When he landed the AFP loaded him into a car and took him from the tarmac to his accommodation.
Did they think there was going to be a lynch mob waiting for him?
Who suggests that?
Who pays for that?
So that crap by Mark Stevens on twitter was legit? I owe him an apology
After the lynching he has copped over the last few days from 6 weeks suspension to a year he had every right to not face the media. Whilst I dont condone what he did.
Can you just imagine what the fella is going thru. Absolutely ripped apart by the media his mental state would be a concern. Yes he made a mistake but to have his character questiuoned is a disgrace and Basil Zemplis last night just showed what a comple ass jockey he is. Simmo i reckon wouldve loved to rip his head off.
Who gives a shit? Too quickly people **** up, monumentally **** up, then turn the victim as people need to be mindful of their feelings.
I'm all for supporting people through tough times but you belt a bloke and smash his jaw and then have the football world question your actions isn't a "tough time".
So how would you know what he is going thru. How do you know what state he is in. He has said he didnt mean to punch him in the face. Everyone makes mistakes and as the eagles have said he will cop whatever is coming to him. There are 2 people here. Yes Brayshaw would be in a horrible state and we all wish him the best but you also have to think ok all this lynching of Gaff by every media person except Wayne Carey wpuld not be doing anyone any good.
The case is already tainted by the media an he will be trialled by media. Christian would be reading everyting about what everyone has said. Gaff doesnt stand a chance. And by the way I thought he would get 3-5 becasue of good record but now after the media have had their say he will get 7
