Rubbish, if another person did this charges would have been laid irrespective to who is in the video.

Allegedly he filmed the act without consent and shared it with his mates, which then led it to being shared with the wider public. He is not unlucky as some posters here have said, he showed a huge disrespect towards the girls involved and will deserve his punishment.

Why would it be spread if it was just a nobody?

Because of the content, it is completely possible that a video of this nature could spread if content was interesting to enough people.

A law was brought in. I assume because there was plenty of this stuff going on. Yet how many actually get charged with it? Doesn't show on crime stats so can't be too many.

A quick search and I have been able to find a couple of articles relating to charges being laid against people. So your defence for that is that he is being victimised because of who is allegedly in the video. Mate you are a grub for standing up for someone who did this just because they play for your club.

Where am I standing up for him?

He was an idiot. But to think he is the only person to ever do it is just plain stupidity

Where did I say he was the only person to have done it? You keep on placing the blame for his charges on other people, saying it is only an issue due to the alleged identity of the girl involved in the video. That is a cop out mate. He deserves to be charged!

Napa's videos were taken 5 years ago or more. As far as has been said publicly, none of the women in them have come forward and said they weren't consensual. Further the laws regarding dissemination of them only came into force in August 2017. Hence the Napa videos don't fall under the "intimate images" provisions of the New South Wales Crimes Act 1900 as his dissemination of then occurred long before that.

Tyrone May's ones were allegedly recorded after the laws came into force. Further he allegedly disseminated them without the consent of the women in them, as suggested by them going to the police regarding the videos dissemination. If those accusations are accurate, then may is in breach of sections 91N to 91T of the Crimes Act 1900, in which case he could be fined upwards of $110,000 and imprisoned for up to 3 years.

His phone wasn't stolen. So I ask you how did the videos get out?

Maybe one of the other people that were present?

You couldn't see the face of the lady in Napa's video thus making it extremely difficult to identify her. Napa on the other hand was easily identifiable.

Can the same be said for the recent videos?

Everyone that does it deserves to be charged as should May in this case.

The difference is if it is a plumber or any normal person. It doesn't go viral and get out hand like this did.

That is probably it. i don't think they expected it too spread like it did either. This will be great education going forward

Here's what I don't get. Liam Coleman is charged with indecently assaulting a woman and the nrl don't lift a finger. Yet he finds himself in a sex tape and the panthers stand him down. If Greennerd is so serious about player behavior being charged, bringing the game into disrepute then why didn't they suspend Coleman like JDB Musgrove were Seems like punishment by amount of media outcry to me

Particularly as I understand it Coleman is a codefendant with Musgrove?

Not what I said. I said it is an issue because it was an NRL player with a profile. If it were not a person with a profile it may have found its way onto a porn site, but it would not have received the widespread exposure it did, leading the females involved to complain.

This is my point Frog. Do you TRULY believe it would not be an issue if it wasnt a NRL player? Do you seriously think it would not be an issue if some nuffie is knocking a girl off, whips out his camera, films her without her consent, sends it to five of his mates at his school/office/pub. You think the girl involved isnt hurt? You think the girl involved would care? Wouldnt be traumatised, embarrassed, violated? Just because it doesnt reach the newspapers or an internet forum?

Some things extend beyond the interest of our favourite sport or favourite team.

It could not hurt in terms of both trying to break this stupid bad boys club NRL and rugby league player have and also it is a way of the clubs saying hey look how progressive we are with women and try to mend the bad image the game has with women.
The women the clubs should employ is the players mothers.

Jesus Boon this off season has really affected you. you are making a fair bit of sense.
