I think Canberra Raiders’ rugby league footballer Joel Monaghan took things a bit too far, and let one of his team mates dog get a bit too up close and personal.

A picture emerged late last week of Monaghan in a very compromising position with a labrador dog – to put it bluntly, it appeared the dog was giving him a blow job.

If you want the uncensored photograph, you can find it easily enough, here for example (WARNING – VERY MUCH NOT SAFE FOR WORK).

It seems that the lads in the local footy team were having some post season celebrations at one of their houses, and that Monaghan wasn’t really getting a blow job from the dog, but it was a prank, a simulated sex act.  Of course, all the boys were well tanked when this happened, and thought it was a great hoot, so much so that out came the mobile phones to take photos of the happy event.  Of course, there is a lesson we should never forget, which is that pissed idiots and cameras should never be allowed in the same place at the same time.  Normally I’d find it surprising that not one person there thought “hey this is not really a good idea” or “you know Joel, there are boundaries to what we should do”, or even “it would be really bad if this got out on the internet” – but we are talking of a bunch of football players here.

Well, you know what happened next, of course.  Surprise surprise it found its way to Twitter, then got mentioned by a radio station in Melbourne, then it was everywhere.

So now, Joel Monaghan, his team the Canberra Raiders, and the game he plays, rugby league, are laughing stocks around the world.  I bet you him nor the team mates who were all part of this prank probably don’t think it’s so funny right now.

To his credit, Monaghan did confess it was him in the photo that leaked – although the evidence against him really didn’t leave him much choice, but I’m sure many people in his situation would have tried to claim it was someone else who looked similar and denied it was them.  It was reported over the weekend that he would resign from the Raiders and go to play in England, to get away from the pressure, and humiliation that he would suffer every time he went out to play football – that plus it was very much a case of quitting before being fired by the club.

However, there seems to be an attempt by other players in his team to save him from being terminated, and to keep him.  Very forgiving lot these footballers.  These efforts undoubtedly might have been better expended in telling him to leave the dog alone at the party where it happened.  His fate is expected to be determined at a Canberra Raiders board meeting tomorrow.

Now, for those who have no desire to see the actual photo – and didn’t click on the link above to it – here is a simulation of what happened, a simulation of a simulated act as it were.

Apparently no dogs were hurt in the making of this video.  Actually I was talking to my daughter today (she trains dogs as part of her work) and she thought the dog wouldn’t have been hurt or distressed at all by having Monaghan’s penis in its mouth – in fact it most likely thought along the lines of “yum, I got peanut butter and this human is laughing and having fun so I’m happy, can we do it some more?” (the peanut butter reference is because it is believed that Monaghan coated his genitals with it to entice the dog to lick it off).

And what is it with these footballers who seem to want to find every opportunity to have their dicks out around each other – a bit of man love going on there?
