Allegedly, Asafa-Solomona throwing punches in Bali.
I've seen the clip and it's hardly an allegation, could be out of the country for a while after that!

The clip is like something from a film, he's literally teeing off on people. Seems he can fight as well as play, some of those punches are incredibly powerful. Cameraman wouldn't win any awards, needs to get closer or a better phone.
I won't condemn him yet though. You need the context to make sense of this and there is none of that around to go with the video it seems.

Its him alright a nutter
It only shows a brief clip in isolation, and we don't know what happened to trigger Asafa-Solomona's participation in the brawl. The report talks about a teammate getting 'coward-punched' from behind.
If Asafa-Solomona has remonstrated with the other guy, who has then fronted-up or swung one, then Asafa-Solomona is IMO entitled to go for him.
To add: from what I can see, the 'integrity unit' lacks integrity and consistency itself, and some personal agendas have come into play.
If he gets his contract torn up.....would or should Saints be interested. Nice bit of mongrel.
Definitely. But he won't. He's got witnesses including the owner of the club saying he and his friends were attacked and that he was defending himself. He's only copped a 3 game ban I believe from the NRL and I've not seen any suggestion of criminal charges being brought against him.
The video is not very good but it looks liken he is laying into security personnel.
Also Sam Burgess has an Apprehended Violence Order taken out against him by his soon to be ex wife’s father, read the article does seem to be a lot of fuss about nothing, link to article below:

The NRL merry go round of off season issues continues.
