Just shit from Dusty, blacked out and can't remember, can't imagine how awful he made someone feel and he must just absolutely be guttered having all the unwanted attention on him that he so does not want. Wtf man, just shattered our best player goes and does this. Smells a bit in terms of how this is panning out. And finally KB Richmond could have handled it better? Yeah maybe, but what are you doing ffs?

Sorry to say but it almost sounds like you want him to be charged by the fuzz.
If she genuinely feared for her safety, and this according to the age the afl/RFC were unresolved on, it should be reported to the cops

Ultimately it's her call, but if rfc believe that occurred I would hope they encourage her to speak to the cops and discuss relevant charges being laid.

No, she felt Richmond were not taking it seriously enough
Maybe Richmond were going to deal with this in-house and place some sanctions on Martin's behaviour without going public about this. Most clubs would keep this quiet, and deal with it internally. I am sure Richmond wouldnt' let Martin off the hook that easy.

What's he going to get, a good behavior bond for a first offence and a stern talking too.

As mentioned, it sounds like our initial media statements falsely created the view we were minimising this (by calling it a hiccup for instance)

That's crap. That thinking stopped years ago when people said it wasn't rape if you didn't report it immediately
The courts would still look at it differently, judge will question her as to why she never phoned 000 at the time of the threat, and why she never at all reported it to the police, instead, she went to the media, before going down the appropriate channels for a matter such as this to be dealt with.

If you truly feared for your life, you would call the police immediately.
