Exactly Sam.

Whether they are charged or not, I think they should be punished for making such a stupid choice, and for dragging their club, and the game through the mud.

Do you think every NRL player that has sex with a girl should be punished? Or just ones that film it? Or just ones that do it in public toilets?

becaue it is not illegal to film yourself having sex.
Only if you distribute or if the person is underage.
Dave Q will know better as he has the southern hemisphheres bigget library of home porn.
Ask him


The Summary Offences Act 1988 (NSW & Federal)
it is an offence punishable by fine or imprisonment to photograph a person to provide sexual arousal or gratification if the person is undressed or engaged in a private act in circumstances where a reasonable person would reasonably expect to be afforded privacy, and he or she has not consented to being filmed.
A private act includes using the toilet, bathing and engaging in sexual activities not ordinarily done in "public".


She consented to oral sex - Fact.
She consented to simultanious sex with two of them - Fact.
She Did not consent to the filming - Fact.


whether she agreed to do the other things does not matter. She did not consent to the filming and under Australian law thats a no no.

geezus there is a lot of grey areas in that.
"A reasonable person would reasonably expect".
I think being on the spit in public toilets throws that section right out the window.

If they transmitted those images they would be in the shyte.

Another thing that would make any form of charges impossible if she is on the video saying, yeah, go ahead.

you want grey areas.. then how's this:

If she was screaming and moaning and giving it the old "yes! yes! harder!" but NOT looking at the camera/video recoder she can still say it was not consentual as she can claim she was not AWARE the camera was present - the boys get a nasty fine and a criminal conviction but most likely a suspended sentence..

If she is looking directly at the camera and says no - the boys will go to jail. it will be looked on as a "degree of rape".

So yeah.. whether she is saying how much she loves smoking cawk and the old spit roast in a closed cubicle.... if she mentions ONCE that she doesnt want to be filmed AND/OR does not look at the camera... its big trouble for those 3.


So for there sake - they better be hoping she looks directly down the barrel of the camera lens and loudly mumbles "THATS Goooooooooold!".

f*cken why???

The LA lakers used to hire houses & have massive Orgies every 2nd night until gold diggers realised they could cry wolf & make a dollar.
If that wasn't enough incentive to want to be a superstar then nothing is.
It doesn't mattter what they do or where they do it, gold diggers will bring them unstuck.
Do you expect them to sit at home & pray together or something?
FMD thats soft!!!!

On a postive for the Broncos, they were all home before 12 o'clock(yeah i know they que jumped, so what), because nothing good ever happens after 12.

Because Reefy, these guys are high profile football stars, and as high profile football stars there are things you can get away with, and there are things you can not. The 3 clowns should have known that gang banging a girl in a public dunny would come back to bite em on the arse. Especially if one of the stupid farks takes photos.
As many people have said, this $h!t no doubt goes on ALL the time, but you never hear about it cos the guys doing it are not f**king stupid.
The clubs know it happens, but they turn a blind eye cos as long as its not public it doesn't hurt the family orientated image they are trying to promote.
These 3 clowns go out and have some fun, great goodluck to them, but they f**k up and get their heads on TV, newspapers, etc.
They are f**king it up for the rest of us that do these things carefully so as to not attract attention.

Why are you bothering to argue DJ. You are right, you are 100% right. You cannot get anymore right IMO, but Reefy is entitled to his opinion. you have made your point DJ and good on you!

tell me how it would have been any different if they were doing it at karmichael hunts house instead of a toilet.
If you can't, then your are telling me that they cannot lead normal lives.
The issue is not stupidity.
The issue is gold diggers & young sportsman with lots of money
IMO there is not enough (if any at all) penalties for gold diggers when caught out.
Their motto is, have a crack. they have nothing to lose except their dignity, of which they already had little of.
She should be rotten tomatoed by all & sundry.

And the dignity of the players involved hasn't been tarnished?

I wouldn't consider engaging in that at all myself, think it's a disgraceful act in a public area.

If you want to do something like that, take it home.

Is there a link or proof to these accusations?

An ex-copper mate of mine told me on Sunday that from what he understood, he thought Bird was guilty as. Im not surprised. They think everyone is guilty even when they are found innocent!!

He obviously doesnt understand very much then.
