[The better Robbo]

The fact that he had just had surgery and supposedly scaled a fence.... doesn't that straight away cause some "doubt" ? If there is any more holes in the witnesses stories then surely they can't prove "beyond reasonable doubt"

"If the sling fits, you must acquit!"

Very clever!

As an educated guess (Google Street view); I don't think it's a big fence. Probably 3-4 ft rather than 6+

 

[The Wheel]

On Ch 7 news they said police had pictures of him retreating over the fence/wall

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

No, I reckon they really were saying he scaled a fish, journo mis-heard and reported as 'fence', this could also explain why the knife was there.
(Hey - I thought that speculation was futile, but it is actually fun!)

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Did he have a rotator cuff ? If so he ain't scaling any fence . All a bit suss to me .

Having had one , absolutely, there’s NO WAY IN HELL he could climb a fence after that operation for 4-5 months.

 

[Highflier]

I say again ,,,,Is there a knife and does it have Manase s fingerprints on it ?

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Not that we've heard mention of so far, but that is certainly not necessary for successful prosecution. From the snippets reported so far it is clear that identification will be the issue.
Also, possibly some Silvertails members who have had shoulder surgery will be called to give some expert evidence for the defence.

That will be the telling point in this case.

Happy to offer my expert opinion if required..lol

No knife has been found according to news reports tonight

I had a shoulder ACL reconstruction a week ago today. It was a 3 hour surgery and it still hurts like hell.

Granted, the surgery was not done in Oz, but it was done by first world trained doctors using first world techniques and equipment.

Okay, so I am not 21 either, but I can't even get the bloody sling off by myself let alone jump a 3 foot fence.

I can barely stick my middle finger up when my wife takes the p!$$ out of me (many times a day) for my inability to do basic things like attend Church dances, stab people in the back, pull up my own pants and shower without her very kind assistance.

I think it's quite clear to everyone what it is I'm trying to say here. I'm just a big, fat, hairy, lazy, princess on medical leave for the next 4 weeks that needs to harden up. There's a whole world of stuff that I am missing out on because of this pain I'm pretending to experience.

You can’t even lift your arm, let alone use it to climb a ****ing fence!!

Call me old fashioned, but I’d much rather it was proven that he didn’t do it rather than not enough evidence to convict.

This guy still might play for our club and I want to know he is a decent person if I’m going to support him

Yer they are a painful recovery mate and scaling a fence is out .

And how hard is it trying to wipe your own arse

 

[EOL now nesting on the GC]

Lots of heated support and conjecture on here but one line of thought is once again missing...

We dont need this as a club. This kid guilty or otherwise has put himself in a position that has once again sullied our clubs name and standing.

Is it any wonder we have a garbage company as a major sponsor. Blue chip companies wouldnt touch us with a barge pole.

DW did it last year and before the 'not guilty brigrade' start tapping away the damage was still done....

So in summation I would like to ban any talk of a new owner, sponsors or investment because while ever we have these boys blackening the Many seaeagles brand we might as well just shut up and take it as gospel that we will remain at the bottom of the desirability tree....

I personally think black is quite desirable

 

[Bring back the.... Biff?]

I can't think of anything to type but to say I liked the movie!

Yes but who would play the starring role? Dwayne Johnson?
Old ass Stallone?
Mark Sinclair?

And I say... it was Colonel Mustard, with the candlestick, in the dining hall.
