Quokka Shocker

Stoopid rugger types...it's Quokka Soccer.

story

Given their skills, I'm not surprised that they dropped a few of the little fellas.

Good reminder that behaving like tools on the end-of-season bender isn't absolutely copyright to the AFL....

Dubber beat up ...Where are the injured quokkas?

Ahh...the Benny defence.

Dubbers beating up a negative rugby story? Something fundamentally wrong with that concept....

...except they dont like the Force ...too much money ...not enough tradition

too many bennies?

The Quokkas were asking for it.

These quokkas look they're 'asking for it'....

So cute!

Wait until one bites you.

Can't be worse than a bad tempered cockateel........

Cockatiel.

Unless you're talking about taccy again . . .

That would be cocko'steel . . . FFS!

Fava and Brown fined for quokka shocker


November 30, 2007 - 12:57PM

Western Force players Scott Fava and Richard Brown have been found guilty of mistreating quokkas and fined $11,000 and $5,000 respectively.
The RugbyWA misconduct committee found the pair had breached the Force's serious misconduct protocol in regards to their behaviour towards quokkas at Rottnest Island last Friday.
In a statement from RugbyWA, it said: "The Committee found that both players had been drunk in public, behaved anti-socially and inappropriately handled quokkas.
"The Committee found that neither intended to cause any harm to the quokkas."
Former Wallaby Fava was additionally ordered to undertake seven days community service and counselling for alcohol abuse with Brown also made to undertake seven days of community service.
Fava last played for the Wallabies in the 2006 Tri Nations series.
Sydney resident Dan Andrews told the Herald on Tuesday that Force players were involved in disturbing incidents, enacting a series of outstretched, diving tries holding a milk crate, with the touchdown gleefully noted whenever the player caught a hapless quokka in the crate.
"Sometimes the quokka's tail wasn't captured within the milk crate, and then when the player was sick of that he started hurling the milk crate," Andrews said. "It was horrible to see them pick on little animals. Some of them were just babies and they only weigh three to five kilograms."
He said another player picked up a quokka by the tail, rotating it several times above his head and then releasing it, hammer-throw style across the grass.
"We told them to stop handling the quokkas. We told them how it was an offence under state law but they ignored us," he said.
"At one point, we were pleading with them that the quokkas were revered almost like a state animal, certainly a Perth icon, and as a team from Perth, they should respect that. They didn't listen and it just got to the point that we went inside so as not to give them an audience, and we just hoped that they stopped."

...another player picked up a quokka by the tail, rotating it several times above his head and then releasing it, hammer-throw style across the grass.

Could be an Olympic sport in that.

Did everyone see Benny on ACA?
