Monaghan ready for jibes
18 January 2011, 8:29 am

                         FORMER Australia international Joel Monaghan will brace himself for a barrage of abuse when he makes his first appearance for Warrington in Sunday's pre-season friendly at Leigh.                          

The 28-year-old three-quarter was forced to quit his hometown  NRL club Canberra Raiders after eight years as a result of a  drunken incident at an end-of-season party.

Monaghan, who played for the Kangaroos in the 2008 World Cup  final, went into hiding during November after the publication on  the internet of a lewd photograph and admitted he thought it could  have cost him his career.

Addressing the British media for the first time at Warrington's  pre-season media day, Monaghan said: "It was the worst time of my  life.

"I didn't turn the internet on or read a paper for about two  months. It was a pretty dark time. The hardest thing was seeing the  family dragged down as well.

Yeah 'jibes' might be a bit of an understatement. Poor fool. Don't try this at home kids!

If there ever was a way to guarantee getting fired from your job in disgrace then this must be it. Really is just makes you smack your head and ask 'why?!?'  :017:
