Rumour Steven May up to his old tricks

[NorthernBastard]

I'll say it.

If you kick and hit two blokes in the head so hard one of them starts fitting, the other has almost certainly permanent vision damage, and both spend long periods of time in hospital - the assailants are going to prison.

Given an eye-witness has already testified May threw the punch that started it - he is in serious bother.

That statement alone gets May jail time.

What's wrong with the bloke that he has to punch on all the time?

Dane Swan never got any jail time after him and his mates put someone in a coma.

AFL players have a different set of rules.

 

[Bont the Lord]

First time May has thrown one. He is usually headbutting the fists of teammates

From what I heard. The so called victim is a salesman and sold a product to a so called AFL player who wasn't happy with the product. The altercation occurred after they bumped into each other again.

Guess that makes it ok

Steven May has form in this area. Repeat offender.

Tom Lynch knows one of the victims but he wasn’t even there.
Don’t know why he’s been dragged into this.

You've just answered your own question.

Dion is such a nice young bloke, a bit of a surprise there.

May on the other hand, has been known to lack self control.

How old are these blokes anyway.

 

[Nergion]

No surprise. May was always a hothead.

Mitch Cleary on SEN this morning said both Melbourne and Richmond have denied the players were involved in a physical manner. But we’re involved verbally. I guess in the absence of video footage the police would need to rely on witness statements.

Well one of the alleged victims claims May punched a person in the face.

So May either goes to court defending an assault charge or the claimant goes to court defending himself for giving a false statement to police.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see neither party charged.

Agreed. Just one of those things that goes away on its own (perhaps with the help of a brown paper bag).

If May did what the alleged victim claimed then he should be held accountable. However if the alleged victim made a false claim, he should be charged. As well as the police interrogating him and all those involved in the fight. May has history, but we know nothing about the other party.

Sure, but I'm talking reality here. Lot's of time and effort, what's the probability of getting a conviction etc.

 

[The 747]

Should plead guilty in Japan.

Steven May is a famous AFL footballer, 2xAA Backman and premiership legend, a brave fighter who went toe-to-toe against Golden Glove Jake Melksham at a South Yarra Burger restaurant. If he didn't know who his clientele was, who he was trying to rob, that's kind of on him.

That's the reality in Japan. We're talking about Australia.

As a said earlier, I’d be surprised if it goes any further. 1.30am in the morning with some drunk youngsters goading some drunk AFL players. A fight ensued. One person was left well and truly injured. And the offended party well and truly knew they were afl players.

These are the only truths that both parties have been consistent on.

No one is going to court for giving a false statement in a he said/he said case. Police will rely on witness statements and medical reports etc. and of course any footage if it exists.

 

[Saucery]

If the AFL Integrity Unit (surely that's an oxymoron) haven't been called in yet, then the bodies are cold and in the ground. Play on!

 

[mouncey2franklin]

Let's all cast our judgements before we've heard both sides of the story or seen any CCTV footage

 

[ITCHY EYEBALLS]

One of the victims has had a full knee reco as a result of the incident
