Yeah, I know. I've read that. It's not a full transcript. I dont understand why anyone would want to read it though to be honest.

Looking forward to Caroline Wilson's strident defence of Bruhn. "How dare she?" has a decent ring to it.

one would hope he'd be given some dispensation to respond with a family reference.
‘Am I going to get in trouble?’: How rape claim against Tanner Bruhn fell apart after witness admission
‘Will I get in trouble?’ How rape claim over AFL star fell apart after key admission

Bruhn will still be targeted by nuffy opposition supporters, unless the AFL get on the front foot and make sure they all know the BS he has been subjected too.
Even then the nuffies will still most likely have a dip, but some AFL support wouldn’t hurt come game time.

That’s where Axe needs to come in harder then.
1 for 1? 1 'mum joke' per sledge? What happens when we play Tasmania???one would hope he'd be given some dispensation to respond with a family reference.
Mums and sisters and aunties. All in the same person!Tassie players don't have mums?
Do you expect Tanner to cover it, ypo, because those responsible for the allegation won’t have the capacity to foot the cost? It’s not an ex gratia payment as I understand it. It is coming out of the police budget allocation, as it should, since it was the police who launched the legal proceedings, even though there were reports that the police officer taking the formal statement from the person making the allegations found inconsistencies in it.
The treatment of Tanner has been abominable. By the AFL. By the police in prosecuting a case that, by all accounts, was not strong. By the dregs in social media who smeared him.
Hopefully, those who appear to have committed perjury will face repercussions.
Welcome back, Tanner.

reckon a week is good enough to let it play out and then lock it up.
Its been withdrawn - and TB and club look very good IMO for the diligence, patience and approach thru this.
But yeah close it up after some time as its done with and we can all move on.
If people want to discuss the social issues after that week, the SRP board will cover those topics.

This is beyond Wilson's remit as a sports journo, it belongs with the crime reporters. It's a lot bigger than sport.
Personally, I trust the Herald-Sun's editors about as far as I could throw them.

I don't think this thread has been all that bad. We've all had a say about an awful situation. The conversation will die on its own accord as we move on to other stuff. No one was hurt. Sometimes, mods just need to chill.
The 11pm curfew stand
All this could have been avoided if the disgusting gynocentric misandrist mindset that plagues modern society of ‘believing all women’ was challenged and no longer adhered to.
Some harp on that it is absolutely vital that all women should be believed as if innocent men accused of these assaults are unimportant inconsequential collateral of that stance.
Well I say one innocent person suffering reputational damage out of 1 million is too much, particularly when some end up committing suicide.
Women are just as flawed as men and not above committing immoral, unethical, criminal conduct .As that attitude prevails it is not surprising that there will be women who would inevitably take advantage of it, especially as there appears to be no repercussions for said criminal behaviour.
There’s a middle ground between ‘not believing women’ and immediately treating any man that is accused as ‘guilty until proven innocent’.
Any of these sorts of allegations of a sexual nature should be off limits to the media (regardless whether they’re a high profile person or not) and heavy fines, in the millions if necessary, awarded to the accused to discourage the tabloid scum from ‘accidentally’ publishing the names of those involved.
These measures may never completely discourage low-live women from lying about these incidents for their own vindictive agendas ( some women take pleasure in how a false accusation can still linger on long after the case has been thrown out of court and cause damage to the reputation of a man anyway, and that’s often enough to sate their lust for revenge) but will significantly reduce it and that’s a good thing.

False accusations do happen and the consequences can be devastating.
But sexual assault is overwhelmingly under-reported and under-prosecuted, and far more women experience assault than men are falsely accused.
There's no need to swing to an extreme, we can support victims and defend presumption of innocence at the same time.
