Player Watch #21: Noah Balta - Suspended First 4 Games

[_RT_]

Balta has done absolutely nothing to deserve a 7yr contract. The club is a stuffen mess. The rot set in when Balme was sidelined and Livingstone promoted.

Balta’s pathetic fitness levels after 8 preseasons are an embarrassment for all concerned

just so disappointed by Noah.
regardless of when the truth of the incident comes out, he has let himself down along with the club.
act and carry oneself like a professional.
Getting involved was simply stupid..

Yeah, this is my thoughts too. Just disappointment he put himself in this situation.

Yeah, this is my thoughts too. Just disappointment he put himself in this situation.

Most of us are taking this line. Haven’t seen anyone say he was innocent as handed himself into police absolved any innocence. Some have questioned the reasoning but most of us are along the lines of dumb campaigner.

Aight, been watching this thread and biting my tongue. But can’t hold out much more from having my say. Obviously there is a lot of legal water to go under the bridge, so I will only say what is factual and wont cast any stones myself

The bloke who was hit was the one trying to defuse the fight/situation . Contrary to what a lot of people want to believe here, Noah was the last one in to what was to this point a non violent (albeit volatile) situation. The bloke who got hit copped a decent but not huge head gash (from a king hit from behind while standing trying to defuse a fight from happening), a concussion and in my opinion, the worst of all, fractured ribs from where he was kicked multiple times while he was on the ground.

I wont go into who, what started the initial confrontation because what I know about that is only speculation. But Noah was not part of it, nor was the bloke he hit.

I don’t expect everyone to take what I am saying as gospel. After all it is only an internet forum. I’m sure the truth will all come out closer to/after 30th Jan. Maybe the footage will even find its way out. But before slurring on the guy that was hit, please consider that just because Noah is a ‘hero’ in a lot of your eyes, does not mean he is immune to making a bad mistake like a lot of young, drunk blokes do. And remember, when casting your opinions or guessing what happened, the ‘flog’, ‘loser’, ‘campaigner’ that got hit is a human too.

Sorry for intruding. But hope I can shed some light!

SUNS I dont understand this - apologies I'm not trying to discredit it as I dont think you'd bother making this up. From your account it sounds like Balta didn't hit the guy that ended up in hospital? He was king hit from another guy? I dont understand what role Balta played in this - was he hitting / kicking the guy on the ground?

Mate this is way more than is being reported by any media outlet. So, if you are going to come in with this story and this much detail, then you need to back it up. At least state if you were a witness or just repeating hearsay? But be aware, a lot of people including media outlets read these posts so, if you say that you are a witness then the police will be made aware of your post on here.

He did say ‘the bloke Noah hit’.
So yes,he ‘allegedly’ did hit the guy who went to hospital.

Shocking must have photos or similar from his time at AFL house. He knows the inner secrets and hence the CFL lets him do what he likes

Baltas 4 weeks is from the club. CFL haven't handed down any penalties yet.

 

[Livonski]

Complete stupidity that the club would issue a games suspension prior to a court hearing. His lawyer would be pulling their hair out.

Wait until after the court hearing at the very least

What, you think he might get off?
Read the room mate. The club is obviously using info from…..Balta.

Won two flags covered in rot.

exactly, 'police will be made aware', if so, it would take VicPol a century to wade through the collective trash talked on here.

I'm pretty sure they appreciate this place for what it is!

yeah cfl totally kept out of it

 

[DickieKnee]

So far.

 

[Maurice Mitchell]

If I was a first year player I’d want Balta in my team each week playing alongside me. Bit like Marlion Pickett. They have your back. Good campaigners.

[captain bloodsport]

Putting yourself in that situation after signing a 7 year contract is unforgivable.

Please tell me that was htb

Free kick to Cripps and a 100 metre penalty
