Where have all these Richmond ferals come from?

 

[Terry Tan]

Like 99% of Big Footy posters !

except that most posters don't go around beating innocent people up & putting them in hospital clown

look at me I'm Chris Tarrant with big bicep muscles and small balls...he's a ****ing scumbag.

 

[chapmanmagic35]

Of course. But where does it actually state, as a fact, Taz and Jonnos involvement?

Collingwood released a statement claiming they were involved.

They can't make the finals, they may as well talk about something.

From The Age website:

Collingwood players Chris Tarrant and Ben Johnson are under investigation by Victoria Police over a weekend assault that left a man unconscious.

The club has released a statement confirming the pair's involvement in "an incident in Port Melbourne early Sunday morning".

Police say the victim and four other men were leaving a venue at Station Pier between 3.30am and 4am when they saw the brawl.

The victim saw one man kicking another man who was on the ground.

He was punched from behind and knocked unconscious when he tried to separate the pair.

The man was taken to the Austin Hospital where he was treated for lacerations to his face and mouth.

The club said both players had voluntarily provided statements to police and were continuing to assist police with their inquiries.

"The club is extremely disappointed that both players were out late at night," the statement said.

AFL spokesman Patrick Keane said police had not approached the league about the incident.

South Melbourne detectives have appealed for witnesses to the brawl.

Police are urging anyone with information to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or http://www.crimestoppers.com.au

Another witness.
Quick get over the Sth Melb cop shop and give them your statement

Bit slow on the uptake are we?

 

[Murray]

Collingwood released a statement claiming they were involved.

But no-one deny's that.
Not even Tarrant and Johnson

So what?

 

[Palmer Stoat]

Bit slow on the uptake are we?

I think it's more a case of innocent till proven guilty. But have it your way.

Get a new line fella.

When these clowns end up getting charged will you come back here and admit they need to get the sack or will you still be spinning your little web of intrigue?

 

[Blues_Man]

Its really about the point he was making.

EVERY club, including yours has this type of issue in thier history

lol gotta love a pies fan squirming like a worm on a hook if this was another club involved you would be in there boots and all

 

[Waverley73]

I think it's more a case of innocent till proven guilty. But have it your way.

He said that their involvement hadn't been proven but that is incorrect (Collingwood statement proves that).

 

[Johnson#26]

Involved can mean anything.

 

[Murray]

Get a new line fella.

When these clowns end up getting charged will you come back here and admit they need to get the sack or will you still be spinning your little web of intrigue?

And if they are not charged you will look like an idiot ............. damn you beat me to it.

What is wrong with defending your players??? No-one knows exactly what happened yet.

 

[Waverley73]

Absolutely. They don't want to take their cough medicine but it really is their turn.

 

[Johnson#26]

Bit slow on the uptake are we?

I should have worded it better: What extent does 'involved' go to?

Nicks BB has some pretty interesting 'rumours' on it all...

 

[Murray]

He said that their involvement hadn't been proven but that is incorrect (Collingwood statement proves that).

Errr no. A court proves guilt not a newspaper (Year 11 Legal Studies you must have been away that day)

Gutless pricks

Serves him right for sticking his nose in doesnt it.

Two people having a fight is normal. Always one person is going to loes.

 

[Palmer Stoat]

They may get charged; they may be found guilty. Until they are, they're entitled to the presumption of innocence. What part of this do you not understand?

 

[Waverley73]

And if they are not charged you will look like an idiot ............. damn you beat me to it.

We'll see wont we? You didn't answer my question.

 

[Ron]

Ugh
Stupid, stupid boys. Two idiots if i ever saw it, being out that late is just asking for trouble.

So you prefer to continue to think of them as heroes. I suppose being involved in a serious assault at 3.00am during the season is fine then?

 

[RogerRabbit69]

And if they are not charged you will look like an idiot ............. damn you beat me to it.

So Murray, how about those posts of yours regarding the Gardiner incident? Still choosing to ingore them, I see. Aaah, the irony ......
