How offensive
The Australian press and public were all over Stokes for what he did, yet when one of their own commits what is in my eyes the scummiest crime in the world the outcry is far less
You may be good at sport but your morals are in the gutter
Personally i havent followed the Hayne incident at all .... just going by your posts and the replies to them what i am getting from that is - stokes hasn't been charged , but there is evidence of him doing something ( and the possibility of a crime being committed was high enough for a police investigation to take place ) .
Hayne has had someone make an accusation against him ( as skip1973 said 'he said/she said' scenario ) , and there has been no other evidence /police investigation etc .
I think others are not saying that rape is a lesser crime than assault /g.b.h etc - I'm pretty sure no one here would suggest otherwise. Obviously , rape is far more insidious. If something more comes of this then people here , and the oz media, would drag hayne through the coals ( case in point : mathew johns, a former rugby league player and tv personality, a number of years ago was involved in an incident which resulted in him losing his job , reputation, popularity amongst the public etc ....even though , from memory , no charges were laid ).
