Toddy screwed

[Guest]

Just heard the Sharks are to erect a fountain at Shark Park in Toddy's honour.

I would of thought a bubbler would be more appropriate in this case

[Chook Norris]

Actually, he didn't care. Towards the end, it was who would go first, the club's patience or the team out of the finals.

I would say Carney initially did care. Except his concentration span lasted no longer than 5 minutes. What makes you think Ferguson is different? He is just as idiotic. Remember how he joined Islam and vowed to give up alcohol forever? Do you remember what came of that?

He is the same sh*t with a slightly different smell

Our club really needs to tread carefully with Ferguson. Set very strict terms and ensure he sticks with them. He too, like Carney, has been given chance after chance in his professional career. One foot out of the line at our club and I would have one finger on that contract preparing to rip it up. Our club simply can't tolerate that crap anymore. We've had a bad record in the past

He has a public image. Corporate organisations are involved with the club he represents. Those who think nothing is wrong with what he was doing are imbeciles.

And does it get under your skin when someone has a different opinion to yours on a matter that doesn't have anything to do with you? You're welcome to challenge anyones opinion but calling some imbeciles because you don't agree with their view makes you look like a fool. So get back to your cave and mind your own because you don't speak for anyone but yourself.

Well not with the club he represented, Sharks have no sponsors.

As for Ferguson well his record is hardly as bad as Carney's and that was at Canberra. Even Carney post-Canberra was much less of a douche, he screwed up a couple times but he did nothing against the law, perhaps a drink-driving fine but nothing major (I'm not defending Carney btw).

Ferguson at the right club would be unstoppable.

Ferguson+Robinson=Win

What if the person concerned were one of our biggest stars? and had done this as a dare, amongst mates.

Would we sack him?

Stewart's drink driving conviction recently didn't faze Manly or the NRL too much.
Drink driving is a crime.

Burgess' some might call it 'lewd' photo put on social media didn't faze Souths or the NRL too much...wasn't it the same Burgess who smasshed a car's window on the Gold Coast?

Gallen's actions didn't faze the Sharks or the NRL too much.

Gallen in wee bit of strife with law


CRONULLA international forward Paul Gallen has allegedly brought the club into disrepute again after police caught him urinating near the head of a man in Sydney CBD on Friday night.

It is understood Gallen's alleged ''victim'' was a friend who was lying on the pavement in an intoxicated state after a night in town.

Sharks chairman Damian Irvine said he was ''filthy'' and ''gutted'' after learning that the off-field actions of a senior player who toured with the Kangaroos for the recent Four Nations.



Carney could be forgiven for seeing himself as a victim.

'Lewd act'?
Is that a lewd act?
Call me an imbecile, it's water off a crocodile's back...that's not a 'lewd act' in my book...[when only in the company of dare/skylarking friends].

'Lewd act' ...I expected to see something else when I searched for the photo.


Oh well, unfortunately Toddles, seemingly captured by 'boganism' and 'alcoholism', couldn't meet the high and perfect standards required at this point in time by NRL clubs/sponsors/the NRL.

So, out of rugby league he was able to at least buy and own a place in which to live for the rest of his life?
With Newstart allowance[he might struggle to find employment now] he should be able to manage.

[bondi-boy]

If Ferguson's contract is not registered by the NRL when the Roosters present it to the NRL today [radio news today]...he would have a case to be blaming Carney.

Part of Todd's trouble was that he wasn't married or didn't have a steady sweetheart.

Blake Ferguson is hoping to make a return to the NRL and believes he is a changed man

ON THE very day that Todd Carney selfdestructed, another rugby league villain moved a step closer to his dream of a rugby league comeback and redemption.
Blake Ferguson appears to be a changed man. His court case for indecent assault is now over with no conviction recorded.

He has found love in 23-year-old Bianca Menniti with the pair now sharing a home in Sydney’s eastern suburbs.

He is off the drink too — a far cry from six months ago when his life was spiralling so far out of control that Ferguson himself thought he would finish up in jail.

He says it was only the influence of boxer Anthony Mundine and his new partner that saved him from prison.

“If it wasn’t for Choc (Mundine) I would have finished up in jail for sure,” he said.

“I was playing up every weekend. Everything was spiralling out of control. I didn’t even have any respect for myself.

“Because Choc’s family I respect him a lot more. I listened to his advice and finally got my act together.”

in the shire its common knowledge hes been on the meth pipe for a while now so its not just booze? but at 28 you do have to learn to make some good decisions too!

He doesn't look like it.

He looks fit.

Seriously what a crock of shit!

Spot on.

BB is either a hyprocrite or the biggest troll ever.
He applauds his heros Jones and Hadley who are both anti-hooligan / boofhead crusaders. He goes on about people with potty mouths being indecent and disgusting but apparently what Carney did is just 'kids' skylarking.
Carney is NOT a kid anymore. That excuse is now pathetic. He has had ample chances. Does urinating on patrons constitute skylarking? Does running away from the cops constitute skylarking. Drink driving?? How many chances does the bloke get?

[mightyrooster]

And BB since you love quoting ad nauseum, here you go:

In July 2008 it was alleged he urinated on a man in a Canberra nightclub yet the complaint was mysteriously withdrawn.

A year earlier Carney was involved in a police chase in which the man who was passenger in his car, fellow Raiders player Steve Irwin was sacked yet Carney kept his contract despite being the driver of the vehicle.

Irwin later claimed he was urged by Raiders officials to tell police Carney was not drunk so that he would not land a jail sentence.

Even in February 2009, when Carney went on a vandalism spree in his home town, Goulburn, jumping on a car bonnet and damaging a store entrance, the 12-month jail sentence he received was suspended.

When he was banned from playing football in 2009 he was still given permission to head to north Queensland and play for the Atherton Roosters and when he set a man’s pants on fire on New Year’s Eve the matter was investigated but no chances laid.

He slipped through more escape hatches than a submarine commander yet with every escape came a growing sense that no matter how deep the hole he dug from himself there would always be a springboard at the bottom of it.

To echo others,

You're an imbecile.

High and perfect standards required to play in the NRL? No. The bloke is a loose cannon who has been through incident after incident after incident. Todd never respected the privileges given to him.

I laugh at people who say he was unfairly targeted. He did it all to himself through his career.

[novice chook]

Well you've all heard of water recycling - the Drunkard bogan has just taken it to another level and has invented booze recycling. Maybe he'd run out of cash so figured he may as well 'double dip' on what he'd already paid for.

I'm just surprised it's taken this long for him to finally get caught out (again). It's not as if he's been off the grog since he's been at the Sharks.
