Ok mate, I know that legal stuff is your vibe. I’ll leave it there.

How would accepting an indigenous person's 'truth' as the truth work?

Nothing about legal - it’s about the abject stupidity of anyone drawing conclusions on what has been reported so far. Right now, the only rational response is to wait for more information, not rush to pious garbage, which seems to be your vibe.

You’ve got the wrong end of my stick brother. Haven’t said anyone should make a conclusion right now.

Actually not true. I at least try to be succinct. Unlike weary mouth
That’s on them if they felt comfortable then and don’t feel comfortable now. That’s the life of the “ whistlblower”. It isn’t easy.

A huge swathe of people go to a journalist to tell their story.
Explain how that could possibly be "leaking" a story?

Regardless, the investigation will proceed. Their own conclusions, people can then draw.

Convert from English to Yoda speak. Yoda often orders sentences as Object-Subject-Verb, split verbs, switches entire phrases and sometimes uses sentences that are different from his normal syntax! Because of this it is difficult to accurately represent his sentence structure. But we tried hard...

In any case it could only be said you type too much, unless you read aloud as you type, in which case you need a bit of help.

Something along the lines of:
One version of truth is they did it. Another version of truth is they didn't. Due to the first version of the truth we are suspending the coaches indefinitely. However due to the other version it is a suspended suspension and the coaches can return to work immediately.

AFL have said they're running the inquiry with or without the claimants.
Good. It can't be allowed to drag on and on. If people's reputations and livelihoods are to be tarnished, let that happen immediately rather than at some unannounced time somewhere in the future. I would have also thought the claimants would want their allegations dealt with as soon as possible too.

I don’t see why the claimants would want this dealt with as soon as possible. They have already told their story, what do they have to gain by telling it again?
Surely they want some kind of outcome? I am sure they haven't told their story for the sake of it.
The claimants stated very early that they were happy to participate in any enquiry that was not controlled by the AFL.
So what happens? The AFL control the enquiry!
I will not blame any aboriginal player, or their partners, if they do not participate in this kangaroo court.

Oh well if they boycott the inquiry, their very serious claims will be dismissed and the football world will move on. Personally I don't recall them stating that they would not participate in an inquiry controlled by the AFL. Surely the AFL is the right body to deal with this situation.

You might not remember it but they did. They made a statement through their lawyer stating that they would participate in an enquiry that wasn't run by the AFL not long after the article was published. Surely you can empathise with why they wouldn't want the AFL to manage this if what they claim is true.

People keep saying this, or variants of it, but it doesn’t make sense. If not the AFL, which body would be appropriate to constitute the enquiry?

I can’t see who else would commission an enquiry/investigation if it wasn’t the AFL??
They’ve appointed independent and well credentialed barristers.

I cannot envisage any other body being more appropriate to manage the enquiry than the AFL. I see no reason why they would not give the claimants a fair hearing.
