Homicide cautioned by the NBL

It's not strictly imports he goes after, he tries it on with a few people and the ones that bite he tends to stick with forever.

> I heard the bold headed dude they were talking to

Asking a player to "take it outside" doesn't sound like his style at all though so I would say that is total BS.
He always keeps it calm & clean, and most people at the game could verify that because he is often audible from across the other side of the stadium. He is harmless - just loud and relentless.

prob a fair enough question to ask anon

I do not have a signed contract with any organization that stipulates how I should behave in the media so therefore I can say what I feel like in the public domain unlike NBL players.
Where is the said soap box that you refer to? I clarified where my earlier statements were coming from and also said that I didn't see much else wrong with his posts apart from the swearing.
Can you find one supporter of the NBL that thinks that it is totally ok for a pro athlete to swear his head off in a public domain and that the NBL as an organization should condone it especially as it frequented and easily accessible by younger children? If by thinking that is not really awesome behavior for a professional athlete I'm climbing on my soap box, so be it....

The tweets I saw weren't full of swearing so my bad lol.
I was more referring to the NBL telling players that their own private social media accounts are deemed public domain and that the same rules apply as normal media ie t.v, radio, newspaper. Sure players should realize this and should behave as professional sportsmen regardless but if Cory could have refrained from swearing I could not really see much else wrong with his comments, sure they are just shit talking ect but at least he is passionate about his sport and the team he represents in it.

Fair enough, let players know what is and isn't acceptable and then move on.
