However, let's not kid ourselves that the NRL arent also involved in such poor behaviour. In fact McGuire's joke was of very poor taste, and other offenses listed were equally as poor, but pale in comparison to the acts listed below https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfr ... ont-fix-it
- 2017 - Parramatta's Kenny Edwards has been suspended for the first seven games of the NRL season after pleading guilty to domestic violence-related assault charges earlier this week.- In 2009, South Sydney captain Greg Inglis was charged with assaulting his now-wife Sally Robinson, but escaped conviction in 2010
- Fellow Rabbitoh Kirisome Auva’a pleaded guilty to a drunken assault of an ex-girlfriend only last year – but will return in round 23, having had his “indefinite” suspension downgraded.
- The Sharks’ Ben Barba allegedly struck his partner, Ainslie Currie, so hard that bloodied photographs of her appeared in the Daily Telegraph in 2013. He’s now enjoying a prominent career with Cronulla.
- 2016 - A FORMER NRL player believed to be named in an application for a domestic violence order did not appear in the Brisbane Magistrates Court when the matter was heard yesterday. The retired player, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was not required to appear in person if he had reached an agreement with his wife, who it is understood made the application.
