tell you what i bet the tea pot n the tellietubbie at Bradford are breathing a sigh of relief.

this could ultimately blow our season apart if so i for one will find it hard to back them up , although brough does seem to have accepted it.

1st - Every word doesn't need a capital letter, it's hard to read what you are trying to say.

2nd - Sculthorpe's diabetes and him drinking, as mentioned before, is irrelevant if he controls it properly.

Basically what im trying to say is..
They do it, they pay for it.
We pay the money to go watch them,
Not for them to be banned because they have broken the rules.
And also,, scullys diabetics and him drinking is relevant,
When he's a role model to young diabetics wanting to play rugby!

I bet you Sir Alex Ferguson would not agree with you on this or 90% of the overseas football stars

The Brits may well it as always being a big problem with our so called professional sports men in the UK

As for RL the days of Tuesday and Thursday night training and then down the pub are long gone Its a professional sport played be full time pros on good money sacrifices must be made if they are to perform to the required level
If I was the coach of Wakefield there would be a total ban on booze during the season simple as that

JK by KO in the 3rd

£10 on it

Agree completely proper annoying.

But if he's controlling it, there is no problem.

As a diabetic and one who openly struggles fitness wise because of his diabetes you would have thought he'd be more careful than most.

You obviously havent seen Scully's dad. Make it £20 if you like

My dad's bigger than your dad...

...and in this case he most certainly is!

Same coach for Celtic game I assume?

It does all seem a bit of "naughty boys at the back of the bus". JK was right to do what he did. DB was right to standup and say sorry. Move on. Will be a shame if Scully makes a big deal of it, although it's cut a couple of grand from the wage bill.

I do wonder if it will be the last we will see of him in the Super League, which would be an untidy way to end a top flight career. I hope he reflects on that, rather than the cost to his pocket.

Not sure but I think his name is Doug, could be wrong. Bigger than the pair of them and if he sat on JK we would need a new coach

Of course but Brough will be driving this time.

What woriies me is that he returns next week ticks over to the end of the season and copies the antics of Mr Griffin. Although in all fairness to scully he may prefer to act like a pint pot as opposed to a teapot.

ordinary reply, the reason for poll was a reply to someone who suggests because scully played well last two games he is exempt from disciplining.

In all fairness, I'd hope as a professional sportsman who has dieticians and a training programme tailored for him, I'd imagine he'd be able to stay 'fitter' than us normal people. The way it's being made out on here is like he's sat necking two bags of Tate & Lyle a day - I imagine he knows his body better than we all do.

The most shocking part of this story for me is that Scully is on £1,600 a week! Assuming that's gross, that equates to around a £100k salary

yeah me too, otherwise its a total none story blown out of all proportion, perhaps because of the size of the fine.

must admit prior to finding out i thought it had to be a lot worse than it is.

surely a suspended fine for a first offence would have been better??
im of course presuming this is the fisrt offence.

He may well know his body better than we do but how much notice does he take of his dieticians? Hopefully with more attention than he pays to the club rules!

With Scully spitting the dummy out and going to the press I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't play again for the club. If this is the case then we need to get him shipped out asap. Can't imagine the likes of Wilkes, Fergy, Pitts and maybe even JD would be happy at hearing Scullys wages. People have slated NGB4C (granted Scullys played well this season) but it may be he is right on this one.

lets see what happens after the weeks ban, I have fallen out with my employers through the years but it hasn't stopped me working to my best ability, at the end of the day scully has got to sell him self if he wants to move on

How would you feel though if you were someone like Ollie Wilkes who runs his blood to water week in week out? Can't imagine he'll be very happy on hearing Scullys wages

Agreed, if I went to work and started having a pint I would be more than likely sacked.

Rules are rules and if you don't stick to them then you should expect to be called into the managers office.
