Rumours and Stuff

It has to be proven as fact that they committed DV to judge them for DV.
A conviction doesn't make the crime a fact. It is proven beyond reasonable doubt in the eyes of a bunch of flawed humans. Just like everyone who was ever wrongfully convicted. On the other hand, are there any facts that weren't determined in a courtroom? The standard for what is a fact is very different to the standard required to convict some merkin of a crime.

Roberts committed the DV and was convicted of it after his time at the Tigers. Prior to that him being a bad drunk, getting thrown out of clubs, getting in fights and throwing his career in the toilet
And where is your proof of any of this stuff? Did a jury find him guilty? Or is that only the standard when it comes to DV?

Watch your words son.

I dont ignore violence against women in any context and to suggest it makes you the POS. In fact I actually said I'd hand in my membership and stop supporting the Tigers if they signed a convicted wife basher. how is that "ignoring" violence against women? I'd say its taking a strong personal stand against violence against women. I note that you still support the club that signed a convicted domestic violence offender in Kirisome A'uva....are you ignoring violence against women?

Also, you and I have no idea what happened between Taylan May and his missus, only two people know and its not you or me, its May and his missus, the same missus who is still with him. You seem very certain that Taylan May was violent to his missus, as that what you are saying? On what basis? His stupid neck tat?

Explain to me how the Taylan May situation is different to the Semi Radradra case? is Semi a wife beater?
Dropped charges don't mean a crime didn't happen. The accusation is better evidence than whether or not there was a conviction. Plenty of DV victims either drop the charges after proving some power over the guy, or never go to the police in the first place. If you were a true champion of women you would know this ffs

So MON and Jim’s Mowing missed out on a shit player. Don’t get me wrong I’m happy that we avoided the shit but embarrassing again that they missed out on an absolute shite player. They are an embarrassment.
You can miss out on any player if another club was more desperate. They missed out on Morrin and Galvin but signed Lomax, JAC, Williams, Walker, Iongi and Kautoga. I think they're doing okay.
