todays smh confirms it was Pearce http://www.smh.com.au/news/league/claims-penrith-star-gower-manhandled-test-greats-daughter/2005/12/21/1135032086409.html


:lol: Mitchell Pearce is only what 15 or 16? The daughter was the oldest child so he couldn't be any older than that - the kids got guts, gowers not a big man but he'd have to have a bit on pearce jnr (junior jnr? ;-) )

A shade older. The picture that appeared in the paper with his father after he signed with the Roosters had him just a shade smaller and of a similar build of his dad....

yeah I checked on the roosters site - he's 16, I had thought he would have been closer to 15

Junior wasn't a huge man either but if he's a similar size he'd have to be one of the bigger halfbacks running around in his age group

I'd say he might follow his old man into the backrow or out to five eight by the looks of him.

Gower is a f**king moron, a short, ugly, halfbred moronic dinosaur with all the intelligence of rock moss!!

Regardless of where or when it happened, the mere fact that it happened at all proves Gower is a stupid, brainless grub that should have his NRL contract ripped up. "I was on my buck's night" is no excuse either.

When will these farkwits learn????

Chook.

Thats just plain silly in saying that. I dont even think that Wayne Pearce and his family were part of the celebrity tournament i dont think Junior played as part of the tournament.
If these allegations are proven to be true its a joke, he was there with his family on holiday having a nice time and yeah whats happened.
I never ever liked Gower in fact hated the bloke before any of this happened. And i am a true leaguie to the bone and i hate seeing the game i love dragged through the dirt once again and i wish whats alleged isnt true BUT if it is he really deserves to be treated the same way Dane Tisle was

I wonder if it was a drunken slap on the arse she walked past which is bad but sort of thing you expect when a guy is really pissed, not accept but can see how it happens.

Or if he actually had a real grope and was genuienly harrassing her.

If it was the latter then he should have his contract torn up.

Drunken slap on the arse is minor, its very different to an alledged "groping"

Im sure if youre only talking about legitimate things, it would be fine to publicly post them.

But if you dont wanna do it public.....PM me your observations plz....it may be handy to know the legal difference between a slap and a grope.

If this were true then Gower's an idiot. Dont these blokes learn, Im sure he wouldve learned from 1999.

And why do this before he marries his lovely Amanda Flynn. Poor Amanda.

Lucky Gowie wasnt in Okinawa....:lol:

Japan has quite a groping problem it seems.


Japan 'groper' dies after fleeing

_41144438_womenonlycarriage203.jpg
Some trains have women-only carriages because of the problem

A Japanese man has died after being tackled by fellow train passengers who believed he had molested a woman during the morning rush hour.
The man fled the train at a station in the city of Osaka after a 20-year-old student accused him of groping her.

The 40-year-old was brought to the ground by four male passengers, who included at least one off-duty police officer. He died later in hospital.

Women-only carriages run on some trains in Japan because of groping complaints.

The college student accused the man of groping her on Tuesday, shortly after the train they were travelling in stopped at JR Tennoji Station in Osaka, Mainichi newspaper reported.

He ran away but was chased by four other passengers, who tackled him on the platform. "We are looking into the cause of death and details about how he was overpowered by the passengers," a police spokesman told the French news agency AFP.

Despite the introduction of penalties and women-only carriages, Tokyo police reported more than 2,000 groping incidents on the city's trains last year.

Well a slap on the bum doesnt really count as a grope, I think the main difference is the "feeling up part" and this is just in general nothing to do with the allegations
