Australian Rugby players party hard!!

[Rocky]

A star Australian rugby league player has quit after a photograph of him performing a sex act with a dog was distributed on the Internet.

Joel Monaghan played with the Canberra Raiders in Australia's National Rugby League, the highest level of professional rugby in the world -- a league as popular in parts of Australia as the NFL is in the United States.

Monaghan was attending an end-of-season house party with up to 30 Canberra players and friends when someone snapped a photo of the star player with a teammate's Labrador dog.

Rugby star Joel Monaghan has canceled his contract with the Canberra Raiders after a photograph circulated on the Internet showing him having a sexual encounter with a dog.
The image was later distributed on the micro-blogging service Twitter before making its way to the media. One week after the picture surfaced -- greeted by widespread shock and condemnation -- the 28-year-old player announced he had asked that his approximately $250,000 per year contract with Canberra be canceled.

"I accept total responsibility for what happened," Monaghan said. "It was a moment of madness, and while it was totally out of character, I have to cop the consequences. I'm disappointed that the photo was distributed, but I should never have put myself in that situation. It's something I will have to live with for the rest of my life..."

Well, that's really gross haha. Though I've been guilty of doing stupid stuff while under the influence, but ****ing an animal?!

Discuss the comparison of animal cruelty between Monaghan/Vick, the alcohol tolerance level between different ethnic groups, or feel free to share any stupid drunk stories that you may have!
