MItchell Pearce reportedly on Sky News soon.

Are the NRL allowed to drug test out of season? and even if he did test positive, the first punishment is a suspended fine, and some rehabilitation.

Hardly worth leaving the country for.

In the NRL first strike is kept in house and does not need to be reported, 2nd strike you are out, maybe that is the reason for his early departure ? who knows?

Isn't it reckless all these agenda driven journos trying to put times and figures to punishments they have zero say in anyways.

I'd have thought the experts Pearceorf have been seeing would advise when and if it's best for his return to the game.

Surely the NRL would advise punishment in conjunction with the experts, as would our club.

Who knows the people he's been rehabbing with could advise a quicker return to his employment than the agenda haversrequire to satisfy their, in fact I am having trouble getting my head around that, what is the satisfaction they feel???

Strange days indeed, most perculiar momma.

What experts? Rehab in Thailand, that is an oxymoron in itself lol, surely your smarter than that backwards

Actually he did assault a woman when she said no to his advances and he grabbed her and kissed her, he also pissed his pants on her coach which damaged her property.

Are we now going to use the Brett Stewart defence ? "He was too drunk to make his police statement, therefore his confession will be confetti"

how did he assault her. i havent seen a charge laid by her. so its not assault. she didnt resist in any way. allegedy pissed his pants, could of spilled his drink or got her drink on him when he had the kiss. Damaged her property. hahaha, she has a yap yap dog sitting on the couch. more damage from the dog.

The Roosters confirmed via a statement that Pearce would continue with his rehabilitation and will return to full-time training with the club on Monday March 7.

“After four weeks in an intensive rehabilitation facility, Mitchell’s well-being remains paramount,” Roosters CEO, John Lee said.

“On the basis of medical advice received by the Club, and subject to the satisfactory assessment of his continuing rehabilitation, Mitchell will resume training at the Club from Monday, March 7.”

There is no word yet on when the 26-year-old will return to action nor has the club stated what fine if any will be handed down.

The club confirmed that Pearce will miss the opening clash against the local rivals the Rabbitohs this weekend and will make a decision when more information can be obtained.

“In regards to any proposed suspension, the Roosters Board has reserved its decision until such time that further information can be obtained in relation to similar incidents.” the club statement read.

“The Board also noted that following the January 26 incident, Mitchell is entering his second month without training or involvement with the Club. He was also unavailable for the NRL Auckland Nines; the Club’s training camp in Dubai; the World Club Series; and he will miss the Club’s opening fixture against Souths.”

It’s anticipated that Pearce will be hit with a $50,000 fine and be suspended for six matches.

As soon as she said no anything after that is assault, it is not that difficult, she did resist by saying no quite simple really, Thankfully for him she did not press charges otherwise the evidence is plain to see. You like many others including our club and those close too him are a big part of the reason he is a fark stick on the piss, you keep sugar coating and twisting the facts to suit your arguments and protect his rep, The bloke thinks he invincible and untouchable because of this. he will continue to do this until morons like yourself and other quit the slapping on the arse with a feather discipline and come down hard on him, No player is greater than the club, this numbskull and his legion of mind numbing fans think otherwise. Going to Thailand for Rehab, what a farken Gee Up

Maybe she found a sympathetic club official with a connection to a car dealer.

Maybe that's why he's the ex-CEO.
