He'd be mad to go down this road, though.
He's been kicked out of the game, a move that has been received positively by the majority of fans. Even the NRL don't want him.
So he thinks he can fight this and just walk back into the game? Don a gold jersey and head to the World Cup? Score tries and soak up standing ovations?
Nope. He's cooked. Yeah he might win a court case, but he's already lost in court of public opinion.
And by 'court of public opinion' I don't just mean a few woke Twitter commentators. All my mates think it was the right call too. People at the office agree with it. Blokes on the street.
Even if he wins his appeal, the Waratahs and Wallabies could surely just stand him down for the rest of the season on full pay.
