Walker cleared to play.

Geeze. If rugby league did have a strict No Dickheads policy we'd be down to a three-team comp.

Broncos, Storm and Roosters.

Remember NRL - a fish rots from the head down

I'm still hopeful but it shouldn't come as any surprise if he's done and dusted really. At the moment it's not looking to pretty and a guilty verdict is high on the cards .

 

[Ranga]

It will be interesting to see if he takes the stand and gives his version of events.

 

[The Wheel]

How many defense witnesses are there?

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

I heard today the Dragons are getting a $600k Salary Cap compensation for De Bellin, wonder how we’ll be treated should Walker get outed.

 

[The Wheel]

Also it doesn’t sound that it will be over today with 13 crown witnesses, I suspect an adjournment and another few weeks/months wait.

I think at this point the verdict will be irrelevant. The media have enough ammo to force the club/NRL's hand on this:
Neighbour & witness in Dylan Walker hearing tells a court "I saw him yank her ponytail very hard. I saw her fall to the ground."

I hope Des started looking for replacements when this 1st happened.

How many defense witnesses are there?

Five police witnesses and eight for the defence

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

How many defense witnesses are there?

5 were suggested on the Fox Sports story

 

[Rodo]

Not looking good for Walker.

 

[EOL now nesting on the GC]

So if he is guilty of DV where does that leave him? Custodial probably not? Suspended high probability? Sacked and banned from the game?

Walker would be sacked, if found guilty, so we get the cash back anyway... The compensation is for a player stood down pending his court case/hearing.

 

[mickqld]

I expect if he's guilty and gets punted that we'll miss out on the NRL compensation clause that Greenturd is about to enact. I'm sure he's been holding off until after this case is heard.

Missed out on Jennings!!

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Cheyse Blair is a possible option I guess!!

Walkers contract is terminated and we have that space in the cap reinstated. Dragons are getting compensation to stand De Belin down until the case is determined.

I'm sure you'll remember Mark that when Blair played for Manly he was a Forum whipping boy. Probably unfairly, but my opinion of him is a solid player without the speed we desperately lacked last season.

FMD if we start to ban players for pulling their partners hair ....... bad thing to do ... but seriousy!!!
