Channel 9 reported that witnesses have come forward and said that the guy who died wasn't just pepper sprayed but was also tasered twice while hand-cuffed.

I heard he had an allergic reaction to the pepper spray and went into anaphylactic shock....


....So even in victory the dragons still found a way to choke

That's poor form. Give yourself a triple. That could be a brother or friend of yours.

Condolences to his loved ones.

Dude, I understand losing a grand final is tough, but having a dig at someone who's died as a result of celebrations is f**king low. Take a good long look at yourself.
