Scandal Tigers duo in nightclub brawl

[theyellowsash]

Why the fu** are they not pressing charges if their story is true and they got punched for no reason? Either they’re lying or ******* idiots for letting a thug walk free

so you dont understand the real world of policing and the court system then

 

[theyellowsash]

Lol
She was not being sexually assaulted or hit.
FFS.
Stop spinning BS.

take your backwards views elsewhere. being unwantedly touched is sexual assault. sure its not rape, but its still assault.

na, explain it to me, if it was at a nightclub then it’s all on camera, it’s an open shut case if they’re telling the truth, plus shitloads of witness. Now this thug is gonna walk around thinking he can punch people and be above the law

 

[Sterge]

Given everyone is guessing and wildly speculating......maybe the thug they are protecting is another AFL player present...maybe its 'Big Sav'.
Jeez its easy to make things up.
What a waste of time, and before anyone pot/kettle/black....I'm on my lunch break and bored

Rioli's girlfriend is related to Narkle, doesn't want to press charges to protect his friend.

Why else didn't the Cats blokes step in they were either the aggressors or they are big softies.

Mystery deepens by the hour

 

[frggr]

Especially because they spoke to the players "at length" about the issue. Surely any footy club with any semblance of professionalism would want to know *how* an injury to their (current) best player/asset happened.

Maybe Bolton just Yadda Yadda Yadda'd it?

Bolton: "We were out celebrating my partner's birthday, Dan's partner had some inappropriate remarks made about her, yadda yadda yadda, I've got a broken wrist"

Ben Gale: "Hrm, sounds reasonable"

 

[frggr]

You need to work on your reading skills my friend,

she was being sexually assaulted and he got hit

Why Richmond aren’t punishing Bolton and Rioli

Once upon a time at Tigerland, the fact of Shai Bolton being a gun player coming off contract would probably have been grounds for cynicism about a non-penalty. Richmond aren’t that kind of club any longer.

Inappropriate touch isn't always sexual assault. The reports I saw said he put his hand on her waist.

Inappropriate? Sure. Sexual assault? Unlikely.

Why so obsessed with it?

Saw it mentioned earlier in the thread, but here's the list of indiscretions as listed on Footy Classified the other night. Doesn't include Chopstickgate or the pepper spray incident (is it missing others?)

These are the ones that the media catch on to. You can bet your wage that with 44 well paid young men between the ages of 18-35 at every club, there's a lot happening on weekends that isn't identified.

Some people just go out looking for trouble, and I imagine seeing a footy player ups the ante even more.

Years ago I was at a pub in Collingwood for a friend's going overseas leaving do.

I walked past the pool table and some bloke slapped me on the back of the head. So, I turned around and said, "what do you think you're doing?!"

He replied with the classic, "ya wanna take it outside?" I just said, "no just don't hit me on the back of the head."

Two hours later I went to go for a piss, and woke up in a pool of blood with a fractured jaw, and a broken nose. Had a boot print on my face for two weeks. Lucky I didn't get killed.

Cops couldn't do a thing. They said he deserves what's coming but they had no way to find him.

My only consolation was that he might have woken up the next day thinking he killed someone.

So, yeah. Idiots are EVERYWHERE

Yet more evidence that being passive doesn't solve everything. So sorry to hear mate, that sounds so awful, and you didn't even escalate anything - yet you still got violently assaulted. Hope he gets/has already got what's coming to him

 

[_RT_]

Now, now, Richmond players are all angels as shown by the countless incidents where they just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time

Until one of our players is responsible for a young womans death from an overdose, I'd ease up on the s**t slinging about wrong place wrong time.

Really depends on the person being assaulted doesn't ti

Lol nightclub brawl.

Why would it include chopsticks which was proven false or Liam Baker being illegally pepper sprayed by some lunatic?

what a beat up though also last I checked Brooke Cotchin isn't a Richmond player

He's already addressed this one, doesn't count because Gaz had retired

In a discussion about club culture, something that happens 5 years after a player retires doesn't really enter into it.

That it was 20 years ago doesn't help either.

Nice deflection. We're having a discussion about club culture here, sweetheart. It's a long bow to try and connect Ablett's actions 5 years after he retired with the club

I guess 25 year old Geelong premiership player Matthew Stokes being arrested and charged with possession and trafficking cocaine and under a plea deal plead guilty to the possession charge doesn't count either as he didn't have a conviction recorded against him.

Maybe Jesse Stringer counts who was arrested for alleged assault of a woman.

Geelong players Smedts and Caddy breaking into the wrong house when playing a prank on a teammate

Steve Motlop being done for drink driving

Joel Selwood losing his licence for speeding

Feel sorry for those poor Geelong players always finding themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time.

If you want indiscretions whilst still playing

Jack Steven had a run in with a knife
Stokes was trafficking cocaine
and maybe the reason none of the Geelong players stepped up on the weekend is Jesse Stringer who missed games for 'unacceptable behaviour towards women'

It's not just Gaz killing a lady so lets gets down off our high horses.

******* listing defending your GF as a nightclub brawl what a laugh

Weird that Martin would apologise to the woman if it was false

Richmond star Dustin Martin apologises after threatening woman with chopstick

Richmond's Dustin Martin threatened to stab a fellow restaurant patron with a chopstick after she told the drunken Tiger to stop acting offensively at a Chapel St eatery on Saturday night.

And yeah, I'd expect the wife of a club's captain to be a bit smarter a and for the captain in question to impress upon his partner how important it was they didn't * up the bubble and potentially * up the entire league.

But I suppose that was too much for Captain Hairspray

We've already spoken about how Geelong dealt with those issues. Publicly and strongly.

Why would they include incidents that were cleared of any wrong doing?

LOL @ Footy classified including a WAG on their list.

 

[frggr]

Do we know how Bolton broke his wrist yet or have they not bothered asking yet?

Just how badly are you still hurting from last years grand final?

LOL @ FC including a club leader's wife who almost had the whole season shut down because she thought she was above the rules

Which of your listed issues did Richmond not handle publicly & strongly?

I mean Jack Steven got stabbed and no one was ever the wiser as to why and the club quietly let it go away

I think you've confused this forum with bay13 pal.

2017 incident wasn't a scandal...it was awesome, almost made the pain of losing go away...almost
