Innocent until proven guilty is an important part of the justice system. What needs to be remembered is that a not guilty verdict, or charges being dropped, does not mean the person has been proven to be innocent.

My understanding from the reports I’ve read is a key witness lied. There probably should be repercussions for that, but I think it partly depends on the wishes of Bruhn and his mate.

However, it has not been proven that the woman made the accusations up. What we know is there was not enough evidence for a conviction therefore charges were dropped.
Yeah well I've been following the case because I subscribe to Geelong Advertiser and the female involved was found to have told absolute lies which both the Police and the defence lawyers shot numerous holes in and worse still she then forced her male friend to support the lies she had concocted. Why do you think the prosecution dropped the case like a hot potato.


Top criminal barrister Dermot Dann, KC, appearing in court on Tuesday for Bruhn, said his client had been “to hell and back”, declaring “this case represented a horrible stain on the criminal justice system”.

“It was a case where the evidence in the early stages of the committal revealed that when it came to these allegations of rape and sexual assault, the complainant had admitted that she had lied,” Mr Dann said.

“It was a case where another prosecution witness admitted in his evidence that he told lies to police and told lies in the court.

He shouldn't need to VicPol and the prosecution should come down heavily on the 2 lowlife cretins for their attempt to perverting the course of justice
While VicPol should be taking care of the criminal side (perverting the course of justice), he would also appear to have a very strong civil case against them given the impact that their lies have had on his life and career.

Because its based on Residential adress, he only plays for centrals due to his father stuart playing there.

He lives in the port area, if not for his father he would be playing for woodville west torrens.
That explains why it's Port and and not the Crows, but why is he NGA eligible anyway?

Why would NGA eligibility be a thing for a kid whose dad played AFL and has come through the SANFL juniors system?

Does being indigenous qualify you for NGA?

Yeah, and I think he only found out last year that there was a link back on his mothers side somewhere
 
It's Zemes Pilot in Port's NGA that looks even more exciting for me.

The AFL have changed the rules now so academy players aren't freebies any more, I'm not that fussed about it other than the Northern states who seem to get a pile of elite talent year after year, if a clubs like Port Melbourne Freo get a bit of good luck and get a great kid, then it's good for the game, especially now you have to pay fairly for them. Probably should limit it to one per club per year on the main list but multiple rookie options.
