N.Z Rugby is Homophobic? You gotta be kidding me!

It’s early days on this 2^nd alleged Cape Town incident The Crusaders players were involved-in over two weekends.

That’s right, the holy-than-though rugby franchise with a culture 2^nd to none.

Two incidents in two weekends. 

Good going, even by N.Z Rugby standards. 

The security footage from McDonalds that night will prove or disprove whether this"physically intimidating" behaviour occurred as stated.

Or it’s just a selfie gone wrong?

If it’s the former, All Black George Bridge’s World Cup may be over before he puts his boots on.

It’s also nice to see how much support there is for the potential victim of the alleged incident.

N.Z Rugby fans have peppered his Instagram page with abuse!

That will hearten his resolve one thinks. 

Boorish Drunken Behaviour from Crusaders & All Black player Richie Mo'unga in S.A

Boy oh boy, what a memorable tour The Crusaders have had to The Republic of S.A.

Read, what the local media terms as ‘Fresh Allegations’.  

Inappropriate touching is a euphemistic term for groping.   

Spitting beer at people?

Animalistic. 

Surely, this can’t be a player from the rugby franchise which considers itself to have a sporting culture above even The Vatican’s Sunday Soccer team.

 "I'm really sorry for that I'm not aware that I did that. Obviously was intoxicated and should've gone home long before that stage, I'm sorry to you and your friends and want to assure you I don't condone that behaviour and am sorry about that"  

Now, is this the reply of someone facing a false allegation, simple case of mistaken identity? 

N.Z Rugby players and management have made understatements like this into an art form.

They have the benefit of heaps of experience, I guess.   

Should I mention that Richie Mo'unga is also an All Black?

Or, is that just taken as a given?  

Here's a suggestion for the sport.

Why not instigate a Rugby Respect and Inclusion project? 

French Court hears how 45 Test All Black Physically & Mentally Abused his wife

Evidently all Kiwi’s want their sons to grow-up to be an All Black in the mold of Carl Hayman.

They breed them tough in Otago. 

See look. 

Who wouldn’t want to have a son like him, eh?

Go weak at the knees at the thought of your daughter marrying a bloke like 'Hard-Man Haymam'?  

Hell, if you play it right you could get The New Zealand Women’s Weekly to pay you ‘an undisclosed amount’ for the wedding day photos.

They can do wonders these-days disguising bruises.

N.Z Rugby grants violent scum-bag a reprieve

Is N.Z Rugby that desperate to bolster it’s ever decreasing numbers; with a bloke that’s assaulted four innocent strangers out celebrating a birthday, whilst pissed to the eyeballs? 

Half of the victim’s females.

Elevate him to a National Development Squad? 

Apparently so!  

Losi Filipo is rehabilitated. 

He indicates trying not to say ‘like fuck’ repeatedly. 

MSM in N.Z aren’t going to cut-off one of their main sources of click bait and fake news though.

 

These cuckolds aren't going to use a pejorative to describe Filipo any stronger than 'controversial'.

Journalists need to call-out this outrage to decency.

 

Be brave.

 

Suggest the bleeding obvious. 

That is, if it was any other sport, in any other country. 

Violent scum like Filipo would be tarnished goods.

Cut loose. 

Further this ‘forgive and forget’ decision brutally displays N.Z Rugby's respect and inclusion programme leader Nicki Nicol, as is little more than a quisling. 

A disgrace. 

The judge at the time described Filipo’s stomping as "a chilling act of violence that could easily have led to his death". 

With Nichols job description, how is it even possible to defend anyone that punches a woman in the throat?  

 

Be on the same pay roll?  

Part of the same team? 

Shame on her lack of moral fortitude.  

 

 

Former Counties Manukau Lock Caught Grooming U.S based Teen

The papers have dubbed former Counties Manukau Lock, Gavin Giles, ‘a predator’.  

Giles, who was also the former coach of Papakura Premier team was caught sending indecent images to a young girl in Texas. 

Judge Sharp describes Giles conduct becoming "more and more pernicious as time went on.”  

"We all want rugby to be more respectful and inclusive, and the (Respect & Responsibility) Report has given us the impetus and momentum. In another 12 months we’ll be even further along on this journey." New Zealand Rugby Chief Operating Officer Nicki Nicol (2017)

“But I’m A Rugby Player” Legal Defence Ploy Goes Mainstream

When collared and placed in front of a judge the standard ‘jail card issued’ by professional rugby players, is the one along the lines “It’ll harm my future overseas career prospects if I’m convicted”   

One read of this blog will see this mitigation is an almost guaranteed winner in any N.Z Court. 

Only now, it appears you no longer need to be a top player in New Zealand to also issue similar claims, that a conviction will curtail your sporting future.  

You only need to ‘dream’ you’ll one-day play Super Rugby or for The All Blacks & you can present this as a factor for the judge to take-into account come sentencing.  

Even, when it involves the serious charge of punching another man unconscious. 

Enter stage left Kings High Old Boy, Pesajon Tili.

 Thankfully the Police and Judge saw through Tili’s defence ploy.

Regan King Con All Black

The BBC Wales is reporting ex All Black Regan King owes five women and two men, money. 

The complainants come from Wales, Australia and New Zealand. 

Money he allegedly duped out of them with bull-shit stories, like his divorce proceedings were frozen.  

“Look at me I’m an ex All Black and an elite professional rugby player” 

Who likes to gamble.

Apparently. 

Well it’s more than apparently. 

Seven people with the same claims can’t all be wrong.

 

Kings lawyers have yet to sue all the media outlets running the same story-line. 

 

"Woe is me, lend me money and I'll pay you back"   

 

Including the N.Z Herald.

 

Nor for that matter launched proceedings against his victims for defamation. 

 

Regan King Con.
