    Kurtley Beale Stood Down

    Wallabies playmaker Kurtley Beale has been stood down from Wallabies selections after fresh allegations emerged about inappropriate and offensive text messages he distributed in June this year.
    The messages allegedly reference an ARU staff member, and the new investigation follows Beale’s clash with Wallabies Team Manager Di Patston last week.
    Beale was dropped from the Wallabies bench following the altercation with the ARU staffer on the plane from South Africa, after he was allegedly told to change his shirt.
    The new allegations relate to messages and images allegedly distributed by Beale in June of 2014, which the ARU consider to be “highly inappropriate and deeply offensive” referencing an ARU staff member.
    Surprise Surprise - there's actually even more to the issue.
    Full release from the ARU here:
    The additional matter was raised for the first time with ARU management earlier this week, during a separate investigation into an in-flight incident between Beale and three members of the Wallaby management team on Sunday 28 September 2014.

    As a result of these new allegations, he will not be considered for selection for the Qantas Wallabies until the Code of Conduct Tribunal reaches a conclusion.
    Australian Rugby Union CEO Bill Pulver said it is appropriate for the allegations to be assessed independently due to their serious nature.
    “This matter relates to Kurtley Beale allegedly distributing what we consider highly inappropriate and deeply offensive text messages and images to a number of people in June, referencing an ARU staff member,” Mr Pulver said.
    “We became aware of this incident this week and believe an independent Tribunal is the appropriate forum for these allegations to be considered. This also provides Kurtley with an opportunity to present his response to the matter through an impartial process.
    “The investigation into the argument on the plane has become a secondary matter in recent days, with our focus diverted to these new allegations. We will finalise the investigation into the in-flight argument in due course.”
    The Code of Conduct Tribunal will be chaired by District Court Judge Mark Williams and will include representatives nominated by the Australian Rugby Union and the Rugby Union Players’ Association.
    The date for the Code of Conduct Tribunal hearing will be set in coming days, but it is expected to proceed early next week.

    So who shopped him for something done in June? One of his mates that wanted him to stay on in Argentina?
    The Wallabies are in disarray!

    Wests Scarborough 1st Grade juggernaut has played finals rugby each and every year since its inception and continues this remarkable feat yet again this season and unbelievably it's still rolling on and as an added little circle jerk for the masses Wests actually hold the record for the current longest unbroken finals record.

    I wonder if Kurtley and Di Patston had a fling a while back, and the ensuing investigation into the aeroplane incident led to the discovery of the dirty pictures of their tryst being the "root" of the problem.

    "How can you show those pictures to Quade?! I thought it was special"

    "Yee, but you go a hot arse..." etc etc...

    The article on SMH says the message was inadvertently sent to the employee involved!

    If you're going to do that type of thing, at least look at who you're sending it to!
