Non-eels footy stuff

At half time I thought it was going great, remember thinking this was our year then that was the end of that.

Same.
Hopefully we go a bit better this year with no pressure on us now.

Will be interesting to see now if the NRL punishes the victims of his alleged crime.

Holy crap, and I'm pretty sure this won't be the end of it either.

What does this mean? How would the NRL have any jurisdiction over them and why would they want to do that?

I think it's an allusion to Napa? Being that he allegedly wasn't the one to release his tape, which could easily make him the victim of a crime...

Yep, I'm sure that's what he was alluding to.

 

[Happy MEel]

I think the fact he has been charged suggests that at least initially he disseminated the video between mates without consent. This would suggest the NRL would punish him. I haven’t seen anything to suggest Big Papi disseminated the videos. He didn’t even take the videos as opposed to May who did.

Yeah which is the point.

In punishing Big Papi the NRL have, essentially, punished the victim. He seemingly didn't disseminate or even film the videos

 

[Bazal]

Also, I do feel sorry for Napa in a way, but in another way this Big Papi thing will never, ever get old. We should make so many signs...

 

[Happy MEel]

Ah I see. It won’t really matter though because he’ll be punished for the dissemination and I’d say whatever punishment gets handed down will be lumped together.

My point still stands though, May isn’t really the victim if he disseminated the video in the first place (even if he didn’t leak it to the same extent). Considering he allegedly filmed one of them and has subsequently been charged, I’d say there’s a pretty high likelihood he did.

Pointing out the irony of Napa being punished by the NRL after someone disseminated a lewwwd video of him. Perhaps the difference is that Napa wasn't videoed without consent. I don't know....there's too many sides of these stories to form a black and white opinion

 

[Soren Lorenson]

OK, here's a question I just thought of.. If the NRL fines a player, how do they collect the money. i assuem the clubs have a payroll system which pays wages into a nominated bank account etc like everyone else in the world. How does the NRL get it then? What if the player refuses to pay?

Greenberg said that some one has to pay for damage to the NRL brand so Napa was his bunny, he had no one else to punish in this case as Napa was the only NRL player involved that comes under Greenberg's jurisdiction

He has also said it may not be fair but some one has to pay.

Which brings to my mind, is he just being seen to be paying? Financially that is. NRL has to be seen to be doing something, but really what authority do they have to financially penalise someone? Or do they withhold grant money to the club then it's up to the club to pass this on. I'm starting to think that they are digging themselves a deeper hole but I do feel a bit sorry for them in a way because they are trying to stop stupidity.

anyone's guess mate, this is Greenberg we are talking about, worst administrator we have ever had

If May released tapes of other players without their consent then they are victims of a crime. I thought that was what he was charged with.

 

[Soren Lorenson]

Yes the police have inadvertently made the NRL look a bit silly now.

 

[Dibs]

I could be way off but I thought some former Penrith player has released them. May is charged with sharing them with this dude and maybe others but who the f*ck really knows
