It happened years ago, has been dealt with and the figure suggested indicates whatever hgappened wasn't that serious. Big companies pay out $5000 - $10,000 just to make some people go away. I don't know what has happened and I'm willing to wager that 99.9% of ppl on here are guessing as well. A comment was made and offence was taken is all it appears. How bad the comment? Who knows?
Why would Fremantly publicly broadcast it all over the place? If it was our club I wouldn't want us to. Why do ppl automatically assume that by keeping it quiet that the club/AFL are doing the complainant a disservice? Did not one person read the Robert Doyle fiasco? Pretty sure the woman at the centre of that wished she never came fwd. Think about if it was your wife/girlfriend/daughter - not sure I'd want her allegations on the front page all over the country for football nuffies to digest and then turn on her just because it's upset their footy club's image.
I'm staggered this is such big news tbh. Unless Ross has touched her up or what he said was truly repulsive, it appears to be a non event
You are a disgrace Moods and need to be removed from this forum.
You show far too much common sense and reason to be a regular contributor on this site.
What evidence or inside knowledge does anyone In this forum actually have about this incident?
But it doesn't stop the accusations.
If Ross intimidated, made highly inappropriate comments or touched the woman I hoped he gets sacked and charged by the police.
A Payout of a low sum say $10-$20K does not indicate a major issue, all businesses payout employees for many reasons as it is easier to do so than deal with bs Fairwork claims or even falsified Workcover claims.
Interesting that the Lyon haters claim AFL cover up, media not reporting full truth etc when discussing this topic but any claim against a Saints player is a beat up or the media out to get us.
