[bondi-boy]

No wonder theres so many Homos in this world u cant do shit to get onto a chick...? any u blokes free? Melon is also lonely

Money seems to work.


Also...

"Tall dark and handsome, with a large income" was the top reply to the womens magazine desired date/boyfriend wish list survey.

Where do u get all your childish facts from? Honestly. U have no idea what you are talking about. Bird assaulted his girlfriend at Cronulla u idiot. And asked his flatmate to lie for him. His flatmate refused to do so. That showed Bird for what he is right there. But like usual she did what a lot of women do and retracted, then turned against the police who were trying to do the right thing by her. How do I know this? Because I was one of them u bird brain. Stephen J will back me up on that.
Honestly, you sound like u r 15 years of age.

Ferguson may very well get off because he didn't do it. He may also get off because this girl retracts her statement as well once she realises how much publicity there is. She may retract because his manager may offer her money to do so. But to a bird brain like you that would still equate to not guilty, wouldn't it.
Only a fool would want this idiot at our club.

Apparently he's a nice guy when not blind drunk.


I can only go by what I read in the media.
There's only one story, the truth.
I wasn't there, so I can only go by what's reported...and spoken and produced in court.


Bird's GF gave a statement to the police, I wasn't in that apartment either.
From memory she stated that she entered the apartment drunk and drugged, hurling things at him etc.
What I do know though is that in domestic disputes there are usually two people at it, hurling abuse both verbal and/or physical.

Greg Bird cleared of assault charge and named in Indigenous All Stars team

A young woman, Victoria Shannon, told police she was assaulted and verbally abused by Bird in the Fusions nightclub in January 2008.

But he wasn't charged until eight months later - when he was charged with glassing Ms Milligan after a heated argument between the pair in his Cronulla flat.

Since that time, he has spent in excess of $150,000 fighting to clear his name, a mission that was completed resoundingly yesterday. The magistrate found that, in fact, he had been the victim, Ms Shannon instigating the incident with a spiteful comment: "You're just a f ... wit footballer."

Bird told The Daily Telegraph that kind of abuse and harassment - when he was just enjoying a night out with teammates - happens far more than is reported. "I guess rugby league players in particular are targeted and I guess we just have to cop it on the chin, but in this case - and other cases - it's physical harassment," he said.

BB, honestly , I rarely come on here calling people idiots and similar. I hate keyboard heroes. I don't like people doing it to me so I should treat people similar, but honestly, you gotta way of saying things. I am 47 and yes, was a cop for over 20 years. And I think I was a pretty fair minded one who tried to do the right thing always.
A couple of pointers for you. Journalists do not always tell u the truth. and yes, neither do some cops. Journoshave agendas and very little accountability, unlike modern day police. I can't stand a lot of them for that very fact. I read the article you attached and I laugh. Why? Coz I know a lot of it did not happen. This was a glassing. To your girlfriend? There are also many things NOT in that article which u are not aware of. Like the ladies initial admissions , which 99% of the time is the truth. He real ones. After influences are brought against the victim, its amazing how things change. I know what happened that morning, as do my partners, him and her. Surely u do not believe everything u read in the paper.
Anyway, I have said my piece. I do not think Ferguson will play again this year

I am half your age again, and have lived a long time, and seen many things.
Domestic violence for example...there is rarely one person in the fight...usually alcohol, sometimes violence, words are bullets.
Liza throwing lamps at her husband, for example.
A former boss of detectives [now deceased] was a friend of mine....he told me many things, many true stories...and gave me much good advice.

Bird was charged with assaulting a woman in a niteclub...separate altogether from his girlfriend case.
As my article proved, he was innocent...in fact it was she who was guilty...why wasn't she then charged?

Jake and Sandor were charged with 'hitting a woman'.
They too were proven completely innocent.


If the girlfriend lady's initial admissions were not made public, then I can't use them in any internet postings.
I can only go by her statement to the court/police.

I notice that in most of these "domestic violence" cases involving footballers etc, the women seem very reluctant to go to court, sit in the dock and bear witness, under oath, to what exactly they did and said in the 'fight'.

