Re: Charges against Latrell Mitchell and Jack Wighton dropped

"We do seem to have a situation here where evidence was brought forward by the defence that was not provided to the prosecution," Attorney-General Shane Rattenbury said on Thursday. "We need to get to the bottom of how and why that occurred." The prosecution never bothered to ge...

Re: NRL superstars Latrell Mitchell and Jack Wighton face court over alleged fight

I’d mentioned here before seeing first hand the different ‘no worries boys attitude’ by ACT Police over some very very poor behaviour by private school rugby boys in Braddon compared to the punishment the police dished out to some aboriginal kids around Erindale about a week later. This Latrell Jac...

Re: NRL superstars Latrell Mitchell and Jack Wighton face court over alleged fight

Oooh, some of the comments on this page aged like absolute milk . Canberra Milk, even. It's very worrying that this is now the third time in three years that a Raider has been screwed over by a police officer flagrantly lying. The even more worrisome thing is that if they feel empowered enough to d...

For those who don't get it, it might make more sense if you consider that lawyers also make more money if it drags out... but hey, might just be an insane conspiracy theory.

Re: 2023 Rd 26 v Broncos: Game Day

IF AI was ever able to make the players unidentifiable I think it would be very interesting to see how refs would call plays re watching a game.
It would really show how much ( hopefully unintentional) bias goes into a refs decision making
