Rumours and Stuff

Innocent until proven guilty. But Dylan has a court case on Wednesday which will go some way toward determining what has gone down and what is likely to happen from here.

Golden Sheaf hey... was a known meat market in the 1990s, and doesn't sound like things have changed much.

Bye weekends... NRL players, just shouldn't go out on the town/piss! And if they do go out then just don't get handsy in case the feeling isn't consensual.

The club may simply see fit to not name him this week so he can focus on (and recover from) that, regardless of the NRL's stance and threshhold on mandatory stand downs etc.

Been to that pub a few times, full of wannabes, first thought was maybe someone said , do you know who that is - bit of instant fame if you complain.

Having said that, Dylan is well known as being hopeless around girls especially after a drink or two.

It definitely does. The 'sexual touching' offence includes groping someone on the arse or the tit. Whether a crime has been committed hinges on whether the toucher thought there was consent. So stroking a random's bum as she walks past would probably mean no expectation of consent, but what if you'd been eye f**king each other for the preceding 20 minutes? I've done it in the past, assumed consent and it turned out I was right. Other times I was wrong. You don't always know if flirting is 'just flirting' or not, and shouting at chicks in noisy pubs can kill the mood.

Him: "ARE YOU FOLLOWING ME AROUND?"

Her (smiling and inaudible): ".........................."

Him: "WHAT?"

Sometimes it's just easier putting a hand on her bum. Get rid of the time wasters. But then if she doesn't like it she's unlikely to call the cops on you unless you're a f**ken jerk. In this case it was five counts of sexual touching. Whether it's five different women or five times on the same one, it's somewhat jerklike. But Drown has his technique and he has no doubt pleased a lot of women. Sometimes you get to smash some moistie in the toilet and other times you face criminal charges. You just never know your luck.


What I assume would of happened is he was chatting her up and touched her on the thighs a few times which perhaps she was ok with. Few drinks later the conversation wasn't so smooth and does again. He wants to launch the rocket. Maybe he asked her to come home and she says NO so he does again and says c'mon don't be a prune. She gets annoyed with his attitude and goes and dobs on him as didn't like being called a prune or whatever abuse he most likely he may of used in a joking manner. I highly doubt the guy just randomly started groping her 5 times.

Once she had shits and her ego kicked in fuled by alcohol she tells security guard he touched me 5 x. Security guard prob thinks I am a chance of getting my dick wet and wants to be the hero so calls cops. Situation snow balls.

There is always two sides to a story. The guys is young,good looking and rich. Women would be all over him. Joint the dots. He doesn't just walk into a crowded bar and go un-noticed and just start touching girls up ffs.

I'm not defending him. I'm just looking at information presented and filling in some gaps. Of course media want to make to story worse then it possibly maybe

A can’t see any situation whereby we announce him on the team sheet on Tuesday with his court date not until Wednesday.

police would have checked the venue cctv before arresting and charging.

5 separate charges is specific and likely based on evidence already viewed.
If a complainants tells the cops “he touched me 5 times” they don’t slap 5 charges on you without evidence, you cop one initial charge whilst they investigate further.
I think Dyl may be in a spot of bother


Look I've got a mate in the legal system. Work for a big time firm. Blokes got multiple PHDs. He knows the system.
I'll ask him what's the go

An AVO was granted? Is this a domestic situation? Otherwise wouldn't a PVO or bail conditions suffice, if the alleged victim is unknown to him?

Police raised the AVO not the female. It's probably standard protocol when something like this happens.

Yes, I found that part of the article interesting. I thought AVOs were more for people who were known and/or that you'd expect to come across again/regularly?

Either way I'd think Asi might be named on the extended bench come Tuesday - just gives BA more options depending how the week unfolds. Asi could cover fullback if Gutherson moves to five-eighth, or possibly a stint at five-eighth himself. Also how BA uses Hands and Hodgson might become part of the mix, e.g. leaving them on the field together for a bit and one doing some time as a halves playmaker.

Reading the article it seems as though it was one person who complained to the venue and the venue contacted the police. One would guess they looked at their CCTV footage beforehand however that doesn't guarantee that anything was captured.
And the venue staff are probably all Roosters fans... Probably doctored the footage just to get our superstar suspended... Pricks....

We'll wait for the details I suppose. I've got a feeling it might be someone he knows.


There are two types of AVOs:

An ADVO relates to the protection of a person/s where a domestic relationship exists between the parties. An APVO relates to the protection of a person/s where there is no domestic relationship between the parties, eg co-workers and neighbours.

Yep, understood.
