        • Pokies suck. Not just boring, they're rigged and addictive!

    • The cliche of "the Degenerate Gambler" is cliche for a reason

  • It is beyond belief that the NRL has allowed a player that has been charged with betting indiscretions and has the ability to influence the outcome of a game to continue to play.

    It is not just whether he can control a win or loss but the prop bets you can have ie margin, try scorers etc

  • Not saying Api is dirty, but he has played some shockers.

    • Awww..don't be hatin' on the dirty hookers Kurupt

  • I wonder what gear he was slinging...in Queensland...while being surveilled...in Queensland. If he has been charged with supply, why can he play? 

    There is more to this, but I dought that all the dirty laundry will be aired....something-something NRL damage control

  • Roosters players involved 

  • Well now some Roosters players involved I wonder how Politis deals with it all. 

    Robinson wanted him gone and seemed he was seeping through into the rest of the squad it seems.

    See how this effects them for the future

    • I don't think this is Brandon Smith spreading bad culture at the club. It's stupidity of getting caught. They all do drugs like most young people.
