I doubt that very much.

Why? Will she for example go for a job interview and they go sorry your the 1 that was assaulted/Accused Teo of assaulting you so we can't hire you.

Teo on the other hand..

Does the girl the accused Brett Stewart get asked about it? Compare that to him always getting it brought up. Same with Bird

Don't get me wrong if he's guilty he should go but it should of been handled privately until charges or the court case occured

She would of hit him first and she got hit back.

If that the case she deserved it, if you wanna hit a man expect to get hit back.

I don’t wish to go into any further detail about this matter because I regard the incident as unfortunate and something I wish to leave behind me.

Unfortunate? A woman has a black eye, what 'unfortunate' circumstances could have lead to that I wonder?

...and it's always the best way to mop things up from sport stars 'something I wish to leave behind me' and 'move on'

So Te'o reported the incident to police?

Could explain why she hasn't filed a report and went straight to Nine to give 'her side of the story'.

Bloody hell, man.

What do you believe he will be charged with, if at all?

It will be heard by a magistrate or a local court judge - it will not be a jury trial.


That's a fair point. I was mostly thinking in general terms though.

It's still prejudice for the NRL or club to involve itself in criminal matters.

They don't know how far it's going to go , so they should leave it to the experts.

That is not good enough. He's 100kg. She's about half that. Unless you're in direct immediate danger you do not need to hit a woman, even if she hits you first.

What if she had a weapon?

A punch for a punch is not on but there are some circumstances where he may have had to defend himself physically.
