The bloke has been in court more than once on charges relating to assault or violence towards women.
Let's give him a wide-berth and move on.
I cannot say whether or not the media reports are a watered down version of events... but speaking on the version of events portrayed in the media, if the woman felt violated, then action is obviously warranted.
Would you knock back a prime Greg Inglis? Greg Bird? Ferguson? Thurston left Bulldogs at an opportune time then was done for drunken nudity, Joey Johns wasnt eating Green Mitsubishi's in the Tele but was common knowledge, suppose you think Fitler was only loose after his playing days? Even lodge, we did the right thing cutting him loose, yet the Broncos reap the rewards... These are accounts that need little explaination.
People change, people grow... put clauses in his contract to protect ourselves, but give the bloke a chance at redemption.
For every Ben Barba, there is a Thurston... even devils advocate and say there is also another Todd Carney...
But I will be stuffed if chasing choir boys works, we could end up with 17 altar boys like Matterson.
Maybe George pell could be the coach.
Mother taught me that if I didn’t have something nice to say, not to say anything at all ?
