Agreed.
There is no room for compromise on this.

The matter needs to be investigated first.

has done an ACL.
I detest his club, but you wouldn't wish that on anybody.

 

[jimmy35]

Yes it’s pretty shit for a player. All the best in your recovery Jack.

 

[Lockyer24]

The club shouldn’t be posting on Australia Day. It should be in a neutral position.

 

[domus]

Jesus!
Will he never learn?
His career, no, his life, hangs in the balance.
If he continues on this path, he goes down the toilet.

Sigh. It's an allegation. When will people learn? Degoey was hung, drawn and quartered for things he never did by many of his own supporters. Now, he is an admired leader and one of the reasons we are the current champions of the AFL.

What the heck does De Goey have to do with the Thomas situation? Not remotely similar.

There's a fair distance between Jordy's drunken escapades and Thomas' priors of domestic violence and the like.

North move to distance themselves from Tarryn Thomas until investigation is over

Tarryn Thomas has effectively been handed down his third club ban in a little more than 12 months.The troubled North Melbourne talent was told on Sunday following domestic violence claims against him ...

An allegation has been made. Allegations were made against Degoey and many were ready to lynch him based on allegations. Some are ready to do the same to Thomas. It's wrong.

Until charges are proven nobody should have their face and name published as though they are guilty.

According to the media Degoey had prior offences too Some have short memories.

Degoey waa called out for alleged sexual assault in Bali. Even though his girlfriend laughed it off many were frothing at the mouth and wanted him out. Someone should pull up that thread.

Yes, but the allegations are totally different. Can’t you see that your comparison is poor?

I dunno, they have indigenous staff and players directly impacted by the issue, i've got no issue with the club stating what they believe in, assuming they have spoken to everyone about it

no thanks

it's a fairly innocuous statement

What’s poor is anyone coming to any opinion on Thomas’ current investigation. Right now the only thing being reported is that there has been an online complaint about “inappropriate behaviour”.

Wait.

Why should any allegation be treated as proof of guilt? It's outrageous. Can you imagine how you would feel if someone with an agenda accused you of something and your face and name was splashed all over the media platforms and you had no way of defending yourself as your accuser can remain anonymous.

Even when the accuser is known it is wrong. What is wrong with waiting for the court proceedings to play out? Why are we so anxious to pile on? The whole system is a disgrace.

I don’t recall expressing an opinion in regards to his guilt , only that his situation is not comparable to De Goey.

It’s also disgraceful how many women suffer domestic violence.

He doesn't have any priors of domestic violence, stop talking utter shit.

I took the comparison as both JDG and TT being condemned before the matter had been finalised- which is fair enough.

Pretty sure you were an early caller on JDG?

Yes, I was. Happy to admit I got that wrong, no need to discredit me.

In relation to the post by Domus, I just didn’t see the point of the comparison, enough just to point out he has not been found guilty of anything.

Whilst I agree in principle, Thomas’ priors are genuine and make Jordy look like a choir boy.
His career does hang in the balance as it stands.
It is best to wait before condemning though.

Always.

 

[jmac70]

Always.

Do you think clubs should have the right to stand players down who have been accused or charged with violence against women?