Does domestic violence happen between BF/GF, married couples...including glassings?
Of course it does, alcohol, words are bullets, tempers flare, I wasn't born yesterday.
heated argument between the pair in his Cronulla flat.

Grant, drunk...also a heated argument in the apartment, reportedly...luckily he only smashed up stuff and not people.

I don't believe everything I read in the paper, but most of it turns out to be true, with or without a journalist's slant.

Not dumb at all.
He hasn't been convicted of anything yet.
Just because the cops charge people doesn't mean they're guilty...look at Jake Friend and Bird.
Bird was charged with assaulting a woman in a niteclub...then on the first day of his trial the CCTV was produced which showed that he did no such thing, and in fact the girl hit him.

Jake was charged with 'hitting a woman' in that niteclub/bar/pub, the CCTV showed he was nowhere near the altercation and ice-throwing.
Sandor was also charged and as I remember it he was innocent too.

Ferguson, if rehabilitated, should be signed by us.
We can help him have a future, as well as benefit ourselves.
If convicted, he'll be sentenced to something...the victim will have gotten justice in the court, and there's only the future left.
To avoid a prison sentence he'll need to show that he's undertaking a new lifestyle/rehab and he'll never do again anything like whatever he was convicted of.
The Men of League are supposed to be helping all their flock, even the ones who have sinned because of a problem with alcohol.

Just like we did with Carney

When you're in the depths of despair it's always good to have someone come and collect you.

Radio news just now;

'Anthony Mundine has advised disgraced NRL player Blake Ferguson to give up alcohol'

Wise words indeed.



"I didn't really realise how good I had it until I didn't [have it] any more" - Greg Bird

[bondi-boy]

Just like we did with Carney

We nearly won a Grand Final with Todd Carney.

If only he'd given up alcohol.

[bondi-boy]

Rehab isn't easy..."everything has to be different" .

All shown clearly in the movie 28Days starring Sandra Bullock

The court of public opinion should not determine if ferguson plays for us.

Trust our recruitment policy and staff. If they believe he is a good cultural fit for us he will be signed and I will back the club. Not that anyone cares.

Recent player moves seem to indicate that we are prepared to give young blokes a go, warn them, and piss them off if they bugger up again. Which is how it should be at a place of work.

Ferguson has been stood down by the Raiders for 4 weeks, until after his court case...where he has to go for a criminal trial.
He's been ordered to undergo an "alcohol management program".

Imagine! going to court for a criminal trial.
Then, if you're found guilty, standing before the judge for sentencing...that would be a nightmare.
Should scare him off alcohol for life.
Should.

Steve Mortimer or someone else today, there were so many people shown giving opinions on the 6 oclock tv news, stated that Ferguson should have an older mentor.

He should, one who lives with him permanently for the next few years at least.

Where is he living now?
With parents, a parent, by himself, other footballers?
Because wherever he's living and with whom...ain't working so well.

I'm not sure any club would touch him if he's found guilty, as Paul Kent pointed out, he would be a registered sex offender, not a good look.

[roostersrule2]

I'm not sure any club would touch him if he's found guilty, as Paul Kent pointed out, he would be a registered sex offender, not a good look.

And if we did sign him, I could just see slothfield's headline reading "Roosters sign Rapist", you know because he's a ****.

[bondi-boy]

Some club would sign him, if the NRL doesn't get moralistic all of a sudden and ban him for life.
If the NRL does that he should sue them...pointing out other players with criminal records who have not been banned for life.
Drink driving is a crime, for starters.

The NRL is not full of saints you know.

[bondi-boy]

'Registered sex offender' records should also detail the crime for which convicted, and the sentence imposed.

That's the trouble...'rapist' is bandied about far too easily these days.

Here's a rapist, he'd be a registered sex offender;

http://www.theage.com.au/victoria/ba...619-2ohrb.html


Bayley the multiple rapist and murderer.

Ferguson if convicted...had too much to drink in a niteclub and groped a woman...bad, but absolutely totally different from Bayley...but both would be registered sex offenders.

There should be very detailed gradings on the sex offenders register...pedophiles are on it also.

I'd still sign him, once he'd served any court sentence, and been alcohol rehabilitated.

Slight difference between a sex offender and a drunk driver
