So you are saying many smart young women are prepared to suffer bad behaivour , bashing, infidelity etc, at the hands of a bloke who supposedly loves them, because they cant go out and make a life and living for themselves , and get on with their lives without these blokes hanging off their arm ?  If thats the best they can make of their life, thats very sad.

Wacko



Obviously aa, she thought that she was the victim and if she withdrew the statement the charges would be dropped, but she obviously does not know that once a third party gets involved it does not matter if the statement is withdrawn, the charges stay and the case goes ahead. And the third party here were the witnesses who called the cops.

I find it absolutely illogical, that the Players Association have negotiated a 29% share of the broadcast money (remember the players threatened to strike during the season), and the players accepted responsibility for the sports image, yet the NRL do not have a clause in there saying that any of this off field bull#@it, means you forfeit the 29% share.

    
Remember, it might take intelligence to be smart , but it takes experience to be wise

That is the only reason I can imagine she would stick with him.

Why does any battered wife stay in an abusive relationship? Why should footballer's wives be any different to any other wife?

Scott Bolton escaped with a common assault downgrade with no conviction recorded in exchange for a guilty plea. 12 month good behavior bond.

After listening to that story, I am thinking it would never have gone anywhere if he wasnt a famous footballer.  You all know my opinions of some footballers, as knuckle draggers, but this was a bit over the top !  He touched her leg ?  Give us a break !  Dearie me.Ermm

Yes it was amazing it went anywhere. Had it not been for security cameras showing the ''incident'' and her insistence of action and the bar protecting themselves from litigation that it went anywhere at all. Not sure how how toughing someone's leg to urge them not to leave constitutes sexual assault, let alone common assault.

Dunno but does it have something to do with embarrassing videos and pictures of a former team-mate?

Dont know. I was wondering why you mentioned his name being a former team mate. 

Ferguson was supposed to have leaked a video of Kane Evans that went nowhere.

Paul Carter was accused of being the leaker but he denies it.
