[Tommax25]

Code in crisis.

I can't wait for the "I'm an alcoholic" "I suffer Bi polarity" angle. Can't wait.

You need a brain to claim bi polar.

 

[Ronnie Dobbs]

Why couldn't someone just have sex with a big name player and then say pay us 50k or I will claim rape and you will have your registration suspended

just as a hypothetical

If it were that easy, I'd quit my job and graft a pair of tits on to my back.

 

[Ronnie Dobbs]

So what or are you saying he should be thrown onto the street.

Look I feel sorry for the alleged victim, but this young bloke undoubtedly needs help.

No.

He needs to grow up.

 

[kmav23]

Slapping someone for saying something is not an appropriate response you maniac

Do you think parents should be allowed to hit their kids?

 

[Tommax25]

Trust the DT to headline it as a "sex attack"

I noticed that, and I noticed the speech marks and I checked the article for who used the words sex attack and I couldn't find them anywhere else, including the headline. The only place the phrase sex attack was used was just in the link to get people to click on it. I shouldn't be surprised.

 

[Frailty]

Do you think parents should be allowed to hit their kids?

Strawman...

 

[Pete Cash]

I think hitting a child over words is probably inappropriate. A smack when they do something like reach for a hot stove or run out into the street is fine.

 

[SharkShocked]

And you are why society is now so weak.

 

[hrundi99]

And you are why society is now so weak.

Shh...your own emotional weakness is showing.

Does it make you feel good to hit your kids? You know, when you lose patience and can't control yourself?

Would you accept someone else hitting your kids?

She then speaks to her boyfriend before returning to Ferguson, pushing him hard in the back so that hecollides with Dugan.

I want this merkin charged with assault.

He can't be allowed to get away with this. This is f**king outrageous.

God help him if I find who this man is. He will pay dearly.

 

[Pete Cash]

I believe it was the young lady in question who pushed fergo.

 

[Tommax25]

If just Hayne didn't back up for Parra.

If he was underdone he shouldn't have, bu if he felt fine then why wouldn't he?

 

[chrisD]

Has Ferguson actually admitted doing anything? It'd be a pretty epic turn if this was a Stewart style beat up.

If he was underdone he shouldn't have, bu if he felt fine then why wouldn't he?

Just wistful fantasising of what could have been.

It is admirable that you are so passionate about due process. The thing you are failing to consider is, none of us know if Ferguson had conditions placed on him by the NRL or the raiders after his rooftop cruiser drinking androtropry. For all we know the NRL have every right to suspend just for walking into a licensed establishment.

Several jobs have conditions and terms placed upon your ongoing employment, if you breach those terms or conditions your employer has every right to suspend your employment.

When i was in the Army if one of my diggers turned up for work drunk I put him in Jail.

Don't get so worked up defending this fool as you me and everyone else on here have no idea what restrictions the NRL placed on his ongoing employment.

We would have heard about such conditions being imposed.

 

[Tommax25]

Hah!

So you're saying you think it's considered assault for a female to slap a bloke?

I didn't say it was reasonable or appropriate.

I just don't consider it ASSAULT.

Can't simply touching a police officer be considered assualt or something like that? Or is that just America/made up in my head? If so then a slap isn't a far reach either.

 

[hitman82]

Legally a slap is assault. But you're going to look like a total homo if you go to the police and complain about it.

 

[carcharias]

Bourbon Bec could slap me and I would look as homo as possible while I reported it.

[SharkShocked]

"It's understood the charge will allege that Ferguson inappropriately touched the groin region of a female."

If that's true... would you not expect your wife, sister, mother... to slap the be-Jesus out of the person?

I'd have no issue with mine doing it. Would you?

And if i was as much of a genius to get drunk and do that... I'd be looking for a corner to hide in from the personal embarrassment.

I hope that he hasn't done that and that there is some sort of mis-understanding...
