Eels in the media

Yeah so point four: Todd can do whatever the f**k he wants. Be interesting to see what happens if the court case gets adjourned until well into the season. All the NRL had to do is say that they respect the rule of law and the presumption of innocence. People would have shut up about de Belin soon enough. But now they've opened a can of worms cos Todd and Beattie wanted some brownie points.

Yep, the no fault thing plus the Toddies discretion clause is a ridiculous load of shit

But that's one of the main arguments against the NFSD policy in any case, and Reynolds has not been to court either. By waiting, are they suggesting that they may suspend him regardless of the outcome?

or Toddy doesn't want to say
"we have seen the footage. It is a storm in a teacup. I can't believe this has even got to this"

Feb 17
NRL have seen the security camera footage I imagine they are not wanting to prejudice the case

so he can expect the eyeballing on the 18th Feb

How are they going to make a ruling on whether he can play on the 17th of Feb? Sivo doesn't even have to attend court. What is going to change?

The case will be called again on the 17th February and Sivo has also been excused to attend it.
