The wonman did not tell bail police about this it is smart the player is now going to be guilty without his day in court, the matter should be dropped unless she does press chargers in bail, otherwise the AFL can not investigate, they are not a law in court.

 

Another act of treachery by Bail Justices.

You might get a clue if there is a player with a mysterious injury for several weeks at the start of the season.

It would not surprise me in the slightest.

Once it was a groin injury, chronic fatigue or depression. Now that this story is out the club has to get more creative.

It would surprise me...

If there are no charges then there is nothing the club should or needs to do, creative or otherwise.

Move on...

I agree, but that's not my point.

The AFL may want the "victim" to see that it has provided some form of justice, and that would not surprise me one bit.

well they didn't with milne. iirc. but i suppose that was quite some time ago and things have changed. still, they would need to have some good info/facts to do that and go public

Have we heard anything from the club? Surely this cannot drag on for months without anything happening.

What exactly is dragging on..?

It's done and will go no further.

I have heard that the investigation has been completed and that nothing more will be heard about it... why the nd have indicated they will not speak publicly.

Dismissed!!

??? Is there an article or a press release or something? 

Ok, so this sucks.  The player, the club and supporters all caught in some weird limbo.

No formal complaint has been made, or charge laid.

You Can not prove your innocence (or defend your actions) for something you haven’t been properly accused of.  And now it’s ‘closed’?

it would have been a pretty crappy Christmas for that individual player

At what point is this all formally closed, or does it remain open indefinitely?

it was important enough to be reported in all the papers.  Be nice if it has been ‘closed’ for some statement so this is not left hanging

I reckon the supporters are the only ones in limbo.  I am sure that the club and the player know exactly what is going on.

Not sure if it is closed. But also can't see how any statement can be made that hasn't so far, short of the woman involved releasing a statement, which is highly unlikely. The police can only say there has been no formal complaint, which they have. I guess, until a complaint is made and this blows up again, that's that.

Not to mention the woman concerned?

I think a few people here are remarkably confident that no incident ever happened, and quite possibly that no actual woman ever existed, either.

I get the views from both sides, but what’s remains is the club released a statement when this first came to the public’s attention a few weeks back, since then nothing. If there is no complaint/investigation/pending charges where is the follow up statement from the club.

the club flick-passed it to the afl. if there is a follow up it should first come from the afl. it could be that all parties plus the afl and club feel that the matter is closed and no ongoing publicity (i.e. communication) is the best solution in the circumstances and the media has agreed..........there again...........................

 

Without knowing anything about the case. It's always the girls' fault for the way she dresses and behaves-on that I'm sure we all agree.

Wonder what the relationship between the Club and the AFL is at the moment?

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
