Mitchell Pearce and Origin

[redwhiteblue]

how can the nrl expect him to play for them after they ousted him for 8 rounds and fined him mega dollars for nothing illegal!

Well, this by Burgess is illegal so I wonder what his fine will be? How narcissistic can you get? And stop butchering Cold Chisel..that alone she be enough to get him deported:

Which talking head said that and where do they expect Pearce to be?

It was one of the ones on 2gb before the Contemptuous Call. He said the Tigpies for Brooks.

Because he's contractually obliged. If selected must play unless injured. I'm not sure whether you can be medically classified as too mentally fragile for origin but fine for club. But common sense should prevail and if he doesn't want to play for obvious reasons then surely Daley just won't pick him.

He has a letter from his Dr stating that SOO, and the pressure that comes with it could be detrimental to his rehab.
