You sound like the kind of person who would care less about a female Aboriginal domestic violence victim then you would about a caucasian looking female victim of domestic violence.
I'd suggest the Melbourne supporters up in arms would have a vastly different view if Jurrah played for another club.
He should be deregistered immediately, just as the others (for far less) were.
Racial sensitivity and racism are different concepts..
Vice versa.
Why would we delist a star footballer for something he may not have done.

Well, you'd be wrong. Domestic violence and cultural justice are indeed different issues.
I wouldn't care more or less, just wouldn't be inclined to judge.
Would you say that you would be less inclined to judge an act of violence on an Aboriginal woman by an Aboriginal man than you would if a Caucasian man inflicted a violent act on a Caucasian woman?
I believe that we live under a unified set of laws, but areas such as Central Australia are harder to Westernise - and for good reason.
It's not colour of the skin, its history and place of residence.
Seems pretty surprisingly that he's back in the side. Can't imagine there's been many allowed to play with those kind of charges hanging over their head.
Yes we do know the charges, despite you refusing to acknowledge them.
Unlawfully causing serious harm, being armed with an offensive weapon at night and now another fresh 4 charges of aggravated assault. Lucky not to be charged with attempted manslaugher.
The fact he's been selected to play this weekend reflects very poorly on your club.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure that 'attempted manslaughter' doesn't exist. That would imply that the person was intending to kill them, without intent, or through negligence. Doesn't really seem to fit.Attempted manslaughter hey? The attempted negligent death? Be pretty unlucky to get that one I'd say.
These wouldn't be "new" charges, they would just be the first time the details have been released to the public.
In this case I believe that the AFL would strenuously object to a player being given a match if he was under the same scrutiny but of a different background to Jurrah.

Guy is innocent until proven guilty. Time for you to all shut up until further notice. That or go and live in France where it's the opposite way around.
