Pom pleads not guilty to assault.

[blacktip-reefy]

CRONULLA Sharks rugby league centre Ben Pomeroy has pleaded not guilty to assaulting a man at a rock concert.

Pomeroy, 23, was charged in May with the assault of the 24-year-old man at a concert of American heavy rockers Korn at the Sydney Entertainment Centre on April 20.

Police allege Pomeroy punched the man in the face while in the concert crowd, causing facial injuries.

Pomeroy was charged with assault occasioning bodily harm.

In Downing Centre Local Court today, Pomeroy's lawyer Les Nicholls made a plea of not guilty on the footballer's behalf.

Pomeroy did not attend the brief hearing.

Deputy registrar Paul Morgan adjourned the case to July 31 and excused Pomeroy from attending the next hearing.

Can someone explain the difference between this assault charge and that of Latu's? Besides the fact that one was a male and was a female...

latu pleaded guilty...

 

[DJShaksta]

Latu's was pretty clear cut, the guy lost the plot.

Poms is harder to dissect. They were in a mosh pit, jumping round like young blokes do, arms waving round, some guy cops one in the face, crys to police about it.

only time will tell i suppose

I feel sorry for footballers sometimes, i doubt 'that' person would've went to the police if it was any old person who 'did that'. Pom doesn't look like the type for mine.

 

[tye]

He is from Penriff though!!!

Dorito's.

Dorito's.

I thought he threw wood chips from that little garden next to the pavement at her. Or was it her throwing doritos at him?

The victim, Matthew Cooper, 24, told police he was punched in the face while in the crowd.

:lol:

Personally I think he has just got cracked in the most pit and knew who did it and is looking for his 5 minutes of fame.

Dunno PF. Just know Doritos were involved.

 

[Special K]

He threw both. I think he poured the Doritos all over her hahaha

bring back Latu.. gee he could put a shot on for a bloke how was 60kg in the shade

 

[Inferno]

Agreed.

I'm not so sure on Frenzy's call that Seu Seu could be better than him, but then again, he hasn't been done too many favours by Sticky.
