The original report said that Andrew went on the field and proceeded to walk towards the ref in a straight and direct manner
Any journo worth their salt would know that Andrew's body is not physically capable of such movements and as such the report is a complete fabrication
I think this is the best evidence we have so far in Andrew's Defence. Well said Gards. Totally agree!

This will drag on for weeks, every time our club is mentioned this will come up. even if they somehow get off
**** sticks so they say
No it won't , the boys have lawyered up , big difference , that crap Buzz wrote will cost the Tele. Sharks have learnt a lot since the 2013 . Listen to the news and all the channels are treading lightly due to the inconsistencies from witnesses .
The big positive that is coming out of this is it is highlighting how much work in the community David and Andrew contribute to junior rugby league .

Be interesting on nrl360 tonight see if Kent starts throwing punches from the cheap seats about fifs x 2 and the sharks.. If it's true they have lawyerd up and looking for a defamation case.

The sheer cost stops so many athletes and celebrities taking defamation action. I doubt the fifitas and sharks will take that route.

No journalist will ever eat their words or apologise. They believe they are above the common folk.

Idiotic behaviour, worth 2 weeks each plus a 10% salary donation to the Refs Association. Apologies humble pie etc- All if proven of course!

Should of heard Webster on Big Sports Breakfast this morning. Him and TK waxing on about what a great human SKD is and he needs our support etc etc yet both Fifitas should be ashamed and rubbed out etc. was the same story on the afternoon show yesterday with Tunks and Hughes and Co. Got me stuffed why I listen. I only end up with the ****s and screaming at the radio

Yeah, I hate this **** as well. No fellas, he ain't a great human. He is an alleged woman basher. The blokes already fallen back on the old mental health defence as soon as he was charged. It's just a defence ploy. SKD and the Fiffita's should all be ashamed but for different reasons.

Just circle the wagons and tell them all to go stick it. Defend our blokes to the hilt. It will mean plenty to them and the rest of the players. I'll be disappointed if they miss more than a week.

I heard the case of Alistair Clarkson, the Premiership winning Hawthorn coach was raised on the radio this morning. He had a verbal crack at a junior referee at his son's game a few years ago. His punishment? An apology and a (short) ban from the junior league. Link

Similarly, Paul Roos entered the field of play at a junior game a few years ago. Not dissimilar circumstances - a player was hurt and he was concerned. AFAIK no sanction because he stuck to his guns. Link

Precedent, lack of evidence and the principle of proportionality are on our side. The only court that would pass any sanction against these two is the court of public opinion led by chief merkins Rothfield and the aptly named Kent. The thing is, their opinions don't matter one iota so lawyer the fuq up and don't give an inch to the media lynch mob.

yeah if no.1 sharks supporter buzz and his gang didnt make such a big deal about going all gunds blazing when they didn't know the full story it all could be handled differently

fifita bros apologise to the ref, abit of community service to the penrith junior league etc....
im sure its just a heat of the moment thing trying to help their injuried player from the field

instead of getting the laywers in dragging the players and the club through the mud.

don't know if its been bought up.....but the club has played this well as far as barring the boys straight after the dogs game.
Regardless imo they will get some time off but by standing them down now, the time off has started.
We will need them more than ever at the end of the season than we do now.....so rep for the club

I'm no doctor but what mental health issue causes wife beaten?

Has he previously been diagonsied with something and medicated? And then proceeded without medication causing a few outbursts?
