Dogs are known for marking their territory by peeing on the ground, but should a rugby player do the same? New Zealand Warrior prop forward Russell Parker was playing the Brisbane Broncos at Suncorp Stadium on Monday when he urinated in the first half. Parker did not sneak to the sidelines like San Diego Chargers kicker Nick Novak, he relieved himself right on the field in his shorts. I imagine that players we less inclined to tackle Parker giving him an unfair and stinky advantage. The National Rugby League fined Packer’s Warriors $15,000 for his very public pee. Now Queensland Police are conducting an investigation into the incident. The offense of public urination carries a standard fine of $200.
Packer gave a piss poor apology on Twitter:
I guess when you gotta go, you gotta go.
