You could be a nice guy, but once you join the Roosters it's only a matter of time.
Rugby league is under seige on and off the field late this afternoon with New Zealand international Shaun Kenny-Dowall charged with domestic assault and a couple of glaring errors by match officials marring the afternoon's game in Canberra.
Michael Jennings is using, the it's because I am black excuse.
NRL hero Michael Jennings: ‘I’m only guilty of being black’
NRL star Michael Jennings will claim he, his brother and a friend were all the target of “black profiling” the night he was charged for hindering police and *offensive behaviour.
The Sydney Roosters and NSW centre yesterday pleaded not guilty via his lawyer Paul McGirr at Parramatta Local Court.
The charges related to an incident that allegedly occurred in a Parramatta carpark at about 2.30am on Saturday, June 20.

Maybe it's true? I'll wait for some more facts to be released first. He has a right to defend himself and if he was truly getting targeted maybe a high profile case like this will expose some flaws in the system. Maybe he's just using a bullshit defence. We'll find out with time. I'll take a guess and say there isn't enough evidence anyway, so his defence will be thrown out true or not in which case tough shit to him.
Surely in this day and age, body cameras are a must for police.

But body cameras won't disprove Jennings bullshit story that they targeted him because of black profiling.
It pisses me off that they can actually use this as an excuse for them being arrested etc.
No, but if he's acting like a prick....
And the guy has it all recorded. What a bunch of fucking idiots.
If you're going to be a complete fuckwad, at least be smart enough to not do it while the guy is recording you!
I'm keen to see what the NRL does.
