Ignore the fact it's a 7 article...
My attachment stated the woman was found not guilty of assault due to insufficient evidence.
My point being why is SPP not afforded the same justice?
Because trial by media doesn't require any evidence at all.

Should have named Sam in the SANFL, he hasn't had any competitive football for two weeks. Stuff the AFL, they can only put pressure on us to keep him out, we should force their hand and get them to show themselves as the bullies they are. We know they're going to sit on their a**es and force him to miss the North game so that'll mean at least three weeks.

Its akin to when a cop (singular) pull you over for (allegedly) being on your phone. They will also ask you "Do you know what you have done wrong?" Most people say "yes officer - i was on my phone." If you say no its your word against theirs. They are seeking a similar admission of guilt from SPP from something he doesn't believe he has done.

Oh and dont be on your phone when driving.

NUFC, YES.
Who says they found him guilty of anything. They are seeking an admission.
Thanks to Seven's sensationalist bullshit putting everyone on the back foot, I'd say they expected to find a smoking gun (either in terms of footage and/or multiple credible corroborated witness statements), but haven't, so are relying on SPP/Port to fold.

The outcome of the player and his club actually standing up for themselves never actually crossed the league's mind.

Rucci saying on 5AA now that this looks like going to the courts ..
Sorry to post in your area but I have been keen to follow this one. Seems here is one place to find some info.

Seems like Port have had it and are going for CH 7 at the moment.

Oddly enough CH7 twitter feed seems to have been....... cleansed.

Yep., seven have been abusing us with their sensationalist stories for years. Hope they get their comeuppance.. shame it’s still up in the air for SPP.. worry about his mental health
