Futhermore, if you are going to be a moderator within these forums then I suggest you take more care in quoting forum users etc.
E.G "MEDIA has proven him guilty"

Ok you didnt say it in those exact words with all the capital letters...but agian for the visualy impaired:Originally Posted by Kingytek
Its the exact same thing.I mean when it comes to the media, anyone in NRL in trouble it's guilty before proven innocent
If you say so! Good luck with that whole moderator thing.
Get the thread back on track from this point onward.
Kingytek, if you have a problem a member of the moderator team contact myself via PM or email to discuss. Bringing it to the open forum brings nothing positive to the debate your having.
BTW, a post like this is not needed: "Futhermore, if you are going to be a moderator within these forums then I suggest you take more care in quoting forum users etc." I will look after in-house forum issues Again, if you have a issue with a member or one of the moderators let me know about it - being perceived as a forum cop is not something I would be encouraging from a member.
Thanks

GOWER INVESTIGATION TO TAKE SEVERAL DAYS
Source: Panthers.com.au
Dec 22 ? Penrith?s general manager for Rugby League, Mick Leary, said today that it will take at least several days to complete an inquiry into allegations about the behaviour of Craig Gower during a charity golf tournament on the Sunshine Coast earlier this week.
Craig took part in the tournament while on holiday.
?Until our investigation is complete there is nothing more I can say,? Mick said.
In the article it says "....during a charity golf tournament on the Sunshine Coast earlier this week." But supposedly the alleged groping and other incidents took place the 2 nights before....Originally Posted by super cronk

I wasnt there so i cant say if Gower actually did anything listed in the above article. But Queensland Police state that the service had not received any complaints and could not act.
Now if I was Wayne Pearce I would be getting the police involved ASAP especially if any of the events occured to his daughter. That is the part that I dont understand, the police are not doing investigations but the Penrith Panthers are!!!! It just doesnt make sense to me
This is an interesting one.. but like Deegan I will keep quiet until the full details are out.. it seems though this story is more true than before, Wayne Pearce is not one to backstab people.. then once again we have an issue and we will have to apologise to the reporter we all took shots at on Tuesday..
I think that 'fine' Sunshine Coast journalist deserves an apology don't you think...
No, not really, the accusations we are now hearing was not made known to us in the opening piece from the journo.Originally Posted by Steelers

AUSTRALIAN rugby league halfback Craig Gower has rejected a report he was "as full as Santa's toy sack on Christmas Eve" while at a charity golf event.
The Sunshine Coast Daily newspaper said today Gower competed in yesterday's first round at the two-day Jack Newton Celebrity Golf Classic at Peregian Waters "still feeling the effects of what must have been a heavy Sunday night".
The Penrith skipper arrived at the opening tee and according to the newspaper "put down his Crown Lager for long enough to drill his opening tee shot straight down the middle of the first".
A disappointed Gower today said he had done nothing wrong.
"I'm up here to have a good time and that's it. What, I can't go out and enjoy myself?," he said.
"At the end of the day I am a normal bloke. I'm no better than anybody else.
"As long as I respect others, that's the main thing.
"Just because you turn up with a beer in your hand, that means you're full?"
A Penrith spokesman said the National Rugby League club had not received any complaint.
"The fact that Craig Gower turned up (for the event) when he is on holiday speaks for itself," he said.
"If he had a few drinks the night before he is quite entitled to given he is on holiday and has just finished a very long and hard representative season."
The Golf Classic's publicity consultant Kristy Doyle also said there had been no complaints regarding Gower.
"Craig wasn't the only one with a beer in his hand playing golf yesterday," she said.
"They are all winding down from their heavy schedules. There is no trouble at all and there never has been at these tournaments."
Alcohol consumption in rugby league had come under the microscope after ex-Australian coach Wayne Bennett spoke about binge drinking's affect on the NRL last week.
"I'm sick of the drunks and I'm sick of our game being dragged through every media outlet in the country every time some guy behaves badly," Bennett said.
The Golf Classic ? which concluded today ? has attracted a host of celebrities including Wally Lewis, Wendell Sailor and Alicia Molik.
All money raised by the tournament is donated to Diabetes Australia and the Jack Newton Junior Golf Foundation.
Today though is a hellova' lot different as we all know
