Man of Kent Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 Wrong'un... Said at the time that Peggy Norman could be banned for the rest of the season for that. TO are gone, sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave T Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 As always, my position on this is that it is sexual assault and players shouldn't be allowed to play at this level doing that. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayCee Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 It made the front page of the BBC sports page. Not often for a RL story. I wonder what system they use for deciding what goes straight to the front page. I assume apart from the popularity of the sport, how controversial it is. My blog: https://rugbyl.blogspot.co.nz/ It takes wisdom to know when a discussion has run its course. It takes reasonableness to end that discussion.

JohnM Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 7 hours ago, kiggy said: Don't worry I won't. Does anyone read the Sc*m anymore? Yes, people, millions of them, do still read the Sun. The Sun's latest reported daily circulation was 1.2 million copies, making the Sun possibly still the biggest selling print paper, though the Mail may well have overtaken the Sun by now. Circulation of print titles is dropping rapidly by between roughly 10 and 20 percent a year, though the Mail is falling at a slower rate than the Sun. Readership is usually higher than circulation and that applies to the Sun just as much as to any other paper. For comparisons, the Daily Mirror circulation is around 300, 000, around one quarter of the Sun's figures. However, since the Sun, along with The Guardian, only reveals its stats to advertisers, the very latest figures for the Sun and the Guardian may be incorrect. So yes, people do still read the Sun.

Just Browny Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 The risk/reward for doing this is so our of whack you would have to think the people doing it are a slice short of a full loaf. Slightly irritating your opponent for a few minutes versus an 8+ game ban and being thought of as a dirty ####. 1 I can confirm 30+ less sales for Scotland vs Italy at Workington, after this afternoons test purchase for the Tonga match, £7.50 is extremely reasonable, however a £2.50 'delivery' fee for a walk in purchase is beyond taking the mickey, good luck with that, it's cheaper on the telly.

David Shepherd Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 I’m with Dave T on this. It’s sexual assault. It really should be a police matter, far too serious to be dealt with in house. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnM Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 It's almost beyond belief that anyone would do such a thing deliberately. I saw the incident on TV and thought to myself...did he really do that? What on earth did he think he was doing? Clearly not thinking. Wonder what his defence was? Is he going to appeal? “Every single person is a fool, insane, a failure, or a bad person to at least ten people.” ― Mokokoma Mokhonoana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also hoping the epithet 'Just Browny' doesn't indicate you have 'inside' knowledge on this 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
