Finger of Blame
Thursday, February 19, 2004
Controversial Australian rugby league player John Hopoate has been suspended for 12 weeks after being found guilty by the NRL Judiciary of poking his fingers up the backsides of three North Queensland players. Accused of one of the most bizarre charges in the history of rugby league, or sport in general for that matter, Hopoate, whom plays for Tigers West's was officially found guilty of 'unsportsmanlike interference'.
In the end the NRL Judiciary had little trouble differentiating between a "wedgie", a "finger up the arse" and the area between the "arse and the nuts" before finding Hopoate guilty.
Tigers coach Terry Lamb, who has played 349 first grade games, said it was reasonably common to be touched in the region of the testicles.
