#Lake’s counsel say he is "guilty of aggressive wrestling"

Guilty of aggressive wrestling?

Hahahahahahahahahaha.

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

Probably locked himself in his house just incase....

He locked himself in? Only if he ate his own key.

 

[Benno_900]

TBF, Petrie did poke his eye out.

He couldn't really see what he was grabbing.

Lake rep: now admits if trib finds there was contact to the throat it was not ontentional . argues it was low impact

What is this lawyer doing?

Hawthorn FC ‏@HawthornFC 17s
Lake said he was reacting to having Petrie's hands near his face. He wasn't going to "sit back and take it"


Despite already having his hands around Petrie's throat..

Nathan Schmook:
They say if Lake does make contact to Petrie's throat it should not be seen as intentional as he was trying to get home of the jumper.

It should be considered low impact.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

This is as close to the chewbacca defense as you can get.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Lake vs petrie.

 

[Roobound]

Looking good for him

18:36

Nathan Schmook:
They also say conduct should be considered negligent.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Aiming for Low impact, negligent, high contact... really.

 

[Devington]

Guilty of wrestling. well, aggressive wrestling. oh and if he did do anything wrong it was low impact. and uh negligent. :S awks

 

[Roobound]

Ok maybe not l wish he (Nathan) had clarified this earlier

18:37

Nathan Schmook:
'they' is Lake's counsel.

Lakey made the honest mistake of getting jumper and trachea confused, understandable, with his eye poked out

Used to have a mate that wore glasses.

Went to take his shirt off one night without them on and ripped his own trachea out.

Was a sad sight.

Nathan Schmook:
Chairman now summarising for the jury

 

[Dirty_11]

18:25

Nathan Schmook:
They also want to point out the fact Lake has not spoken since the match despite constant media commentary.

So?

I would be hopeless on a jury, but reckon lake rep argued well ... footage does show grabbing of jumper near throat or on throat

Could've just stopped after the first 7 words.

 

[Roobound]

Lake retires for a rest its been a little stressful

Only the defamation laws stopped me posting something similar earlier!

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

... One step forward, seven steps back with Robbo ...
