Re: The Saints are at it again, it seems...

A 22 and a 24 year old with a girl between 17-19 who told them she was 18?

No case to answer, move along, these aren't the droids you're looking for.

End of story.

Its not that clear DFA4PM. The footballers are in a position of power (just like teachers are). We all know what happens to teachers that sleep with their students.
The players went to a high school footy clinic in which the girl attended.
When they met in Sydney, the players claim the girl said she was 19yo and do not remember her from the school footy clinic.
If it can be proven that the players do remember the girl from the school, they are in some serious trouble.

The whispers suggest a Collingwood player might also be involved.

There are ways to prove what a person can or can't remember- but I've forgotten them.

With mobile phones & facebook to name a few, its easy to track text messages or any type of message by time and by date.

Re: The Saints are at it again, it seems...

Looking at it from a purely financial (and not emotional) view:

Single parent's pension of just over $600 pf = $15,600.
Rent assistance of about $130 pf = $3,380.
Maximum child support income amount is $147,135, if the player earns more than that then child support would be about $16.5k

All adds up to nearly $35,500, tax free. Without leaving the couch. (I'm not sure how the child support affects the pension & RA though). This is all very rough estimates.

If I was a young woman, I'd consider it too. This without the baby bonus.

I'm not condoning what the Saints players did, if it comes out they've done the wrong thing, but at the end of the day, this young woman needs to take responsibility too.

I feel sorry for the kid. Awful circumstances to come into the world.

They will have a case to answer if they got her details while conducting the clinic at her school.

If it can be proven that the players do remember the girl from the school, they are in some serious trouble.

True and true.

Well, that settles it.

Heard tonight that she is 16...not sure if that's fact, but that was on the telly.

As mjp says Andrew Lovett wil be more than an interested observer, particularly his legal team if one or two players are charged.

I just hope the 3rd player isn't one of ours.

I think everyone knows who the players are now, but anyways

If they did meet at a school clinic, you can be as sure as anything that someone would have taken a photo of it.

Looking at it from a purely financial (and not emotional) view:

Is the child support rate still 18% of yoru gross slaary above a threshhold of $35k?

She wont struggle like many other single mothers do - provided she proceeds with the paternity test after the baby is born.

No, the rules have changed and the formula takes lots of things into account. 18% is a good rough guide though. I have three myself, and pay a small fortune… They're worth it though, all solid hardcore Bulldog pups…

As soon as the story broke I knew it was not Kosi, he could not hit the target.
