    The coward still won't identify himself

    Yet the media and him have added this to the story:

    they believed the woman involved was an flight attendant or airport employee
    

    Small airport, female employee, photo of her from behind.. All her friends and family will know exactly who it is. How is that fair?

    That kind of comes with the territory when you do something like that in a public place with a high profile place, no?

    Sure you don't factor in the media shit storm, but you can't protest that your privacy is being invaded when you gave that up to kick this whole thing off. Could easily be sprung bad and face employment or police charges or be spotted by a family or friend and net the same result.

    She isn't a victim and doesn't deserve name suppression, at the same time outing who this lady is adds little value to the story and the media have been pretty responsible IMO of not making this lass a household name.

    Much like that couple in the office building window in Christchurch a few years back, when you take risks like that it isn't incumbent on the media to stop close friends and family from putting two and two together. It is awfully nice of them to not blast your name everywhere - if this had occurred in the UK she would be front page not Smith.

      This couple are first class cowards. The husband doesn't wear the pants in that relationship. His wife sounds like a complete cow. What did they think would happen by releasing it to the media seriously...ignorant. He's now gone on to say sorry and out the female as airline staff!! Shut up man you are making it worse!!! How incredibly stupid. If his wife is so righteous and moralistic she should have no problem revealing her identity...

          Given the thread I am clearly in the minority here, but I kind of agree with the wife.

          "She said we shouldn't have had to wait like peasants to use the baby's room so that an over-paid rugby player could entertain female company. She is still fuming."

          Fair enough too. What a ridiculous thing to do given his profile, while flying with the team, when he has a partner who is therefore in the public eye as well.

          Personally, I wouldn't go as far as recording it and giving it to the press if was there, but I don't think vilifying someone who does is reasonable either.

            I feel like that's the first time we've been told they were waiting to use the bathroom after him? I wasn't under the impression that this is what happened.

              @Milk Ah ok, to be fair I've mostly been relying on the thread to keep up with what's been happening. I guess disabled loos have baby changing facilities as well so it makes sense, and makes them come off a bit better than someone just randomly lurking outside a loo?

                I'm not 100% sure, but I was just under the impression they watched them go in? Otherwise what made them get the camera out if they didn't know an All Black was in there.

                  The so called apology and the rationale (wife's) smacks of attempted damage limitation to me.

                    I can't for the life of me figure how they thought it would be nothing news....and to think that then decide to go straight to the media instead of to the NZRU who they supposedly think need to answer to this? Yeah, nah.

                    Waiting like peasants huh, methinks not quite. Dickheads.

                      Ha!! that is new information and different to their initial story, as was the concern about the woman being an airline/airport staff member.

                      Human brain is a weird and wonderful thing when you are trying to justify being a dick to yourself.... and the nation...

                        Colour me confused. First it was a disabled persons toilet and therefore a crime against wheelchair users but now it's a baby changing toilet?
                        So what happens if a disabled person needs to go to the toilet while a parent mucks around in there organising the five bags of baby kit they must carry at all times? Does that poor disabled person have to wait 'like a peasant'?

                          I feel like this says more than anything else. And yes, couple, you are perverts. No one who records a pair of strangers having sex in a bathroom is doing it for reasons of outrage. As for trying to deflect onto the woman Smith was with by offering details, this just makes you suck even more as humans. Fuck you both. At any point here, you could have let this story die. BUT YOU KEEP MAKING MORE COMMENTS. I hope you are outed. You made your bed, now lie in it.

Surely it was a disabled toilet, I can't image Smith going "yeah let's rock into the fucking parents room with kids everywhere and knock one out...".

                                In some disabled toilets they have a fold down baby changing table because there is usually more room in those facilities.

                                I make no comment on what said baby changing table was used for whilst Mr Smith occupied it....

                                  She is turning out to be a right shit, this woman. The husband sounds like he's throwing her under the bus. If their relationship encounters some temporary friction because of their actions, then that is probably deserved. Sure they are only the messenger, but their behaviour reeks.

                                  I also don't understand why she says Aaron Smith is overpaid. He is surely among the top 5 or 10 rugby players in the world. Anyone who is that good in a field which is highly competitive deserves to be handsomely rewarded.

                                    She is turning out to be a right shit, this woman. The husband sounds like he's throwing her under the bus. If their relationship encounters some temporary friction because of their actions, then that is probably deserved. Sure they are only the messenger, but their behaviour reeks.

                                    I also don't understand why she says Aaron Smith is overpaid. He is surely among the top 5 or 10 rugby players in the world. Anyone who is that good in a field which is highly competitive deserves to be handsomely rewarded.

                                    He's massively underpaid considering the offers he must be getting from up north. What a bitter woman lol.

                                        Incorrect. He isn't grabbing her pussy enough.

                                          The husband probably has to make an appointment to even broach the topic.

                                          Maybe I'm being harsh. He probably gets some on his birthday. If he's good.
