[Mr Angry]

Ego will join him soon.

 

[THE MESSIAH !!!]

I seen the story, but did you notice how long it took to get to the club he is playing for, if he played for us or had played for us, .

Lets take he was playing for us the story would have been KEY SHARKS PLAYER GOES TO JAIL, they wouldnt have cared who it was again the difference when its not a shark player

Without knowing his full history, that seems well over the top. 2 years imprisonment is the longest the local court can impose for a single offence, and to not give him 25% discount off that or to set a non-parole period is definitely an error.

Not giving him appeals bail is a bit of a dick move as well.

 

[sharknows]

Stomped on his head while lying motionless on the ground.....sounds a real top bloke.

 

[shaggs]

Obviously packer is a ufc fan reefy. Whaddya reckon???

Disagree he deserves every bit of it ,was a complete dog act.

Knocks someone unconscious then continues to hit him before stomping on his head.
Two years isn't enough, if you ask me.

 

[Surely]

Should have been 10

I think it is over the top for a non-premeditated / non king hit attack in comparison to other sentences.

Having said that, I'm certainly in favour of magistrates taking tougher stances on violence. Thing is the next bloke that does something similar will get a good behaviour bond .

Over the top? Surely your kidding there. The guy was unconscious on the ground and this germ punched him a few more times then stomped on his head just for good measure.

He was given the maximum his court could hand out. He is lucky the law only allowed 2 years maximum. The laws should be changed IMO.

 

[Griffoshark66]

Good riddance to this piece of shit.

 

[Coastal Shark]

If he appeals to the District Court he may get longer. I've seen that many times with certain Judges.

 

[blacktip-reefy]

first thing is , yes he appears your typical UFC type fan.
Second thing is he denies the stomping.
Third thing is it appears ole magistrate Grogan doesnt like league players. Look what he does to repeat offenders from his home town.

In regards to sentences we see year in, year out for similar things with similar & different results , yes it's excessive.

Not saying that's right that others get treated leniently but that's what generally happens.

He deserves everything he got he could of killed the fella when he stomped on his head. Also after he serves his time deport him back to New Zealand never to enter Australia again and make the kiwi government pay for his gaol time as well so he is not a burden on the aussie tax payer.

I agree with that. Well said.

Pffft... f**k you motherf**ker... :lol:

You guys wanna make an example out of the guy by locking him up... That's up to you...

But we ain't gonna be paying jack shit for the outcome of your kangaroo court.

 

[Madsharkie]

Still no money in enzud...?

 

[shiznit]

Still no money in enzud...?

Never enough money....

But being someone who actually works in the public service in NZ... And deals with ex pat Australians on an almost daily basis...

I can tell you the notion of us paying to reimburse your sentences is laughable...

Australians have far, far more rights here than Kiwis do in Australia.
