Channel Seven reported a group of men were stopped during a routine medical detector search when a 25-year-old male was found in a possession of a container with unidentified pills.
Norman was with a group of friends and it is believed he was not in possession of the capsules but is part of the police investigation.

People still believing everything they read?

After the past couple of months, I thought some would be a bit more switched on in the sense to maybe wait and see before casting judgement.

It's Parramatta related, of course there gonna make it out to be the ending of the world.

If it was someone with him, it's just another media blow up that all the fools believe.

So he is both guilt and not guilty in the media?

Sounds about right. I'll wait for the professionals (the police) to make their decision.

Yep, well, one could understand why Nigel would be particularly concerned with making sure the pronunciation of his surname was spot on :)

We've come a long way since the commentary of ten years ago, when callers used to laugh about being unable to pronounce any Islander names. Obviously there is still a way to go.

pretty much all that changed though is that it stopped being funny.

Rabs only knows about 1 in 4 names these days anyway.
