And given what we know, I don't believe how they can put more weight in the testimony of an umpire than the testimony of a player.
I think they should have, in the absence of any evidence, just warned both parties and moved on from there.
I think that's a pretty balanced take, Albert.
Appreciate you jumping on.
Let's go to Adrian in South Morang.
Welcome, Adrian.
How are you going, Tommy?
Well, thanks.
How are you?
Yeah, very well.
Yeah, just want to weigh in on the Butters situation.
Because the evidence, unless there was other evidence that, you know, wasn't broadcast to the public, you know, I tried to slow down the Fox footy snippet and the Channel 7 snippet on, you know, Instagram and I tried to slow it down on my computer and
I just couldn't make out anything that was said because the crowd noise overtook it.
I don't know if there's another snippet that we, the public, the fans haven't heard, but
I thought if you're not proven guilty, you're innocent, if that makes sense.
Yeah, and I hear you, Adrian.
I think with these ones, and a barrister actually texted in yesterday, in the absence of evidence, often the tribunal or juries can make assessments on the balance of probability, and they clearly felt as if, in this case, the Nick Foote...
or Nick Foote's truth and reality was more convincing than that of Zach Butters and Ollie Wines.
And you can make your own assessment about that.
Appreciate you jumping on, Adrian.
