Blake Ferguson involved in incident at Sydney nightclub

Police are investigating an incident at a Sydney nightclub involving NSW State of Origin winger Blake Ferguson.

No arrests have been made but police said they were investigating an incident involving the footballer at a Cronulla club about 10.30pm on Sunday.

"Police have seized CCTV footage from the location and are continuing with further inquiries," Miranda police duty officer Inspector Mick Merrett said.

Ferguson attended NSW Origin camp on Monday where a Blues media conference has been delayed since 10am. The Blues are yet to comment.

I am so mad.

[manbearpig]

Let me guess, calls from the other 15 clubs to sack fego only for one of them to pick him up! This is truely f***ing incredible

It will be on ABC 24 soon I hope. It wasn't on nine news in Victoria, instead they were running a story on the Demons sacking their coach. Don't these people have their priorities in order!!!!

I think he saw your avatar and tried to emulate it!

[Canberra Milk]

Ftr, I love living in Cronulla, but nobody should EVER go out there on a Sunday night, unless they love hanging out with drunk bogan testosterone-fueled idiots

[Raiders Lim!]

He hasn't been the same since Sandor signed with the French...
come to think of it can we keep the Dor?

[Wiggy]

Honestly, I'm sick of sacking quality players only for them to play for the enemy weeks later. The club ends up being the victim, and the players go onto huge contracts with other clubs.

Obviously its hard to say exactly what the club should do without knowing the details of the incident, but I'd be looking at all the "non-sackings" punishments I could before tearing up his contract

[Baywatch]

Uhh. Doesnt sound promising but have to wait and see if anything real actually comes of it

[Postman Pat]

Totally agree, I love living in the area. But steer clear of Cronulla most night TBH

[Rodman]

Unless he's done something that will see him go to prison, we would have to be crazy to sack him.

The NRL has shown over and over again that sacking a star player only hurts the club that does the sacking. I'm sick of taking the moral high ground.

[VictorTheViking]

Our backline is suddenly looking very thin if they let him go (this is if its proven to be true)

[Canberra Milk]

I can also tell you, unsurprisingly, that Cronulla people still despise Fergie with a passion. I have no doubt he was instigated by some idiot/s with a chip on their shoulder

But why he would go there, I have no idea

I'm with Rod, unless he's done something absolutely indefensibly horrible, we need to hold on to him!

Despite the allegations I agree, it bit us on the backside somewhat with dugan (although robbo is going well there) but we have no ready made replacement this time, and the nrl has shown it is gutless to back the club that takes a stand against intolerable behaviour.

I don't really think anyone wants to see Ferguson's contract ripped up or anything like that, but he is a massive idiot who is clearly incapable of staying out of trouble. I have absolutely no faith in his ability to grow up at all. If we are going to continue to keep him on the roster, we may as well get used to this.

[Northern Raider]

Report says he was involved. We cant' jump to too many conclusions as he may have done nothing wrong.

[legend]

The club will have to deal with the NRL Integrity Unit as well and they are sure to hand down a hefty suspension and fine if he is found guilty.

[icgreen]

Geez, talk about going off early... does anyone actually know if he has done anything wrong at this stage?

I am used to it.

TBH, I don't really care. I was more offended by Cruisergate because it was directed at the club and the fans, rather than simply being an act of idiocy. Fergo's inability to be a role model is the least of my concerns.

[yeh raiders]

Need to have AVO's put out on each other... I'm sick of this pair of clowns dragging rugby league through dirt and letting everyone down. Even if the allegations turn out to be untrue, why are these idiots even going out to nightclubs in Cronulla, knowing they will be targets. Especially Fergo given what he did to the Sharks

It is well and truly that last place Fergo should be, anywhere but Cronulla really. The hatred runs deeper then anything we have for Dugs or ever had for Carney.
