dont get me wrong i agree its a different ball game now, and im not defending him you but you can,t stop players having a drink

This year alone Aspinwall has had suspended sentence for assault, been jailed for dangerous driving and now suspended by Hull FC, is he that good a player that we should ignore all of this and keep him. I think not, get rid

I follow a lot of players on twitter, from a lot of clubs. Believe me, a lot of first grade SL players are out on most weekends, and not afraid to put it in the public eye.

The blokes a nob! If anybody else conducted themselves in such a manner in any other walk of life they would be unemployed.



Sack the idiot!

I see no problem with this, like the rest of us they enjoy a few and know how to behave!

I don't see any problem either, in the off season that is. But obviously, not all know how to behave!

Is this a joke?

no

So we have separate behavioural codes based on each players ability?

Two points:



1. Not all of the rest of us 'like a few', and not many (if any) of the rest of us are professional athletes.

2. Very clearly, not all of them know how to behave.



IMO drinking should be kept to a bare minimum or eliminated altogether once full-time training starts. Alcohol and pro sports don't mix well.

No, but we are getting to be.



Raynor - retained through a conviction for assault in a nightclub, ultimately binned pending a further criminal conviction whilst in our last chance saloon

Tansey - released from Leeds with a "reputation". Binned off after multiple disciplinaries involving alcohol, in saloon mentioned above

Gleeson - signed with a "reputation" - released after a handful of appearances

Let's not even bring up the Reardon signing





On top of this:

Westerman - signed with a "reputation"

Seymour - signed with known problems, involved in a serious incident just before arriving

Aspinwall with more than one conviction to his name.



The "joke" for me is that, given our form in dodgy signings and the subsequent fallout, why we insist on a Groundhog Day scenario.

'eh

Not sure what your post is about, [ugenerally[/u most adults like a few drinks, obviously we are not all professional athletes. I agree not all of them know how to behave. Alcohol can mix as long as it is done in moderation most adults be it sports professionals or not know this.
