Any credibility the NewsRL/wankos had has officially been destroyed IMO. This sorta shit makes me sick at the best of times but why have players from other clubs been suspended for much less and these arseclowns copped nothing??? Its farking sick. 
The games finished in my view. Fark these carnts, I will NEVER contribute again while News are involved. The Wankos will just win another comp and Melba will win the next one. FARK IT.
Some may have thought I was a farkwitt before, well peoples its only just begun. Ive had enough. Enjoy the season peoples. GO EASTS.

Bronco pair slip past suspension
Wayne Heming, Brisbane | April 29, 2009
NICK Kenny and Steve Michaels would be hurting after dragging their proud club, Brisbane Broncos, into the headlines for all the wrong reasons.
They'd be feeling embarrassed and disappointed for letting their families and teammates down, just when Brisbane was about to cash in on some positive publicity after taking control of the outright lead in the National Rugby League premiership. Instead, the club has been forced to defend its decision not to suspend them given a pledge before the season to come down hard on the next player to offend.
As coach Ivan Henjak noted, their behaviour after a drunken night out in the northern NSW's Byron Bay hardly constituted a hangable offence.
But in the current climate of rugby league players ending up in court on numerous alcohol-related charges from drink-driving to glassing attacks and sexual assault charges, any offence is going to be widely reported.
Brisbane went through a turbulent period late last year with a number of their star players making headlines for off-field dramas.
Club officials declared they had drawn a line in the sand, vowing the next offender would be treated "very seriously".
The Broncos have defended what could be construed as a backflip by saying neither Kenny nor Michaels had breached the club's alcohol policy or code of conduct.
Rockhampton-born Kenny, who has worked incredibly hard to win a starting spot in Brisbane's pack, was last week named the NRL's One Community's Good Guy of the month.
Those aware of the work he does behind the scenes have no doubt he has the leadership qualities to captain the Broncos. Unlike some players who take their success and give little back, Kenny is heavily involved in a program called "Queenslanders in the Community" helping troubled teens — some in jail — find their way.
Michaels is also well respected for the work he does off the field with the Broncos.
He has been an ambassador for Epilepsy Queensland for the past three years, attending numerous charity events. "'They're two good fellas who do a hell of a lot out in the community," said Henjak.
