Message: [QUOTE="Cult, post: 3529522, member: 8468"] Pushing someone out of the way with your hand is not accidental though. Bumping into them might be but there's a literal act of pushing that can not be disputed. Intent to injure might lessen the case, but even so, accidents don't make things perfectly legal. And swearing in public is illegal in Australia. But we have somehow created this argument. Can you swear at your mate in public? Can you push, using your hands, a police officer? Easy to see which one should cop a worse punishment, even if they might not need a punishment at all. In Walsh's case, there is still 100% proof that the police officer was pushed and no proof that you swore at the police officer. The charge states contrary conduct, sure. But three weeks for contrary conduct isn't ok either. Despite the charge name, he was only suspended for swearing at the ref in which there was zero proof. He was asked to travel to Sydney and argue his case in an unwinnable case because the NRL already had their mind made up. [/QUOTE]
