James Roberts Drama

[TonyTheJugoslav]

If he doesn't perform this year, punt him ! As for pulling some chics hair , grub move if he did . But if that is it , who cares ! Was an organized event apparently .

No it is not ok on any level, Broncos should not be associated with an individual who believes this is acceptable behaviour.

 

[Accept]

If there is any truth to it, then he has to be shown the door and most likely will. It is eventually going to happen one day anyways. He is a hell of a player and is capable of anything but he isn't worth all the trouble. Just an unwanted distraction when the team is trying to break their premiership drought.

 

[ChewThePhatt]

Even if he didn't assault that woman, he's at a nightclub getting hammered at 1am during the pre-season after coming back from rehab and vowing to fix his alcohol problems, he clearly hasn't. Bye bye Jimmy.

Was he drunk?
Did he do "anything" wrong?

We don't know yet.

As the great @soup says...
Patients

Wouldn't being at the races and being at a casino be a pretty bad idea for someone fresh off a plane from rehab?

 

[broncsgoat]

I was at the casino on Saturday night and theres a pretty decent chance he couldnt get a drink even if he wanted one. Place was fucking packed

Idiotic actually, like getting your stomach stapled and going to Sizzler the moment you are out of hospital. It takes a long ass time to learn self-control and abstain from temptations when you are trying to break an addiction.

Not if he's out to show people he's different. To show people the rehab is working.

If he's guilty, he should be punted. Absolutely.

This could be some lawyer chic from the GC trying to pick up some easy $$$... No police Jimmy, just give me $20,000 and all this will go away.....

We don't shit... Yet.

We don't know shit... yet.

Maybe! But you need to test yourself one day

Under no illusions they were not angels, that however does not mean Broncos as a club should not hold the players to a higher standard now and in the future.

Rum, in this case.

True , but professional sports these days r cut throat and results driven. If he can win games for us and the incident isn't dire , fine him and move on. Really if he didn't have a bad rap or wasn't a public identity , nothing more happens.

Who hasn't done the old reach around to get a mate standing closer to a chick in trouble?

Anyways, she's probably figuring out how much $$$ it's worth to her to keep quiet, the venue will have CCTV, the places have CCTV everywhere now days.

 

[Broncs_Fan]

Can't believe people are defending him. She has likely reported it to the media because she is peeved about what happened to her but doesn't want to go through all the rubbish she would have to do if she reported it to police.

He likely can't remember it because he was blind drunk.

Let's face it, with his track record on the booze it's more likely to be true than not true.

He really can't handle his booze and shouldn't be drinking but obviously just can't help himself.

He has to be sacked. Broncos look really weak if they don't.

well thats alot of assumptions.

Does your first sentence not sum up the thoughts of those contrary to your opinion?

I get what you are saying and if it was James Tedesco or RTS, I might be swayed to your way of thinking, as pathetic a reason as that is.

For me, the point is that he is not providing results that another NRL level centre can't offer, but he is devaluing the brand.

So pulling some chics hair is worse then being caught DUI ? Like I said... if he performs like he should, keep him . If not punt him ! As for devaluing our brand .. ha .. you either love the broncs or you deadset loathe them .

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Verrry quickly running out of patience. What the **** are you doing at a nightclub if you have a drinking problem?
