It seems to me that some of the stuff being reported seems somewhat contradictory. For instance, she was asleep, thought it was Gram and kept saying no. I suppose all of those things could be true. Then again, I'm not sure I want to know the truth. I can't handle the truth.

I'm done. Leave it to the lawyers. Except I know I'll be reading all the articles tomorrow. Stupid brain.

No you haven't disclosed anything apart from the fact that you have accessed, and advised the world that you have accessed, information that you had no right to access.

As far as I'm concerned the OPI should be very interested in your activities. Pretty sad affair when coppers can just look up anything they like about anybody. You are still a disgrace.

Sorry but how do you know he's not entitled/supposed to see the information.
Maybe he's in a position to see it as part of his normal work?

You assume that he's not and then state it as a fact?

It still doesn't excuse his threatening behaviour though.

As far as I can determine,
St Fid responded to Bernard.
Bernard posted his assumption as fact, in a belligerant manner.

Why not get to the beginning of this argument rather than the 'retaliatory strike'?

A simple,
'I don't think you should post that type of information' might surely have been sufficient?

If it is part of his normal work, I can assure you he is not entitled to brag about it on a footy forum. I worked for forty years in an environment where I had information on just about every person in this country. If I had disclosed anything at all, I would have been instantly dismissed and subject to criminal charges. He is a disgrace.

Well, as I have said all along I have not disclosed anything and for you call me a disgrace is worth a warning... :idea:

I am in regular contact with the OPI and I have no reason why they "should be very interested in me specificity"

Now just where are you going with this???

Again just who is the person that has labelled me a disgrace, and just what it has stemmed from.???

You call a poster a disgrace and I am the one that wants answers .
I don't like being called a disgrace, and again why have you called me so??

To be nitpicky
You stated that 'he had no right to access' the information.
Clearly you don't know whether he did or didn't.

You now choose to characterize his comments as 'bragging' when I read them clearly as a 'warning' to people who were making 'uneducated guesses' on what had occured.

You have stated on a public internet forum that you have access to prosecution information that is before the courts at the moment. It is clear from earlier posts that you are a serving member of the Victoria Police Force. In my opinion it is a disgrace that you would post that here. Ergo, you are a disgrace.

My view.

I think St Fid said more than he should in making his point.

St Kilda hung Lovett out to try in no uncertain terms. It was plain the players never wanted him and found the reason to get rid of him. They forced the club's hand.

Only two people really know what happened... the girl and Lovett. Neither come out shining in this sorry story.

Lovett's career is now f***ed, and he has yet to be found guilty.

The words "Beyond a reasonable doubt" will be said many times by his defence counsel.

The media are currently doing such a great job of re-writing history that even Winston Smith would struggle to do any better.
Andrew Lovett is a St Kilda player, he has always been a St Kilda player. Any claims he played for anyone else are double-plus ungood.

I'd say it's because The Age sponsor us, except they're doing it too.

St Fid I must agree with BS. If you do have access to this information the last place you should be mentioning anything about the case is on here. If you dont have access you are just big noting yourself. Either way you shouldnt be saying anything on here. An no amount of yelling at each other makes you right.

Maybe the players were right to never want him... he did have form, and he is very likely a total f-wit. Add to that the events of xmas eve and you may just decide you'd like him as far away as possible from your group too.

"Found the reason to get rid of him"... you've got to be kidding?

And in the immediate aftermath of the event, maybe the players realised at that moment they were the club?... seems to me they handled it pretty well, and Mini made the right call. There is no way in hell he was ever going to play for us after this event, regardless of who was present and what was said.

The least important aspect of this is the damage to Lovett's career... he was on the last chance highway anyway, but if all goes well for him he is free to play where ever he is welcome.

Innocent or guilty Lovett's name has been trashed through the media.
At the same time the name of his accuser and her friend has been suppressed by the courts.
But the need for justice to be seen to be done demands that Lovett's name not be suppressed from reporting.

An interesting example of equality before the law.
If Lovett were to be found innocent would the court order that his accuser's name be equally trashed by the media with at least equal time and equal prominence.

Me thinks not.
The law is a law unto itself.

To be honest, I'm extraordinarily impressed with (reportedly) how all the witness players handled themselves in a horrible situation.

It seems they all showed tremendous maturity. I'm not sure I would have been so level-headed with a noggin full of grog.

As an aside, I'm gobsmacked it's got past committal. Drunk people, confusion, unwitnessed, wildly different accounts...But what do I know...
