Kent sticking up for the Raiders again cause of his good mate Ricky Stuart, while Buzz sticks up for the player who gave him the interview. Both have to be the most biased journalists ever, no semblance of impartiality in them.

[@sonah9126]

Spot on mate - I hear the argument that Curtis Scotts age was a part to play, but then I see players like Papenhuyzen who are both the same age.. It's a shame, but there's no room for off-field issues when you have an obligation to perform on the field, that means actually being there, not being suspended because of an off-field incident. Bad for business with the salary cap wasted and bad for your team because it slashes your chances of winning.

[@newman653]

But there ain't no fixing stupid.

[@jacksonloram7887]

@@sonah9126 Bit late but yep, Curtis was 24-years-old when all this happened. He's an adult, can't keep using his age as an excuse. If you keep having off-field incidents then the club has every right to sack you.

[@henrywaller9546]

It's a tough room. Kent doesn't let anyone finish. He loves turning discussions into debates. Crawley at least listens and acknowledges the opposing points then adds his own. Kenty just starts yelling halfway through once he gets bored. He does it so often on Fox; it must be the producers asking for heat.

[@StanslaMichael]

He didn't ignore the law, he said he got off on a technicality, the cops fucked up the arrest, it wasn't because he was found not guilty. Even he admits hitting him. If they hadn't fucked up the arrest he would have been found guilty and charged.

Mental health is an excuse nowadays. I've personally witnessed dozens of Supervisors n Union Delegates advising employees who are about to be sacked to "say they have Depression/Anxiety", it's common as hell. I bet his agent told him to say it. I've even had managers suggest to me, to tell workers this tactic.

Sorry but it's hard to swallow the mental health issue.

[@ozziecoops]

Canberra Raiders cover up stuff like every other team, then when they want you out they use any means necessary. If only these players would come out with the truth on how these clubs cover up things that players should be dealt with ASAP. Clubs bring most of this upon themselves by babysitting top players. Carney i think would be able to tell you a hell of a lot.

[@sonah9126]

Logic dictates Curtis Scott has to go, regardless of how he feels about the situation or the mental health issues, no one man is bigger than a club, period. And this is professional sport, it's all about the premierships, not the how many can you help through mental health issues. Kenty raised a great point yesterday, Curtis was getting paid more than the Prime Minister and with that salary comes expectations from the club, it's not free money.

[@RugbyLeagueHistory]

Exactly.

[@plc2866]

Gee Melbourne we’re smart to let him go.

[@Gooooner24]

Ofcourse that's exactly what it is, but isnt that what they should be doing? You've got a guy who you're paying big bucks to who has been a headache off the field and under performed off the field. It's in the best interest of the club to let him go, and a clubs management should act in their best interest.

[@jackohere1878]

The 360 show is descending fast into a fiasco of what it once was . Ridiculous claims eg "whether a player is found guilty in the courts or not doesn't matter" or "everyone has mental health issues these days".Obvious bias by Kent towards to mates at Raiders is stomach churning to watch. Yvonne is just a figure head she has no worthy imput or control of her panelists. At least when Iken was there there was a person with League IQ and some push back but now it is basically a comedy chit chat show of little value. Fact is Raiders have handled a few situations like this badly over the last couple of years.If they treated their star half Wighton the same he would no longer be there.

[@graeme02]

NRL 360 is nothing but drama. This show has very little to do with rugby league. The original Footie Show had the right idea, nothing but ex players that are capable of discussing aspects of the game.... Not these dribblers.

Kent and his Tigers mate Hooper are absolute malignant blights on any NRL program - I know there are better Rugby League journalists around....maybe they don't get a start on these kinds of shows because they won't stoop to this level of dross. Sometimes I think they watch too much Skip Bayless or Stephen A...but Kent and Co. could only wish they were as entertaining and objective as those guys. It's a shame we're so starved for content that we keep watching their drivel.

From an avid NRL fan living in the UK, I love you get so much prime time space for these type of shows. But seriously these three are horrendous.
