Rugby league, home of the mungos, the boofheads and the binge drinking buffoons. Whatever will they come up with next? :lmao:

NRL suspends Roosters' Nate Myles for six games for incident on Central Coast

By Todd Balym
July 06, 2009


The NRL plunged to an embarrassing low with the Sydney Roosters fined $50,000 and Queensland Origin star Nate Myles suspended for six games for defecating on the floor of a Central Coast hotel while in a drunken stupor.

The Queensland forward was found shortly after 8am on Sunday morning, disorientated and naked in a hotel corridor after he had attempted to gain entry into the room of a family who was leaving their accommodation.

A short time after his entry was refused he was found to have defecated elsewhere in the hotel corridor and was later discovered in a fire escape.

Furious NRL chief executive David Gallop has blasted the behaviour of Myles, suspending him until round 24 and banning him from playing in Queensland's Origin III side next Wednesday.

“There can be no ambiguity about the behaviour and there can be no excuse,'' Gallop said.

“The facts around the incident are clear and players have to accept personal responsibility.

“I respect the fact that Nate tried to make amends to the guests involved and that he rang me to apologise but saying sorry simply isn't enough.

“There are many inspirational people in our game from the grass roots to the NRL and they do not deserve to be associated with this sort of behaviour.

“We make no apology for treating each issue on its merits and on the basis of the facts we have at our disposal at the time.''

It is yet another body blow in a season to forget for the NRL and is the third alcohol-related incident involving a Roosters player in as many weeks.

Two weeks ago coach Brad Fittler fined himself $10,000 for his own drunken episode at Townsville when he was half-naked and attempted to enter a woman's room.

Last week hooker Jake Friend and rookie Sandor Earl were charged with assault after a nightclub scuffle - Friend accused of assaulting a female.

Gallop said if Myles had been on official team duty, instead of at the Central Coast volunteering at a junior rugby league clinic, then the $50,000 fine for the Roosters would have been much more severe.

Clubs, too, need to accept that they need to take control of the behaviour within their organisation and as much as the Roosters have acted in this matter the issue of three alcohol-related incidents in three weeks, not to mention other offences in the year, is unacceptable,'' he said.

“If this had been an official team function the fine would certainly have been higher.''

Roosters chief executive Steve Noyce apologised for the behaviour of the club's star forward, who only recently signed a contract extension at the club.

This is an embarrassing position for everyone associated with the Roosters but we have to face up to these issues and we need our senior players to be a part of that process,'' said Noyce.

“We work very hard to reward the faith people place in us and for the most part we achieve that goal.

“Moments like this will only make us work even harder.''

Don't you feel sorry for that poor bastard, David Gallop? He must get out of bed in the morning and think what fuck up does he have to confront that day.

Gallop's probably on the piss with them, he just has people to cover up his shenanigans.

Heard on the radio that Malcolm Turnbull twittered a joke about Nate making the number 2 jersey his own for Origin 3.

OK, time to 'fess up. Has ANYONE here ever been so drunk they wandered naked around their house / apartment block / hotel or whatever and took a random dump in a hall / corridor? What is WRONG with these guys??? Man I've been pretty pissed many, many times, but this stuff just beggars belief. Then again, if your coach just about does the same thing, hardly surprising I guess.
David Gallop isn't paid enough.
The NRL should get JON - he'd sort them the fuck out!

Sort of makes you all warm and fuzzy when you reflect on the LT saga - no bad press unless LT divulges, just a 'please be on your way and close the door on the way out'.
The ARU come out as quite the manager and PR impressario.

I once woke up on the couch with wet pants.

I thought - ah, so it's finally happened has it? Then I realised that I had got myself a glass of water and had fallen asleep holding it in my lap. Bad, but not rugby league bad.

I was stuck on a Sydney train once and desperate for a leak - if I'd gone out between carriages I would have missed my stop. Fate pissed in my pocket that night, I can tell you :)

I've been paralytic, stoned off my face and even high (once upon a foolish youth time) but I have NEVER taken a dump in a hotel corridor.

If I did that, my owner would have rubbed my nose in it. I'd prefer the 6 weeks.

REMORSEFUL Rooster Nate Myles is adamant he doesn't have a alcohol problem and slammed suggestions of a booze culture at the embattled club.

Myles has been banned for six weeks for defecating on the floor of a Central Coast hotel while in the nude last weekend, and the Roosters have been fined by the NRL $50,000 following their third alcohol-fuelled incident in as many weeks.

Speaking exclusively to The Sun-Herald, Myles apologised unreservedly for the hotel atrocity but said he wouldn't be changing the way he socialises in the future.

"I have no problem with alcohol, not at all," Myles said.

"Having a drink once every two or three weeks is not a problem with alcohol. That was one of my nights out, I haven't had a night out for a long time.

"I really don't think alcohol is a problem in my life. This latest incident was purely accidental.

"I wasn't out in the street, hurting anyone or kicking people, doing anything like that.

"We've had a good night, I've gone home and I've stuffed up in the morning in a disoriented state.

"It's not something that needs to be cut out of my life."

It's not the first time Myles has been involved in an alcohol-related incident. He was dropped to Newtown earlier this season for breaching the Roosters' strict drinking policy - which has subsequently been scrapped - and has a drink-driving conviction against his name.

OK, so let's look in the mirror for a second. I've been done for drink driving. And I've been dropped to the feeder club for drinking. Then I've made the front pages for defecating in a hotel and not knowing where I am.

Hmmm ... let's see ... yeah, I'm sweet, no wucken furries. :thumb

Melbourne and Australian rugby league star Greg Inglis has been charged with assaulting his girlfriend.

Victoria Police would not confirm Inglis as the charged man but said a 22-year-old Altona Meadows man had been arrested about midday today.

‘‘He was bailed to appear at the Sunshine Magistrates' Court on Tuesday on charges of recklessly causing injury and unlawful assault,'' a Victoria Police spokeswoman said.

According to reports, Inglis' girlfriend was left with a black eye but the police spokesperson would not confirm the nature of the alleged injuries or when and where the alleged incident took place.

The NRL has been made aware of allegations against Inglis but is awaiting further information from the NRL club before commenting.

The Seven Network reported the Melbourne Storm board was meeting tonight to discuss the allegations.

It is yet another major blow to the NRL's credibility as Inglis had been one of two stars for the code's major advertising campaign.

The Queensland Origin star and Manly's Brett Stewart were the faces of the campaign filmed in the offseason, Inglis promoted to top billing in March when Stewart was charged with sexual assault.

The NRL re-worked the $1.5 million campaign to remove Stewart from the advertising and focus entirely on Inglis.

Well, that's the problem. They're targeted at 14-15, told they will be superstars, realise they don't think they need a proper education, get a contract at 16-17, lots of spare time and money, get taken under the wing of an older, entrenched knob-end at the club to show them just what they can get away with, given most things for free, hardly ever told "No" and, golly-gosh they turn out to be clueless tools. Who'd-a thunk it?
