Hey cunce


So disgraced Wallabies bruiser Rocky Elsom, once fuckin feared on the rugby field, now finds himself ducking and weaving in the courtroom, fighting off a five-year sentence for allegedly treating Narbonne Rugby Club’s bank account like his personal slush fund. But hold the prison wine—his legal team is scrambling to get that stretch reduced or wiped clean altogether.


The cunce from Sydney Morning Herald apparently reported that a French prosecutor, apparently feeling generous, has suggested slashing the sentence to a mere three years—because, hey, what’s a couple of fuckin million euros between friends cunce? The final judgment drops on March 14, meaning Elsom has about a month to keep dodging extradition like a back-rower sidestepping a tackle.


Convicted in absentia last October—because showing up to court is for peasants—Elsom was found guilty of allegedly siphoning corporate funds during his short-lived reign over Narbonne Rugby Club from 2015 to 2016. But his lawyer, the ever-determined Yann le Bras, is throwing the legal equivalent of a Hail Mary, claiming the case is riddled with inconsistencies and that the financial records were handled with all the precision of a drunken scrum.

Le Bras is now pushing to have the arrest warrant scrapped altogether, ranting about “procedural flaws” and accusing investigators of cherry-picking evidence—focusing only on the spending spree while conveniently ignoring any actual income or contractual obligations. Convenient, indeed.


Meanwhile, Elsom, presumably holed up somewhere far from the French authorities, is clutching onto what he calls “fresh fuckin evidence” that he insists will clear his name. Whether that’s an actual legal defense or just a desperate hope remains to be seen. But one thing’s for sure—he won’t be rushing back to France anytime soon unless it’s in handcuffs.

Australian wagyu is a decent alternative though….best if not served in prison.
