Amongst all the mindless drivel on BF there was this post by someone going by the name golddust.
ACTUALLY spoke to someone connected with our great club last night, so take this for what it's worth.
The club WILL stand-by young Troy and offer him all the support it can.
The club WILL NOT delist him if charges are actually laid (and there is some feeling that charges won't result).
His mentor (all players have a mentor) is privately fuming.
And the only reason Troy was available to us at pick 51 was that MOST clubs avoided him like the plague because of his past, but make no mistake, this boy CAN play.
And unrelated ........
The player revolt meeting regarding Wallace DID happen .... and no Jake King WAS NOT the instigator or heavily involved!!!
Enjoy your day!
http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/showpost.php?p=16631596&postcount=166How much truth there is to it ? Your guess is as good as mine but you'd like to think that is the club's attitude.
Also the local pox rag ran a small syndicated piece about the club being aware of the allegations, but also added this at the end,
"Taylors Friend rallied around on his facebook page yesterday where he had listed his status as homesick
'keep your head up troy you are becoming a better man don't doubt yourself. We all love you regardless!' wrote Hayley Webb. Nikitta Dingo-Thorne wrote 'Hey brother just lettn you know we all love you and ...support you, you will always have people trying to bring you down.' "
So the low life scum have gone looking on face book just for more dirt to add to the story that "The NT News yesterday revealed"
The same paper that published this editorial,
http://www.ntnews.com.au/article/2009/11/20/102701_ntnews.htmlnow seem hell bent on screwing him over. As far as I know no other media outlet has run anything more than a short article about troy taylor facing allegations of assault.
no wonder this was in the Chairman's Foreword of The Australian Press Council Annual Report 2009
Regrettably, Press Council research has shown that Australian newspapers rely far too frequently on a single source for a story, and do so more often than is the case in comparable countries.
