make is he hasn't got off scott free as was said in some posts
He got as close to getting off scott free as anyone possibly can. His charges were dropped because he was offered diversion.
I'm really unsure how the Police decided this case met the following criteria for diversion:
"Do not minimise violence suffered by the victim. The circumstances of the offending and the victim's views are most important in considering violent offences for diversion."I guess the police also didn't charge him with the threats he made as that would have then been an aggravating factor which should also have ruled him out of receiving diversion.
Yep mate, you misunderstood my saying he hasn't got off scot free. I was simply meaning his reputation is thrashed, and still is by people on the net and many many others are just going on without anyone (and probably a lot of friends) knowing.
It's the same as things like the me too movement, the only people being outed are stars etc, while really it makes absolutely no difference to the Joe Blogg who is/are doing a lot worse! Not defending anyone just pointing out the difference and hypcrocary of a lot of this shit. As I said in post, some young mongrel got home detention for multiple rapes just a few months ago, do you remember his name etc? I certainly don't, and I imagine he will not be villified as someone who is well known and has done lesser things. Mind you this is probably wrong thread for me to say how pissed I get at the double standards a lot seem to. -
Apparently we have a new JC....???

Just more proof about how dumb Dagg is really.

To be fair to Dagg, he doesn't really say Friz is the a "modern-day JK" at all.
He says "“Shannon at six, he is a must,” Dagg told SENZ Mornings.
“We’ve been looking for (and saying), ‘Who’s going to be that Jerome Kaino that comes in and adds that real oomph at the six position,’ and he is our guy.
“He does all the hard work, he carries extremely well, he defends really (well and) he’s another lineout option; he’s a big man so he’s a genuine lineout option there for Sammy Whitelock and Scotty Barrett.”
It's not a completely outrageous comment.

Wow, a headline that doesn’t actually match what is in a quote. Surely not.

He's still dead wrong on all counts
-
Do we have the match stats available?
It didn't feel, watching live, that his workrate was particularly outstanding. And it wasn't like he was significantly bending the line with or without the ball, either.
So not sure what Dagg is talking about.

Forget stats, that’s so early 2000s and Eddie Jonesy. It’s just about the vibe now and how many internet forum supporters you have (or don’t have).

Well, he's not really is he?
Let's break it down:
-
We’ve been looking for [someone to] come in and adds that real oomph at the six position,’ - not sure he adds oomph, but he is certainly a tight power 6 rather than an athletic one
-
“He does all the hard work" - true
-
"he carries extremely well" - well he carries straight and hard at least, and he does so repeatedly
-
"he defends really well" - I agree with this
-
"he’s another lineout option" - I agree with this too
He's hardly the 2nd coming of JK, but he has been solid and is a good foil for Savea who plays a looser 8 role than others might

Dagg must have had too many Tui's for breakfast before tuning in.

Probably would have created less of a stir on the Fern if he's not mentioned the great man's name in the same sentence as Frizell

I think you've missed the salient point that shows Dagg's proof positive that you can be a good footy player and still a pork pie short of a picnic.
“We’ve been looking for (and saying), ‘Who’s going to be that Jerome Kaino that comes in and adds that real oomph at the six position,’ and he is our guy.
Certainly drawing a favourable comparison with Kaino. Now admittedly JK struggled when he first came into the AB's but Frizell is in his 5th season with the side and apart from a coupole of outlier performances has shown 5/8 of fuck all.

Looking from another Angle, Dagg did play with Kanio in the AB's just maybe he is better judge than given credit for.
Critics have not had that advantage.
And could Dagg be repeating what he hears out of the AB camp as he is great mates with a lot of the AB's in the camp as he hangs out with a lot of them.Coming from another angle than just calling Dagg an idiot maybe he know more than some people. -
