Pokies drama[edit]

@Sully198787 : In response to your inclusion (below) in the Roberts' section for the 2022 NRL season, Phil Gould stated that the "drama was blown out of proportion". Correlation does not imply causation. Close perusal of the sources supplied do not seem to justify your interpretation and presentation, particularly the negative connotations of a) the pokies drama being in any way connected to team match performance, and b) the potential for club punishment after Wests' head coach Michael Maguire shrugged off the incident. Sampajanna (talk) 04:22, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Wests would go on to lose the match 26-4. In the aftermath, Laurie and Roberts were criticized for their actions, however both players were not punished as a result by the club.^[1]^[2]^[3]"
