LOL even Gary lasted longer in his first bones on bones meeting.

In an even competition, every club should win a comp in a roughly 16 year period. In the last 16 years only five clubs haven't won a premiership, and one of those was in this year's grand final, so it's fairly even.

Yeah, but we aren’t one of those clubs so it’s not fair.

Not my go, says Grub.

Lol at the use of “star”

Even “NRL player” is a bit of a stretch

 

[Twizzle]

In NSW we have mandatory reporting. So a phone call to the police in a heated moment might snowball into anything. These things adopt their own momentum and in some cases charges are laid even when the victim wishes otherwise.

I though mandatory reporting was only for child abuse / neglect? What other types of mandatory reporting are there?

Police can also issue temporary AVOs irrespective of the victim’s wishes.

Whenever hindy111 mentions Penruff?

Health staff have an obligation to report serious DV matters. This is from the DV Policy...


In saying that, a duty of care to report is likely to exist whether it’s a domestic situation or not.

Probably fair. I can see it helping the victim of DV avoid being blamed for the AVO.

The Tigers may finally have a reason to get rid of his ridiculously expensive contract now.

When’s the court date? Might get dragged out a while. And it’s a 5 year max sentence so doesn’t fall in the ‘no fault stand down rule’.

Yep. Also allows for a response when the victim may be too afraid to press charges.

Doesnt the no fault stand down policy allow Greenberg to enact it at his own discretion, in addition to 10 year max sentence condition?

There is good reason for this tough stance against merkin men.

Possibly. But then what is the point of the 10 year sentence ruling if it can be enforced whenever Todd wants? Just make it, "The no fault stand down rule can be enforced for any charge at the discretion of Todd Greenburg"

I wonder if SKD, Hazem El Mazri (if he was still playing) or Semi would have been stood down if this rule was in place?

I’m pretty sure Greenberg used his discretion to stand down Dylan Walker this year. On the surface the cases seem similar.
