NZCS took out an advertisement in New Zealand's The Dominion newspaper
with a color close-up of Hopoate apparently sticking his finger in
North Queensland captain Paul Bowman's anus. According to the
Australian Associated Press (AAP), the accompanying text reads, "A
bloke's chances of developing prostate cancer increases as he gets
older. If you have symptoms that you're concerned about, consult your
local doctor. It won't hurt a bit -- promise."

Advertising in this country would be so much more fun if we had the
guts to do such things. The act was done in public, so use it in an ad
for a good cause. It was probably even broadcast, so it's no secret.

If I were the "invader" I'd let it drop. Imagine the press coverage a
lawsuit like that would bring. I'd send the Comedy Central news team
to cover it. Or is it more properly "uncover" it?

Salespeople and advertisers would learn a whole new meaning of the
term "insertion order."

According to AFP, Hopoate, a 27-year-old teetotalling Mormon father of
five, had faced the NRL's disciplinary commission seven times in the
past four years, primarily for fighting.

I want to be there when he explains it to the kids. Maybe he needs to
start drinking - moderately.

I find it very interesting that this has been crossposted to
rec.radio.digital.
