[quote]The Cronulla Sharks have terminated the contract of Todd Carney after a photo emerged on social media of the star player performing a lewd act at a urinal.
The image went viral after it was published on Twitter on Saturday and the Sharks issued a statement on Sunday night saying they had sacked the five-eighth.
"The Cronulla Sharks Football Club has today, after careful consideration and lengthy deliberation, including discussions with senior NRL management, made a decision to terminate Todd Carney's NRL playing contract effective immediately," the statement from club chief executive Steve Noyce said.
"When Todd was first signed to the Sharks he was made well aware of his responsibilities both on and off the field, to himself, the club and to the game in general.
"However the photograph that appeared last night on social media does not meet the values and standards the club is looking to uphold and take into the future."
The statement said the club and the NRL were committed to working with Carney, his family and management in implementing appropriate counselling and support.[/quote]

By the standard of NRL player behaviour, very tame.
The blurred photo just isn't the same as the full deal. I am both disgusted and impressed.
wouldn't have been fired if he was bear grylls.

Finally. He's nothing but trouble and a total douchebag.
The majority seem to be in favour of the sacking

he was technically exposing himself in a public restroom where the cameras could see his junk more clearly

How does one take a piss [I]without [/I]exposing themselves? Very zen.

He bit the bottom of his tongue and needed to sterilise it.
pretty sure this was his third strike for drunk behaviour, and the action itself wasn't the reason he was given the boot
I think if he'd have been pissing back into his mouth instead of forward he'd not have been penalized.
fuckin' todd carney
He should have known his shenanigans could and did get him fired and banned from the NRL.

Australian fad, [URL="http://www.vice.com/en_uk/read/pissing-mouth-australia-skaters-troy-weston"]lol[/URL].
Normally, you'd see this sort of behavior after you take one too many blows to the head in the wrong places, but that said, it was a dumb thing to do, drunk or no, and he paid for it.

bear grylls is an idiot you know that?
les stroud is the true survivorman and he never recomends drinking urine in any situation
I think we should be asking who took the photo...
Actual unblurred image (NSFW duh)

I'm actually impressed by the strength of his stream that he's able to just point it up and shoot it where he wants on demand. He should be rehired and given a raise so that he might impart his wisdom and technique for future generations.
