Is it just me or is it odd to hear Scott say: ''Majak assures me, and did a long time ago, that his conduct has been completely above board, and I take him at his word.''?
So when Majak tells Scott he wasn't out at a nightclub and has proven to have lied Scott takes him at his word on other matters?

Totally agree JB.
Funnily KB was in the same corner, thought Nth had handled it appallingly and felt sorry for the publicity Majak had received.

According to Arocca, Egyptians are liars and shouldn't be trusted:
CEO Eugene Arocca this morning defended the 20-year-old, who was suspended yesterday for lying to the club, describing him as a "great young man" who had fled war-torn Sudan and spent three years in Egypt as a young boy. That experience had shaped his world view, Mr Arocca said.
"This is a chap who was in Egypt for three years with his family as a 12-year-old. I think lying might have been a part of the way they had to survive. I think you've got to take that into account," Mr Arocca told radio station 3AW.

On one hand I am surprised that this is getting so much attention but on the other Norf absolutely milked the publicity at the time of his drafting and since for that matter.

They have created a rod for their own backs. When the play-Majak hype first started he was still in the ressies at Werribee and looked like staying there. He now looks a capable VFL player who might deserve an AFL game - but with McIntosh back from injury to partner Goldstein he is no chance. And promoting off the rookie list won't happen with mature age rookies Gibson, Mangan, Urqhart and Lynch fighting for sports.
I'm not convinced we have been told the full story here. Seems rather excessive to suspend a rookie listed player indefinitely for lying.

He'd apparently missed a few rehab sessions. The lie might well be the only time he got caught out for going out.

Likely the case in most circumstances. Including those of our own players with current troubles.
