    @Steven-Harris Yeah, if found guilty and resulting in a conviction, this could cost him a possibly good career in rugby. Shame.

    @Stargazer Only have to look to Reece's situation to know that this prick won't get a conviction.

      @Yeetyaah Gee I’m not so sure, the nature of the offence could be a telling factor..it’s not gonna be a good look if for instance he gets some sort of suspended or supervised sentence.

        @Stargazer this is so dumb on many levels, he’s actually a bloody talented player..it’s what a union like Southland not to mention the player himself needed like a hole in the head..

        You clearly didn't know some of the girls I did when in my teens.

        Don't the courts have a rugby player clause / precedent to let him off these days?

              Either way, I hope in this case, as he isn't too established as a rugby player, NZR promptly terminate his contract if he's found guilty. I thought I was okay with Reece as everyone deserves a chance to better themselves but I've since decided his rapid rise doesn't sit well with me. Won't go further into that as this isn't the thread for it.

                @Yeetyaah I don't think he's contracted to NZR; only to Southland.

                Edit: maybe he still has a development contract with the Highlanders.

                        @Machpants I think there's a difference between speculating about sports/games etc and cases to be heard by the courts, judicial bodies etc.

                            @taniwharugby No, procedures before judicial bodies (in rugby) aren't like Kangaroo courts. A lot of people just don't understand the procedures, the rules and/or how they are applied. That's fine, by the way, but that statement is incorrect.

                                          That's how much I'd let them pay me to take it off their hands.
