private end of year event, unless the intention was to take it up to the media and public and as such put oneself in the spotlight.

We've done it before, the result was media with helicopters and rifle mics

I suppose it is as hard as planning to be competitive and play to our supporters expectations.

Maybe you've been under a rock, but there are a few reasons we performed poorly this year, end of season benders is not one of them.

We lost on both counts, 2019 is already starting to hurt, Cant believe we cant learn from our past. Go the Dogs in 2019.

2019 is looking pretty good to me, not sure what you're basing this on, the fact is the media were looking to hammer the boys no matter where they went or what they did, nobody was hurt, nobody was abused and the only reason the kids might see these photos is because of the same flogs who took them and then complained that kids might see them.

Fark the hypocrites.

Go the Dogs.

LOL I can imagine it's similar to the images that are burned intoo my retinas when @south of heaven told me to google "ugly midget porn", because the first images that come up were hilarious.

I still curse the day curiosity got the better of me on that one.

I am not going to google.

Me no looky.

You just want others to suffer with you.

 

[Kaz]

It is time our CEO stands up and cancelled the contracts of the player, players, staff who damage our brand, our image and perception of the family club, enough is enough.
No action from our club, will jeopardise our membership and as such our performances moving forward.
Quick decisive action will send a string message of zero tolerance from the family club.

FMD.

You won't have players etc next season.

I know not all our your players where naked etc, but they knew & saw what was happening & did nothing.

Get off you high fucking moral ground.

Are you an ex board member.

True my man..but we did see a player..don’t know his name..spewing all over the place..pissed out of his brain..in full public view.. It just isn’t a good look.. And please can anyone tell me what makes young blokes wanna get naked and wave their dicks at their team mates..I honestly don’t get that.. I just shake my head..the one on top of my shoulders that is..at this..

If I was running the joint..I’d have a place where the press can’t see in..where they can look at each other’s dicks all night long...because the press are gunna find a way..they are public figures..and they have targets on their heads..whether they like it or not..they represent the club and the League..and they get cash from both..they do have a responsibility to the brand and their employers..

Dont get me wrong, I don't condone what happened in any way, tbh flashing your cock to the boys is pretty gay.

Montoya throwing up on the street and sleeping is a bad look as it was actually in public.

Is he not a role model aswell then ? He accepts money from his media organisation that reports on the game... if the game didn't exist then nrl 360 doesn't, he wouldn't have an avenue to write such pieces. Fact is he shouldn't be able to have it both ways...
This article has no credibility due to his actions towards his first point of reference

Shut the fuck up!. Mate the players were having a good time at a private function, shit happened and now the club needs to come together and protect Elliot and the boys from all the backlash instead of turning away from him, there no family club if you don't stick by your own.

I think it’s homo too..just bizarre.. But you are %100 right about the press.. They’re like vultures..they scavenge on anything..but when the spotlight turns on their doings..they run away crying for privacy.. Assholes..

Firstly, it was a private function held out of view of the general public.

Secondly, Kent is a complete and utter hypocrite who makes a living off the game whilst also working for a media organisation that tries to slander it by sensationalising things. In other words, he tries to have it both ways.

You are talking complete and utter crap. Were you hiding under a rock when our club held a private function at belmore and these muck rakers still managed to infiltrate it a few years ago? Stop talking nonsense and blaming everyone but the unethical, nosy bastards who created the problem.

ZOMG: Racist comment.

I will see myself out.

Spare me.

The clubs sell merchandise & the NRL take a % of it, so it works both ways.

If people say the players are role models, the world is fucked.

A role model to me, it someone like your Dad, Mum etc.

The NRL sell the rights to the game to the highest bidder, yet keep most of the money & the clubs/players get diddly squat.

Without the players/clubs there would be no NRL etc.

My team has, his name is Matt Lodge.

Sorry but, its like they said that banning the shoulder charge would destroy the spectacle and brutality of the game, I don't mean to be a smart Ass with this reply either.

Can’t believe buzz made that comment on Coffs Harbour and Hughes

Law suit anyone ?

It's funny to because they celebrated JT last week and no mention of Coffs at all. Yet Coffs suits their agenda this week so it's relevant :/
