No.


Yes.

When evidence on show like this, I think it's every RL fan's responsibility to take a step back and try to be as objective as possible regardless of sentiment or the player concerned.

I agree with that 100% .

Not at all, it's quite pathetic considering your club has a history or helping it's players evade prison sentences for violent offences and also trying to bring another thug in the country...

No sentiment, just looking at the bigger picture. That cctv footage shows a small part of what happened that night. The judge was privy to that, most of us weren't. I've said I don't condone what he did and he deserves punishment, the judge has handed him what he considers a suitable punishment, after long consideration. Time for everyone to move on now I think.

And you'd still have the genorous liberal attitude if it was your son?
BLAH!

Fair points but there's no need to make light of the situation by branding it on the level of a school playground fight etc.

Where did I make light of it, that was a genuine comment and not meant to be at all light hearted. It was more suggesting a problem in society. I personally was quite shocked when my daughter said it.

And if it were your player?

We've already had it.
Your prodicle son anyone who's legal fees still need paying?
Raynor whos's black racially abusing a black doorman ( I know...I'm struggling with that one )
Why are they so mental on the beer?
