Winner - Worst defence counsel argument in history

Actually, if there is no eyewitness to confirm identity I would have thought it was a good defence. Mind you, if the defendant did what he is charged with, I hope the jury has sufficient circumstantial evidence to find him guilty.

    Such a joke of a thing, the mistaken identity defence...

    Hopefully you never get accused of something you didn't do.

    Identity is crucial, cast enough doubt and the prosecution is in trouble.

    Defence lawyers are not supposed to come up with an actual defence, they are supposed to relay to the court what happened (according to their client).

    Seems a chance that the defence client remembered what happened after they saw a possible flaw in the video.

    Guys ... this was meant to be tongue-in-cheek. ie. RDB doesn't make mistakes!

    Untrue, a couple years back he passed his jumper onto a girl - thinking he was a guy and going to wear it proudly.

    Then again, he wasnt to know then that Scully didnt have a set.

    • PREVIEW: Brisbane

      They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.
