They implied that was the case. Well certainly that it was taken from Sam's computer.Con Gorozidis wrote:If it comes out that Gilbo TOOK the dal santo picture that opens a whole new can of worms.
THey also said that Dal was unaware it was taken.
Appears multiple breaches of trust by Gilbo

I don't believe for a second that either Roo or dal were unaware the photos were taken. Why Gilbo would keep them after 5 minutes though......?????saintnick12 wrote:They implied that was the case.

Roo said he was getting out of bed when it was taken then asked for it to be deleted immediately. Gilbert would appear to need a little bit of a maturity check.I don't believe for a second that either Roo or dal were unaware the photos were taken.

I've never seen a bad St.Kilda player - that's just how they are.

How about... he syncs his phone to his laptop so that all contacts, notes, photos, emails etc are backed up. It's possible that the photos have been deleted from the phone after syncing but remain on the PC. Maybe SG doesn't know how that stuff works all that well.plugger66 wrote:Well you give me the reason he kept them and also the reason the girl happened to know the photos were there? I again say it seems obvious.
And she's a creepy stalker who goes through his laptop while he has a shower.
Why he took the photos is still beyond me.

I'd be fairly disturbed for different reasons if it turns out that she got the Dal pick from Gilbo's computer...joffaboy wrote:Yup - Sam Gilbert seems to be the fool in this.plugger66 wrote:matrix wrote:why on earth would you keep pics like that on ya lappie

I reckon it is pretty obvious and I will say what maybe some are thinking. To show girls the captains dick when they come back to his place. Bit of a laugh also may impress a girl or two. Surely this girl didnt just guess he had photos like this. He must have showed her and then she downloaded illegally.
Lets hope he realises he has let his captain, his club, and maybe more importantly himself down with the outright embarrassment he has caused to Riewoldt and Dal Santo.
All he can do is apologise in private to the two Nicks and learn a very valuable life lesson.
The future's so bright I've got to wear shades...

It may be hard for some people to believe, but this will die down.
Fact is that Gilbert is in our best 22 and as such he will play and be crucial to us in 2011. What happens after that will depend on many things.
Roo is no fool and is well aware his premiership window is closing. He’s a total professional and will be aware that SG is a vital cog in the Saints tilt for a flag.
If the choice at retirement is this scandal plus a flag, or no scandal and no flag, I think I know what he’d take.

They will work it out on a professional level. Roo was adamant about the fact that they are professionals and will have no problems. He didn't mention their personal friendship (if they even had one), which is now obviously strained. They don't have to be friends. They do have to be able to work together towards the best for the Saints. I've no doubt this will occur

Re: Sam Gilbert & his position in the side
I'm thinking you are Nick Riewoldt. Your level of intimate insight can be held by none other than he.saintnick12 wrote:I believe Roo when he says they will be professional and give everything for the St Kilda football club. No hiding the fact that their personal friendship is completely fractured. How this affects the team going forward remains to be seen. Let's hope Ross' opinion that they will cope with it, move on and keep improving and trying to win the flag is true.Thompson4 wrote:What does this incident mean now for Gilbert.

The jilted young "lady" who seems hellbent on vengeance towards Gilbert and St Kilda at any cost.
Sam's guilty of stupidity at worst and is not going anywhere.
Act like Dal and get a grip people.
Another opportunity awaits!

The young lady who has had such terrible experiences at the hands of AFL players continues to fraternise with them. She has been trying to sell the pictures for ages and couldn't get a bite.
Now for the great moral outrage at having her reputation dragged through the mud- I thought it was her principal that went public and complained to the police- she is publishing them as a payback.
This girl in the same sentence as saying her reputation has been damaged says she has numerous pics of other teams naked.
I can't work out what reputation she wanted to defend.
