I can't believe that.
If the world has any decency left, journalists and the footy public will queuing up to apologise to the St. Kilda Football Club.
I'm in a bit of shock.
And really, if you watched that as a nuetral observer, I'd reckon you'd be scratching your head as to what the anlge of the story was.
It started out like it was going to pain the girl as a victim - then in the end it left her looking like nothing more than a upset teenager who was huffy that things didn't work out as she'd hoped.
It actually made the AFL, the Saints and the players involved out to be the victims in the whole thing.
And as for Nixon......well, he's cactus.

That was the whole point of the exercise. If you presume that the media are interested in facts then you are gullible. This has been a systematic attack on the club, and anyone with a link to the club.SainterK wrote:
I feel angry at myself that I quietly questioned Gilbert, wondered if he had isolated and rejected a girl who claimed to carry his child. All along he told the truth, she lied about her age, pursued him, and he probably dumped her when he found out her lies.
And she aint the brains of the operation.

And, he was right when he said that taking legal action was the ONLY thing that will ever stop this person. How much did Ch 9 pay her? !!fingers wrote:He is.Eastern wrote:What that proved to me;

Why the reports of senior officials being so displeased?

Unless you see and hear that coming from the persons mouth then it's likely to be utter bulls***.SainterK wrote:

Believe what they actually say, not what is reported.

Not sure about the accuracy of those reports. I'm sure the club must have been aware of the pregnancy lies, Caro did. Some may have checked Ross at the time because there was a lot of Media Heat on the club.SainterK wrote:So why was the club angry with Levin then, and his tough stance?

How much did we pay for her accomodation? It was money down the drain as far as I'm concerned after watching that !!

The one thing that rang true was when she said that she and Ricky Nixon were a similar type of person. I can only judge on the basis of their media performance, but it would seem to ring true.
Alas, this will be another version of the Never Ending Story.

The one fact that should have been collaborated, what, 18 months ago?SainterK wrote:She was never pregnant![]()
![]()
So the motive is that she was dumped![]()
I am shocked.
And that could well have stopped this frightful leech from taking a single breath of 'public' air.
Meanwhile lives are screwed over left, right and centre.
Seriously, it is a shameful media age we live in. Horrifyingly putrid.
What happened to accountability? Went the way of spelling, I'm guessing...

"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'
That makes no sense, they changed for a more soft reproach, because she lied?Eastern wrote:Not sure about the accuracy of those reports.

The press and the footy world wanted a story. They sniffed one and chased it.
The further it went, the clearer it became that there was no story.
The club's initial stance gave the 'story' legs and the footy world the ammo they needed to press on with the 'nasty Saints vs. poor little girl' story.
The second approach took the wind out of it's sails.
The target audience doesn't care about facts. Whether or not the club or players was right was totally irrelevant (sadly).
