ha ha well I may have embellished for effect but the rest of my point stands. No one else would be charged for this.
We continue to **** about with blokes that are part of some fraternity. It's infuriating.

If they did, we wouldn't know about it.

The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.
If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

Any other circumstances and the Telegraph would be branded "peeping toms".

Correct. It's really interesting what people let an unscrupulous new organisation to get away with if they are feeding a narrative they support.Cranky Old Man wrote: ↑October 25, 2018, 1:14 pm Any other circumstances and the Telegraph would be branded "peeping toms".

You just can't defend the DT. The way they publicised the hotdogs but overlooked James Hooper

Wow this thread has gotten weird, even for us. Funny, but weird.
Re: NRL ban Jack Wighton for 10 matches, impose $30,000 fine
It's on Reddit, you'd think it will be in the news soon enough.
Re: NRL ban Jack Wighton for 10 matches, impose $30,000 fine
It will be out soon enough.
It makes him look a goose, but it's not like he's missing training and ignoring the coach. Just being a Jackass who can't learn a lesson.
It's his off season and he's letting loose before his big court date. It probably explains why his footy has never progressed the way it could have- pissing his talent up the wall.
Perfect fuel to any possible "public outcry" too. Particularly if anyone was injured badly in the attack and it gets run alongside a story of how that person is still suffering whilst Jack is still being a wanker.

Re: NRL ban Jack Wighton for 10 matches, impose $30,000 fine
I'm pretty tolerant of players been idiots but given the context he probably should be sacked.

Yeah, agree. We’ve sacked for less.

Re: NRL ban Jack Wighton for 10 matches, impose $30,000 fine
What an amazing human being though.
Beats up innocent people. Pleads guilty to assault amongst other things. Continues to carry on like a goose to the point your own partner posts a pic on social media about how much of a piece of work you are, then someone shares the comments stream relating to your partners posts where you even show how little you care about anyone just days before your sentencing.
It's amazing. It's truly amazing how stupid this guy is. The sooner he is sacked the better.

I don’t want Wighton in my team. Will never support him as a player.
Is it a wonder the team lacks ability to make the right decisions in games with players like this in the spine?

This is also yet another nail in Ricky’s coffin for me. Would he protect Oldfield or Murchie in the same situation?

Re: NRL ban Jack Wighton for 10 matches, impose $30,000 fine
thats it for me, i knew enough about the type of person he is from some people that know him in orange.
i dont want him anywhere near this team anymore, hes another carney.
has no idea he did anything wrong, just looked up the post on reddit, and for a guy with some young children, its just mind blowing how stupid he is, he needs to be sacked, if ricky refuses, then he needs to go too.
disgusting excuse for a professional sportsman

Re: NRL ban Jack Wighton for 10 matches, impose $30,000 fine
I'm again starting to wonder if this is why the Dufty rumours have been intensifying in the last few days. Why else would we be chasing a specialist fullback?

Re: NRL ban Jack Wighton for 10 matches, impose $30,000 fine
I think it was to play Jack at 5/8th. If Jack does go we should be straight on the phone to Shaun Johnsons manager.
Problem is as he has shown up for the first day of training I believe he will be eligible for a 3rd of his cash.

Re: NRL ban Jack Wighton for 10 matches, impose $30,000 fine
Can someone who knows how the legal system works explain this to me if this is the kind of thing the magistrate can consider when sentencing? Him very publicly going off the rails and showing no reform in the intervening period?

I could come around to loving Jack Wighton again if his behaviour of late leads to us having enough money to make a play at Shaun Johnson.

Not a good look but hardly a sackable offence.
