Guilty of what exactly?

Having too much of a good time on the turps?

Not worth a poll BS.

Wow I thought it was obvious what the correct answer is.

Guess not. :confused:

You guys did watch the interview on the Footy Show right?

And now it would take mere minutes to end all innuendo and speculation on Fletcher by showing his medical certificate. Wonder why he's afraid to prove he was telling the truth :confused:

Then why has nothing been proved yet? :confused:

Im not masking the truth, I actually want the truth.

I dont know if I can handle the truth but I want it nonetheless...

I thought the way that interview was handled out was proof in not-so-discreet code.

Go read the recent article on the Richmond website about a certain new recruit we picked up and you will understand the type of 'sayings' I believe were used throughout the interview.

In our example: "not knowing anyone here has made it very hard to find any 'distractions'... I have had no 'distractions' so far and I'm focused on footy... I can't blame my mates but I had to get away and now I don't know anybody... I've grown up from my teenage habits now."

Sometimes they need to get a message out to the fans without saying it.

From what I heard on TFS the WCE knew exactly what happened and refused to say. They went on to say that he has changed, because of a life changing experience... meaning he is no longer on drugs.





Btw this is a rare case where he IS guilty until proven innocent (in the eyes of the public anyway).

Why?
He has papers that could prove his innocence.
He can release them to the public whenever he wants.
What does he do?
He refuses to show anyone.

Is that not obvious?

Also this is irrefutable evidence:

Mike Sheahan accused him of a drug overdose.
By law Mike can be sued for defamation unless he has cold hard evidence to proove he is telling the truth.
If this is a lie, Chad can and would have sued Mike.
But if he sued, he would have failed... can't sue for telling the truth.

Therefore: No law case = drug story is true.

Every case is different in the whole innocent til proven gulty crap. Most people have a preset idea on people and this quote wont change peoples mind.
And the fact the Flecth doesnt sue and interrupt his training is NOT irrefutable. Im not saying he did or he didnt, just saying that the last part was not evidence at all, purely speculation just as most media to do with this is. They may have a few 'badboy' issues but that is no reason to call someone guilty before any evidence has been given.

If he just had a massive bender then good on him. Dont get the opportunity much in the year. But from the people i know and yes they are quite credible, he was poppin a few. Believe me or not but cmon guys lets not be naive here. If any of youse have seen some of them out and about on a saturday night, then you might think twice.

At the end of the day. Fletch knows the truth. He knows if he did right or wrong and the onus is on him. If hes got nothing to hide, then fair enough, il take hes word. If he was having a better time then he should of (if ya catch my drift), then its hes mistake that hes gotta live with.

CBF looking through the website. Who's the Tiger recruit you're speaking of?

As to the topic, I couldn't care less if Fletcher got into it in Vegas. What he does in his off-time is his own business. Pretty warped logic to say the onus is on him to prove his 'innocence'.
