Quote: don't like the idea of suspending players though, unless they've done something that makes that untennable. For example trying to hurt one of your own players in training or passing information to other teams.
I think in most cases a better course of action is for them to repay their sins through their performances. An example is Scott Moore who is playing outstandingly well for Saints. If any sanctions against them are required, make them financial or community based
What sort of message does that send out to other players who abide by they rules? I've said my piece before. If you are sacked by your club for alcohol related issues then the RFL should suspend that player from playing for a year and send them to youngsters teaching them about alcohol. To be sacked by your club you will have had to break 3 or 4 chances.
It's becoming a serious problem and we are heading for where the NRL were last year. Glad to see Tansey's taken his 5th chance well.
