This carney stuff is disturbing me.Forget for the moment what punishment or what considerations or lattitude should be given to carney.Because Fu.... if I realy know.

Rightly or wrongly,I feel uneasy about the attention it is attracting

Not long ago,we had a thread about depression,mental health and what pressures are placed on people regarding expectations.We noted this with a warning of containing heavy content.

Much of these expectations real or perceived can have a real impact on individuals and those around them.

I am a real novice with social media and forums such as this but do read enough about how people feel harrassed or even bullied or discriminated against on social media or forums such our great site where we can share stories of the mighty manly warringah sea eagles.

However,I can't even imagine the feeling of despair,helplessnes of having an act like this exposed(when it was not meant to be)and joked about,ridiculled and commented on by millions of people.

I too,laughed at the jokes but now have a feeling of concern for the man.

I know it can't be supressed but ...,Imagine his mum,familly and the man himself.I just know what it is like to stuff up bigtime and just wonder how the fu-- did that happen

I reckon that there have been many people who have behaved or acted in a manner at times when they thought no one was looking that would be embarrising if it became public.

I even sugest that in the confines of dressing sheds and mad mondays before the digital world came to town that similar or equally embarrsing antics would have gone down hidden in the sanctions of teamship.Race days,Bucks and hens nights are notorious for poor social behaviour

Again,really divided in my own mind on sacking or not but do not think we have put enough work in understanding why did he feel that he had to skylark like that in front of a friend.I would bet that he was not the first and that the shot would have been shared by others who had done the same thing.snort the salt and lemon in the eye party trick.

ANY ONE HEARD OF SWORD FIGHTS LADS.USED TO HAPPEN REGULARY ON THE SGC HILL Just never captured on camera.

I hope that he finds the help he needs and can some how realise his talents and put them to good use.

I agree with you regarding him needing help.

He was interviewed by Weedler (on Nein) and he was quite unrepentant and lacking in insight, at that stage at least.

His attitude was it was no big deal, the negative attention didn't bother him much (he was a stronger person than that...). And he even said he didn't think he would be sacked if not for Steve Noyce's agenda against him.

The first step in getting the necessary help you need, is admitting there's a problem in the first place.

Agree mate, I am with ya on that
It,s just sometime people don't know what they don't know.

The 2 most common statement that is littered throughout any comebacks from any type of rehab is that" I didn't realise that I had a problem - Or - I know what the issue is and can deal with it-
I dunno know where this kids sits,but he is not strong enough or have the right support/environment to act out what is required.

They were saying on the Footy Show he does have good support, good people around him @Go manly

There was some concern about the friends he may associate with away from the footy club, but Beau Ryan and Eric Grothe Jr. both said he'd get the support and help he needs mate.

Which is good.

As others have quite rightly said, he didn't belt anyone or rob, rape or pillage, as it were. Just one too many breaches of a footy clubs standards.

Carney actually hasn't been suspended by the NRL. The NRL have said they would make a call on his future should any club lodge a contract for him and none have.

Mateo was very good tonight. If tooves gets him playing like that consistently and we all know that's been the issue for feleti he will be the but of the year

I like carney as a player, and would be a solid replacement for DCE...

But no thanks, he is too much of a handful.

You couldn't do it. Titans probably will. The bubbler would be in his element in Surfers.

Really, who is more naturally talented on the market ....hodgo with the metal knees and field goals. Maloney yes but some how roosters will find a way to get him.
We will go after Kane Evans, Docker and napa I would imagine, need one established half on market a big ****ing no to sezer he was rubbish today no no no do not touch him.
 

God

Bencher
In a heartbeat he's a dickhead but no doubting the kid can play and if he was to come onto the market given DCE has signed elsewhere he'd be the next best talent available.
