Rumour Nicky 'Elvis' Winmar set to play Jailhouse Rock

[Black Panther]

 

[Cyclonus]

You blew it. "Neil Elvis "Nicky" Winmar heading for the jailhouse rock?"

Edit: Threat title updated.

 

[Black Panther]

Nicky's been busy, also set to appear in court on another matter on Thursday

 

[Waca Jr]

I wonder if he'll be late just like his appearance on the Thursday footy show

 

[Cyclops]

Great player, and has done a lot of good for footy.

Shame if hes a crim, wish he was our crim.

 

[Lindsay_Gilbee]

He’s been pretty much homeless since his wife gave him the arse.

 

[Black Panther]

Tried to choke his missus ... Victoria being Victoria bailed

 

[Altum Volantes]

Ooft.

Lucky he hasn't been basically canonised over the last 10 years or this could be a bit awkward.

Was working on a lot of the big rail jobs a few years ago. Would've been earning a pretty good wage doing that.

strategy of strangling his partner.
It's a shame cos he's done a lot for the game, particularly in Vic which was especially hostile territory for Indigenous players. Certainly deserves the time if does get convicted
What to do about the Optus stadium statue indeed.

But Ben Cousins is still a top bloke apparantly.

 

[TW Sherrin]

What is it with flogs like Crowley and Winmar beating women?

Put it somewhere it makes sense?

Victoria Park for example, where that incident happened.

Rather than on the other side of the country.

Did you miss the bit of bad press Benny got when he was in strife?

It was in all the papers.

Stalking women , yeah saw that.

Oh he got up to all sorts!

Don't think he ever throttled a woman but he was definitely knee deep in a river of shit for a while there.

He's had something of a character restoration over the last few years but don't worry, there are still people that like to make sure nobody forgets his past, so I think that will likely follow him for life - like it does with Carey, Ablett Snr and...well you get my point.

Cousins is a piece of shite and has been for many years.

I am pretty sure you got my point but not certain...

...but you definitely appear to have grasped the concept of people doing bad shit that reflects poorly on their character and permanently damages their reputation.

Hasn't seemed to sullied Cousins too much, he's very popular and welcomed everywhere still.

Is this is a thread about Cousins? Not sure why you’re focussing on him. This is about Winmar and allegations he’s physically abused someone. What’s your view on Nicky?

 

[RUNVS]

Well if true this basically means his famous photo about Aboriginal equality won't ever be able to be used again unfortunately. It was a good message but the moment will be forever tainted now.

It would be like finding out that Robert Irwin enjoys setting houses on fire for fun. Sort of taints his conservation message.

who has ever said this

 

[Rod Stroker]

What is it with flogs like Crowley and Winmar beating women?

I don't know. Can't relate. No one at my club has ever been accused of that.

It's terrible but if you read this thread people have referenced his finger pointing to his black skin, laughed and mocked the situation.

It’s disappointing, but I reckon that moment stands alone. If he’s guilty, it doesn’t change what was going on and what he did to stand up against it.
