With so much publicity of
late about top footballers
involved with drugs, the discovery in a Darwin police raid
of an $8000 gold and diamond
ring made for the 2014 rugby
league premiership won by South Sydney-the Rabbitohs- is the subject of
immense interest and discussion
. Initially , only 20 of the rings were made for
the team, coach, chairman and CEO, handed out the day of the win . A further number were made for support staff and sponsors .
Only one has been reported missing by a
team member , Dylan Walker, lost on a
celebration cruise on Sydney Harbour. In the first match of this season ,Dylan Walker opened the scoring for the Rabbitohs in the 36 to
6 thrashing of the Brisbane Broncos at Lang Park .
Those charged over the raid are Anthony Orrell , 31, described as a member of
the Rebel’s bikie gang , who in a previous encounter with the law was chased and arrested after plunging
head first into a pile of manure , leading to the nickname, “The
Poogitive” ; bikini
model Asher De Rouffignac
, 26 . Both are on bail .There is
no clue how this ring came to be found in the raid on Orrell’s residence
which found steroids, metamphetamines, MDMA, cannibis and a drug pipe .
