I know the game is more professional these days but their is no harm in a player having a beer or two to relax as long as he keeps a professional attitude whilst he is employed as a professional RL player both away from and at the club.
no probs them drinkin its when they don't play with heart langer used to be out in stocky heath the night b4 but still played well
It tickles me that people (including our own supporters) think it is unique to us.
Ask Saints fans about Long's antics. Ask Wigan fans about Hock. Unfortunately, in a droup of people the law of averages will dictate there will be a few dimwits.
Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union.

It's a metaphor for "lack of professionalism and dedication".
I would love to know if the players were allowed a mickeyup on the bus home. About 5 years ago under PC the players were allowed to drink heavily on the bus back from London, as Mr Briers will be able to testify to.
