Reynolds at it again.

[47MVEagle]

You've got to be joking, right? This woman has zero credibility and is the one who should be on trial.

But it's still a matter for the courts to decide.

Greenburg has made his decision before the courts have, which is what I think @Shoe1 meant.

 

[Chip and Chase]

So Todd has determined that Reynolds is not guilty ?? isn't he up on the same charges that Dylan was stood down for and eventually found not guilty ??

NRL is a farce

 

[Shoe1]

You've got to be joking, right? This woman has zero credibility and is the one who should be on trial.

I agree she has zero credibility, and should probably be on trial for fraud or something like that. But that is a separate matter to whether an assault occurred or not.

As posted:

While the NRL’s integrity unit is monitoring the court proceedings, the league says at this stage Reynolds is not subject to the controversial ‘no-fault’ stand down policy.

“Josh Reynolds has been upfront and open about his situation,” Greenberg said.

“He proactively advised the Integrity Unit prior to the commencement of the police investigation and I would encourage other players to be as forthcoming.



So..... that's what it takes not to be stood down, just being upfront about it!

Even though I said before that I think Reynolds has been done over (and I rarely if ever say that about cases before they go to the courts)....

it's the inconsistency of king Toddy's rule applications that does the head in. But he did say...consistency is over-rated.

I'm not saying Reynolds should even be stood down, it's the inconsistency...it's the vibe...

 

[The Who]

From the NRL:
The NRL is awaiting extra material surrounding Scott’s case after he was charged with multiple offences on January 27 after an incident with police in Moore Park. A decision on whether he will be stood down will be made early next week after the NRL views the extra material and Greenberg noted that Scott was facing extremely serious allegations.

So, now the NRL is acting as a default CIB. Does the NRL have its own private investigators, snitches, 'insiders', intelligence officers (a definite oxymoron), legal experts . . .?
Here's an idea for you NRL: concentrate on what you remotely know something about!

Todd’s daughters touch footy team have seen all the footage and are awaiting there first training session to hand down there decisions.

The nrl has a whole unit of police that investigate these incidents, including constables Phil Daley, Mal Cochrane, Paul Sironen, Don McKinnon, Craig Young, John Jones, Steve Park

One time John Elias stole sirro’s badge and impersonated a cop but that is another story.

(who else recalls when many players were cops, including half of dee why police?).

Tony Hearn, Pat Jarvis.

Tony Hearn, Pat Jarvis.

In the 80s there were cops in every team and only 2 crims, paul Hayward and John Elias. Now there are no cops and heaps of crims. Or at least “wannabes”.

 

[master blaster]

Seriously, this guy has to go. He doesn't even hide his blatant bias to certain players and teams and yet, no one will have a go at him. And his arrogance as well, its like he doesn't care what other clubs think or people think, he just does as he pleases. Please hurry up and bring back NRL 360 and Kenty

The inconsistency makes me sick!

As someone said (in reference to all the tattoos players have these days):

"More ink than a Mexican prison yard".

Rod Silva. A Mt Druitt boy done good.

When do we get to hear about the Elias story @Shoe1 ?

John Elias impersonated a policeman (using sirro’s badge) in the 80s. He would hang around public toilets in parks and threaten to arrest homosexuals he observed unless they paid him. He posed as an undercover cop. He got caught by real police doing this.

Thank you for sharing (I think).

Back in those days he would have got an immediate promotion doing that wouldn’t he?

Apparently the cops have evidence of her ‘faking four funerals’. Ive heard about the websites that show woman how to fake pregnancies, and miscarriages. But funerals?....that’s some f*cked up shiit right there.

RLPA slams NRL over inconsistent no-fault stand down policy as pair cleared

NRL Chief Executive, Todd Greenberg faced a backlash from the RLPASource: Getty Images
The NRL’s controversial “no-fault stand down” policy has been slammed as unfair and inconsistent by rugby league’s players’ union after Wests Tigers star Josh Reynolds and Penrith Panthers utility Tyrone May were given the all-clear to play in 2020.
May was stood down for the entire 2019 campaign after being charged with filming four sex tapes without consent.

The 23-year-old was convicted last week and handed a good behaviour bond for three years.
He’ll also have to perform 300 hours of community service.

On Friday, the NRL said May could return to playing in round five this year so long as he agrees to attend and complete a “secondary prevention program”. He’ll also be fined 25 per cent of his 2019 salary by the Panthers.
“Tyrone May has effectively served a 12-month suspension from the game, which reflects the seriousness with which the game treats these offences,” NRL chief executive Todd Greenberg said.
The Rugby League Players’ Association (RLPA) said May’s sanctions were “unprecedented” and they would be discussing the issue with the player and his legal representatives.
“May has now been subjected to a 28 NRL game suspension and a fine at the highest end of what can be enforced by clubs under the NRL contract,” RLPA chief executive Ian Prendergast said.

“In our view the use of the no-fault stand down rule has significantly compounded this sanction – which is in no way fair, nor does it provide consistency for our members.”

Reynolds, who has pleaded not guilty to assault occasioning bodily harm charges relating to an alleged domestic violence incident in Sydney last year, will not be subject to the stand-down policy.

The 30-year-old reiterated his innocence outside court following a brief mention of his matter in Sutherland Local Court on Friday.
Greenberg said Reynolds’ openness had played a role in that decision.
“He proactively advised the Integrity Unit prior to the commencement of the police investigation and I would encourage other players to be as forthcoming,” Greenberg said.

“That said the allegation he faces is serious and we will continue to work with and receive updates about his situation from NSW Police.” The NRL has also deferred decisions on Canberra recruit Curtis Scott and Parramatta’s Maika Sivo.
Scott has pleaded not guilty to multiple offences including assault after being arrested on January 27 while Sivo is due back in court on February 17 after being charged with indecent assault following an incident at a Fijian resort on Boxing Day.

“This again highlights the challenges of how the NRL’s no fault stand down policy operates in practice,” Prendergast said.
“The sanctions handed down today further emphasise the need for an agreed independent process to deal with integrity matters, ensuring that the parties involved are treated fairly and in a consistent manner.”
The NRL says it is expected to make a decision on Scott’s playing status early next week, while Sivo’s situation will be analysed after his next court date.

Another case of his arrogance..

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

It's simply a lie to persist in describing these cases as "no-fault" stand down, when Greenberg assesses the case and the evidence (so far as he knows it) and the degree of fault - before any legal trial - and then makes his decision based on what fault he finds. This is a totally different scenario to the automatic stand-down that applies to serious charges such as Debelin and Fainu!
