Former NSW Origin and Australian player Craig Wing says its only natural that NRL stars begin mixing with undesirables.Wing, who played 256 games for South Sydney and the Sydney Roosters in his 12-year NRL career, believes that a footballers lifestyle naturally leads them to meeting the kinds of colourful figures who are alleged to have infiltrated NRL players lives this year.In a column for sports website The Roar, Wing explained that any NRL players schedule led to a cramped social life that gives the likes of characters spotted with Corey Norman, James Segeyaro, Junior Paulo and Jarryd Hayne this year better access to players than the general public.Go to the pub or club and people want to chew your ear off about the game or about footy, Wing wrote.The reason youre there in the first place is to get away from exactly that.Or, someone comes up to the team, asks if youd like a separate area, free drinks to get you started, and the ability to ask any girl youd like to hang out with you.When someone who owns or helps run a club offers you free drinks and a free private area, you are very thankful to that person for doing you a favour.Wing points out that while players are recommended to move into private areas by their clubs, it can also be fraught with danger.Drugs, criminal figures and nightclubs are all intrinsically linked, they always have been, Wing wrote.If you dont think that 70 per cent of people in that club knows someone that has some connection with the drug scene then you have your head in the sand.Chances are the person organising your area, with your free drinks and facilitating you talking to beautiful women, also has some connection to that.From there, Wing says they naturally become friends, and players cant be expected to do a background check on everyone they meet.These people offer players a sanctuary. They become associated with a good time. They become a mate.Theyre not hurting anyone, or doing any drugs.Thats how it starts.Meanwhile Wing said Andrew Fifita had a right to visit long-time friend and one-punch killer Kieran Loveridge in prison, but should not publicly support him via writing on his wristband.

The PCB has bought four bulletproof buses as part of its effort to provide the best possible arrangements in terms of security for players visiting the country. The board hopes the additional measure, first proposed during the chairmanship of Zaka Ashraf in 2012 and sanctioned last year, will help in convincing overseas players and teams to tour Pakistan.Barring Zimbabwes limited-overs tour in May 2015, Pakistan have not hosted an international game since the attacks on the touring Sri Lankan team in Lahore in March 2009. In that incident, gunmen shot at the team bus near Gaddafi Stadium, injuring five cricketers and killing six security personnel and two civilians.The PCB has since struggled to convince teams to tour the country and Pakistan have had to play their home matches at neutral venues, mostly in the UAE, which has been their base for the past several years.We have bought these four Coaster buses as part of our efforts to revive international cricket in the country, a PCB spokesman told ESPNcricinfo. There will be high expectations from teams willing to visit Pakistan and we want to ensure that we provide them with the best possible arrangements. Having these bulletproof vehicles would play a major part in convincing teams [about security arrrangements].ddddddddddddThe PCB relies heavily on the government for security arrangements for visiting teams and the bulletproof buses will be an additional safety measure for teams travelling within the city. The buses were initially sanctioned at a PCB governing board meeting in 2012, but with the change of leadership the purchase was delayed. The matter was taken up again by PCB executive committee head Najam Sethi last year.We are actually planning to host the PSL final in Lahore, but this requires us to convince overseas players to come, the PCB spokesman said. We have to have discussions with the players about their safety and security and I think this new addition in our security facilities will definitely give us an edge. Our ultimate goal is to revive international cricket, and we are doing our best to make sure we can.The PCB has suffered financially from having to arrange matches in the UAE and from missing out on bilateral series against India. This prompted PCB chairman Shaharyar Khan to suggest that the Pakistan board should receive a higher percentage of the income from matches against India at ICC events. ' ' '
