Matthew Johns sex scandal in 2002

[El Diablo]

Reported by Weidler on 9. He will talk about it tonight on The Footy Show.

Happened in NZ in 2002 whilst at Cronulla. 4 Corners will be interviewing the woman.

FFS -

2002. YAWN.

A far greater issue in RL is ensuring my supply of blue vein cheese and bikkies is adequate for the floggings by the mighty Roos and mightier COUNTRY tomorrow night. I couldn't care less where a former Cronulla pivot but his dick in 2002.

It was 7 years ago, he was cleared by police, time to move on for mine.

i'd say it's only came up because 4 Corners will be interviewing the woman

I'd like to know how 4 Corners and this story have come together seven years later. Who seeks out who in these situations? And on the Eve of the test match? Coincidence?

No doubt Vlad or O'Neill brought it up

Surely they could get a story that's more recent though.

hardly

the media dig something up before these things. Origin and Finals are other times they release old stories

Scratching the bottom of the barrell.

wouldn't surprise me if it's part of the AFL's deal to rubbish other codes and bury any AFL scandal

 

[God-King Dean]

Must have been very trumatic for her...

 

[stuke]

get him off TV please!

 

[herbert henry1908]

Mike Carlton's wife is a producer on 4 corners

 

[Syko]

stop watching the show and stop buying the gossip papers/mags and most important stop talking about rubbish like this, it will all eventually die.

 

[Beavers Headgear]

Is a nothing incident

It happened in my hometown, was a wee bit of media interest about some allegations but absolutely nothing came of them

 

[Timmah]

:? You live in NZ?

 

[squiddy]

Has she just found out Matty is a TV star ??

 

[Brutus]

While Four Corners are at it they should re-visit their investigation into what those AFL players were doing out the front of an Adelaide nightclub a few years back.

Or why Adelaide police decided not to fully investigate it.

really? a star?

:lol:

Apparently the 4 corners are doing a series about footy players in general behaving badly, unfortunately for Johns they've dragged this one out of the closet amongst others.

How's 9's form? They make it the lead story on the 6pm news, then in shameless cross promotion they say Johns will talk about it on the footy show.
Gutter journalism at it's lowest. You just expect it from if Weidler's got anything to do with.
