Past #26: Tarryn Thomas [Part III] - [C.Twomey] AFL rules TT is eligible to play in all competitions as of 14 October

[Hopper10]

Did Tigers ditch Dusty, Pies - DeGoey, Bumblers- Stringer, Dees - Clarry and the list goes on, but The low hanging fruit of NMFC needs to cut TT loose.Is that knobhead speaking Corns? King needed to call him out.

There’s plenty on here that have already cut him loose, before they’ve even heard what he has been accused of.

 

[FlyHigh18]

Kingy reflecting on the TT affair, doesn't reveal a great deal.

Two quick points. Cornes mentions the playing group have already moved on past him. I reckon this is true. I mean TT never appeared to be part of the larger social group who hang out together so it wouldn't have been hard.

Kingy says NMFC can't worry about if another club picks him up later on. Wrong sir. We most certainly can and should.

David King is a media BIATCH.

you can’t look in the rear view window when it comes to players, if he goes and matures somewhere else, good luck to him.

But also you don’t kick players out of the team without knowing wtf has happened.

Cornhole was banging on and on about Tarryn's history of indiscretions, i reckon it would stand up favourably against Jordan De Goey

, Dustin Martin etc etc, but don't let the truth get in the way of a good click bait comment, campaigner.

 

[Horizons_00]

Is this actual DV or a bunch of abusive texts?

It’s not like he hit four parked cars while driving, only to get picked up a few hours later blowing nearly three times the limit.

I'm not sure all the comparisons hold. Richmond invited Dustin Martin to find a new home (and he couldn't); Bulldogs got rid of Stringer; De Goey's list of indiscretions don't include women (the New York police charge involving a woman was dropped, and in the Bali incident, the woman involved stated publicly she didn't have a problem with de Goey's behaviour), and as far as I know (which isn't saying much), Oliver's problems are mental health and/or drug-related

I don't rate Kane Cornes' comments either, but on the flip side, we don't have to turn this situation into evidence that the world is against North Melbourne by pointing out other cases and saying 'what about them'.

Correct Desert Roo.
We actually don't know what this is about - AFL has corrected initial claim by Maguire Junior that it was DV, and AFL says it is investigating alleged inappropriate behaviour (perhaps text messages), perhaps sent 18 months ago when TT was investigated and copped a big whack from the club.

We don't know more than that, although potentially an ITK poster claimed 16-18 week suspension would be handed out earlier this week, so far this has not happened.

Wise and calm heads on our board say we should chill and wait because right now everything is speculation.

Of interest, I can't remember any, definitely not many, Pies fans demanding JDG be sacked for his offences - they wanted him to be retained and redeemed. AFL did not disclose potential JDG 18 week suspension. JDG is older than TT now. I love JDG's happy. calm face now. With time and support, the boy has matured.

I think that's worth remembering. Wishing all involved and affected privacy and care.

If he is being suspended for indiscretions from 18m ago, after he has already sat out for half a season, what was the point of going through a bunch of programmes?
at what point do you say enough is enough?
you can’t keep punishing for the same incidence or time period in their life.

I’m a firm believer in people can change, this absolutely flies in the face of it.

I doubt courts would go near it cause of double jeopardy. If the above is the case the afl needs to pull its head in.

double jeopardy is for the EXACT same crime, not for two different instances that are similar and happened at a similar time

 

[DesertRoo]

No one knows.
You’re assuming the same people involved.
If that’s the case this something that the cops have already looked into and said “nah there’s nothing we can change him with here”. Move along to the revenge pr0n stuff.
If it is the same people and the same time frame and the same stuff is being thrown up to punish him via a different route, it’s pretty ****ing low.

If this is a completely different matter recently, he is gone.

 

[travelli]

Is there even a whisper of a criminal investigation?

Tell me about Dustin Martin's history of indiscretions without mentioning the chopsticks incident.

 

[speedy]

Unless he is found guilty of a criminal act by the courts, I want the club to give him another chance. If the playing group can't deal with it, or if the club is scared of the media fall-out if he stuffs up again then what sort of pitiful club are we?

I want the redemption story to be with us... not someone else.

Iirc, something about a video groping a lap dancer wasn't too politically correct

When he jumps off the bridge , we’ll all put our arms around him. If it’s a new criminal charge, police/ courts deal with it…. Otherwise it was done to death last year and he’s undertaken councilling etc. Let’s just chill before he’s hung out to dry, he’s is 1 of us remember.

 

[shiraz]

I wonder if this weird delay is because the AFL want us to push him so they avoid legal jeopardy, and we want the AFL to do it, if it has to happen, so we aren't on the hook for the $.

 

[Grogg]

My suspicion is Tarryn is facing a breach of the AFL Respect and Responsibility Policy found here. The delay would most likely be related to the appeal process. Purely speculation on my part though.

 

[speedy]

The AFL’s first Respect and Responsibility Policy was launched in 2005 and had the objective of creating a safe and inclusive environment for women at all levels of Australian Football.

Reads like its a "workplace" policy??????

I'm still confused how private texts sent to someone outside of the industry can become a matter for the AFL? I'm just a silly old bugger I guess.

 

[Better Loosen Up]

Sooo, it's nearly 5 o'clock on Friday again....

 

[Engimal v3]

Yep, hard to believe Xander McGuire reported this on Jan 18th...

Tarryn has basically lost a month of preseason.
