Yes we should be able to do anything we want at any time and have no repercussions at all.

You mean, like Dustys 4th goal in the grand final?

 

[LeeToRainesToRoach]

Sounds like a legal aid lawyer. Probably only appointed to the case in past day or so and hasn’t had a chance to do any work on it. This will be a negotiation between the defence and prosecution. Plead guilty, apologise unreservedly to the court and publicly supporting the government’s stance on COVID and the importance of quarantine etc...time served, small fine, some community service at some unspecified time in the future. Then his final chance at Richmond begins.

That would be the smart thing to do. Demonstrate contrition instead of claiming he was in Perth for a COVID test.

Would have got less for murder

if he was a white cop.......

Google her. She's done time working for the ALS but she's certainly in the big leagues now and should have been prepared unless, as you say, the club/Peos only just appointed her. Also possible that she wants to call family members as witnesses and it will take time to get them to Perth.

Thought a bail application was happening Friday?

 

[Althom]

His case was due to be heard today - not guilty, freedom with conditions, jail sentence - something. An end.

His legal counsel asked for the hearing to be adjourned for another two weeks. Possibly under instruction from Richmond's lawyers, I don't know. She didn't provide a reason.

His legal counsel also asked for a bail hearing to be set for Friday, which was granted.

Yeah it's disappointing that he's not free at this minute, but some posts are real eye-openers.

I think some of the reactions and the inference that this is somehow race related refer to the initial media report which was very lacking in detail.
It's only the latter reports which show that the adjournment was requested by his defence lawyer and which funnily enough were, initially, buried in somewhat more obscure papers that got the facts out

agree. I like what catman brings.

but Geelong blokes have no place in our stackman's thread,

unless they want to passively let as have our way, in the manner of Rhys Stanley

 

[zippadeee]

By the time they let him out he will be Top dog of Wentworth.
Others have spent less time in jail for Robbery.

 

[Quickdraw]

Pretty disgusting set of circumstances. Like most, I don't know all of the facts, but it looks totally disproportionate to the alleged "offence".

Then when you add the different treatment that other people have received, it makes me mad

He should get bail on Friday. No reason that he shouldn't unless there's something we don't know.

He should get bail on Friday. No reason that he shouldn't unless there's something we don't know.

If he is granted bail on Friday he will need somewhere to stay.
That may be causing the delay on release.
I doubt they would accept where he was staying in Belmont when he breached and his grandma may not be prepared to take him in after what he did first time around.

 

[Rfc4Ever]

Surely he will cop time served, might be a better option to just plead guilty and walk.

Gotta get past Lizzy Birdsworth and Queen Bea first.................................but the risk is getting ya head pressed in the laundry

Vinegar tits and the freak
And Judy and Doreen

 

[Bennnny]

I’m at a bit of a loss here.

Initially I had little compassion for him. Did the wrong thing and deserved a bit of a whack.

Now it seems somewhat draconian to keep him there for another 2 weeks.

System there in WA I am not familiar with, but surely this is inhumane.

But on another level altogether, i find myself asking would I give a *smile*, care so much if it was a Collingwood player for example, or just joe public?

This whole COVID thing sure does challenge your general line of thoughts on so many different levels.

His issue is being an aboriginal in WA.

Years back my favourite show on TV was prison break.
Thought it would be great to serve time in a American maximum prison .
So many great characters, fun and adventures to get in.

 

[Althom]

No, nothing to do with that at all.

Yes that's quite possible. Grandma and at least one sister seem quite anti over his behaviour.

 

[Dont Argue]

He should get bail on Friday. No reason that he shouldn't unless there's something we don't know.

Appreciate your commentary and providing updates Althom.
Fingers crossed he gets bailed and makes training on Monday ( wherever that may be). The sooner he gets arms wrapped around him the better
