That the day after Grant was released from hospital he took flowers and a slab of beer around to the peoples house that called the ambulance for him. How come that part of the story is not reported in Melbourne or even mentioned on the Fox Sports News site.
Doesn't fit their agenda.

But yes well done Harry on that wonderful gesture.

I would say they went to the awards night to keep an eye on him and give him the support he needs. Every young person has does something stupid

Just saw vision of one of our boys overseas. Not the worst but will be in some trouble.

Is this the Nelson incident? How do we know it will be 4-8 weeks? And does that take into account international games as well?

Apparently Vunivalu was king hit in an unprovoked attack. The club owner has come out in defense of Nelson and handed CCTV footage to give people the full story.
I know it may be wrong but I’d find it very difficult to walk away.

Not gonna make comment on the incident but it will be tough to see any circumstances where NAS doesn't miss games for us to start the season. Which would obviously be disappointing.

The SMH are reporting that NAS will miss three international games - one against Australia and two against Great Britain.

Not sure how they know that when the Storm and Integrity Unit investigation is ongoing...

Still no formal closure to the NAS issue... He has received a somewhat surprising amount of support from current/former NRL players. Players generally are probably sick to death of being goaded into altercations by drunk, bogan f*ckwits - otherwise known as the core NRL base.

Greenberg sounds like he's not very sympathetic though...

Amazing advice. Thanks Todd!

I wish Todd would just walk away from the NRL...
