Paul Kient at it again

Weak leadership at the top in the NRL is a major concern, writes Paul Kentan hour agoPaul KentThe Daily TelegraphSubscriber onlyParramatta stood by its decision to allow Semi Radradra to return home to Fiji to visit his sick father even though he missed his court appearance for domestic violence.Radradra’s own sister claimed Dad was not too ill. Magistrate Tim Keady soon showed Parramatta’s decision for what it was, initially saying Radradra’s letter explaining the illness “wasn’t very convincing”.The backstory, of course, is the Eels want to keep Radradra happy at all costs, particularly after the intense interest from French rugby, and so they went soft on discipline.Just like Green was forced to at the Cowboys. It took the magistrate to restore some integrity to it all, doing the Eels’ job for them.While he ultimately accepted Radradra’s absence was legitimate after receiving further evidence from his father’s doctor, he still ordered Radradra to surrender his passport.

  • What happened with Green at the Cowboys?
  • This knob will never let up, he is an absolute disgrace!

    Will be interesting if he keeps his spot on NRL 360 with that other drip Ikin?

    • That show has gone down the tubes big times.

      If they don't change it, including the hosts, many won't be watching it.

      Fox has leap frogged 9 in everything NRL but this pathetic show is holding them back.

      Funny when they have players night and Marshall is on, particularly when he couldn't get a start with Saints!

      The disagreements between Kent and Ikin are so staged and pre discussed it's not funny.

      Horrible viewing.

  • The courts accepted it in the so the eels in hindsight did the right thing by their client. Any employer with a sense of compassion would do the same
    • Listen 86 - you have just broken rule 57 of the 1EE code - FACTS are NOT to be quoted.

      Lucky its the ORF SEEZUN or the mods would be all over you like a bandage on a boil.

  • When is the club going to call this fuckwit out??   Pathetic bitter loser.

  • This Kent contradicks himself at the end.
  • Must be slow news week at daily planet lol!! where's the goofy editor at large Clark Kent he's been pretty quiet no one hand feeding him
  • Yvonne for 360.
