Here's the rub.
The article at the start if this little CJ stated that the report was from 2015\. It stated that players had mentioned the suicide of Mosese and their worry of more to come. It stated that WT are now 2nd in a ranking of player welfare. It mentioned that the club was contacted for comment but the club refused.
Where will the legal action come from? Who will be sued and on what grounds?
The response from the club was slow, predictable, and pissweak. Anyone who thinks it has been well handled is kidding themsleves.
Hate the DT all you like but you have to understand that they are in this business and don't print stories like this unless they are sure they are within the bounds of the law. Get upset at the moralistic tone, for sure, go nuts, but this entire attitude of suing is just farcical. The paper exists because the people running it are very smart.
The full report paints WT in a bad light. Most of all JT and MO. They would have been better served to provide an immediate response of " Yes, read that report, disagree, move on" . The response given gave the whole thing oxygen and let the DT run a follow up
Our club is an easy target for these articles because of how poorly we are run. Never forget that the journos writing these articles are across all of the clubs. Why do they come back to WT? Simple isn't it?
The report is available for anyone with the stamina to look for it. JT is heavily names. The DT article went light on him. He should be sending a 6 pack or better to Holt Street, not having his bosses posture anout ill targeted legal action. And Brydens? They would get their arses handed to them in a defo case. Even they know better.
