A WESTS TIGERS rugby league player has told teammates he was intimately involved with a 26-year-old woman who has made allegations of a possible drugged rape to police.
It now appears that any possible criminal case, and the severity of it, hinges on the presence, or otherwise, of any date rape drug in a urine sample provided by the woman.
The Herald understands that no one apart from the one player at the party - held at the home of Ryan O'Hara in Five Dock early on Monday morning and attended by about 20 other players and non-players - was involved with the woman.
The player's version of events has eased initial concerns of league officials that the alleged possible sexual assault may have involved more than one player.
The player - who is not O'Hara - has told teammates that he had sex with the woman but that it was consensual. It is understood others at the party may not have witnessed the two together, with others in the room saying they were asleep at the time.
The woman, who had met the player at a Kings Cross nightclub, had partied with the Wests Tigers group of players and then travelled to O'Hara's apartment separately in a taxi.
A NSW police spokeswoman said inquiries were continuing.
As yet no players have been interviewed by police, who are awaiting forensic results from evidence taken from the unit and from the woman. None of the players has yet engaged a lawyer. The Wests Tigers chief executive, Steve Noyce, said the police had told him that they would contact him in a couple of days. He said the club was trying to maintain normality, with scheduled weight training continuing three times a week.
"We are keeping a business-as-usual approach, they will continue to train," Mr Noyce said.
The Daily Telegraph can also reveal that tests carried out on the woman have detected no date-rape drugs in her system.

the link doesn't work anymore but the article contained this very important bit of information
at which point most people would've thought "case closed"
I guess those people (myself included) were mistaken ...

Looks like you're a tad embarrassed so I'll let you off the hook.
It depends, but obviously not in this case.ngap said:Since a radio link wasn't good enough

Yes, the titans could ask him to stand aside but not much more.
Inferno said:Interesting last year how most on here were howling for Latu's head and he wasn't afforded the same presumption of innocence, nor even were the NRL willing to wait for the court hearing. What a load of hypocritical tripe.
The funny part is the quality of the blokes calling Searle a w*nker.Quidgybo said:Regardless of how he comes across, at every turn he has ensured the Titan's are a mile ahead of anything that has gone before them on the Gold Coast. If this franchise finally capitalises on the huge potential for sport in that region then it'll be largely down to him. Personally, I can put up with a complete wanker if it means that potential is delivered to RL instead of a rival code.
