The Roar 10 Mar - "She lied, breached privacy and stole
http://www.theroar.com.au/2011/03/10/th ... -kilda-sex
Sunday night’s expose saw Kim Duthie tell her side of the story, and in it she revealed to the world that she was, cue gasp, a liar.
Journalist Liz Hayes did her best impersonation of a nodding dog during the interview; her head wobbling as she attempting to keep a serious face while Duthie took us through her motivations.
But for all the gravitas journo Hayes could muster, you couldn’t help but think about what a joke this whole story was.
60 Minutes rolled into A Current Affair territory as it delved into the salacious ins and outs of the schoolgirl’s accusations.
In the wash up, as she told us herself, all of Duthie’s claims, except the fact that the stupidly egocentric Ricky Nixon had slept with her and plied her with drugs and alcohol, proved to be lies.
At this point, Nixon has not told his side of the story but given the situation he is in, and I’m not sure that he ever will.
We will be left to view him as a silly old man, who thought he could outwit a teenager and failed.
Maybe absence will make the heart grow fonder and the reprobate Nixon may return and he and Duthie will be reunited in a New Weekly wedding extravaganza, at which Roberta Williams, in her new career as marriage celebrant, will perform the nuptials.
Now that’s a story!
For months now 17-year-old Duthie has strung along the football world and its associated media circus, convincing people that she had a story to tell.
At no point has she been made accountable for the harmful lies that are, ultimately, the only things she has given birth to in this whole sordid tale.
She lied, breached privacy and stole property from St Kilda footballer Sam Gilbert’s computer, ruining reputations in her wake with little or no remorse.
But all that was okay because she was a teenager taking control of her life and getting back at a massive corporate powerbroker, an organisation which provides more media accreditations than Parliament House.
While footballers were castigated and lampooned for their buffoonery, this young lady was lauded as a new feminist icon.
Now, any young ladies who have concerns about the way they have been treated by a footballer will have to travel in the long shadow cast by Duthie.
Far from being a role model for women, she has made life tougher for them.

Finally a fair and reasoned take on the whole sorry saga.
I'm still trying to figure out what kind of society we live in when publishing embarrasing photos, obtained illegally of friends of your former partner, were seen to be the actions of a feminist warrior.
Ridiculous.

Life is very short and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friends.

She is a sl*t and always will be.
Old enough to repaint, but young enough to sell

In my view Gilbert, the Saints, the AFL and indeed the wider football fraternity should thank 60 minutes for assisting to bring this whole saga to an end. But for the the 60 min story DH, CW and other like minded hacks would have still been pumping this up for all its worth
I say..... Thank you Liz...Thank you 60 Minutes now lets move on...
Notwithstanding, I suspect "that girl" is currently planning her next attention seeking enterprise. I do not believe her claim for one second that she wants to remove herself from the limelight. I strongly suspect she will be back on the scene as soon as she can with her band of opportunist hacks trying to re-spin the tripe and the banging the drum behind her to stir up trouble and draw attention to themselves ..........
