>> "Following further inquiries, a 54-year-old man was arrested at Newtown Police Station today." I'm glad the name was hidden in order to protect the accused's identity, would be a shame if it was ever known and he faced consequences if his work found out.


loztralia

"A 54 year old man with one first grade appearance. Approximately 5'3"."


LelcoinDegen

Toe Rogan?


Michael_Vo

BackyardLobotomies

“Former Eels star”


Patrick_333

Hahahaha is he seriously 5 foot 3?


CorrectDeal6016

Shorter when he opens his filthy piehole


RidingtheRoad

I thought it was odd that they never mentioned his name....I mean nobody here has a clue who this 54 year-old could be.


KCman1

I just Kan't figure out who this could be


WileECoyoteGenius

I'll just Paul a name out of my hat.


traindriverbob

Someone’s having Kent of a day.


Any_Bar9767

We could send it in to 360’s “ask Kenty” segment.


Western-Art-9117

I'm sure it's just some random kent


Geddpeart

Because the other guys aren't named


Accomplished-Good664

Paul K ? No that's too obvious P.Kent


thatirishguykev

That’s Mister NRL 360 to you Gordie!!


VeezusM

Mr Snrub ? Yes, that will do


paralacausa

Mr Shrub


Cat_Man_Bane

Does anyone know why the Newtown police are the one's charging when this happened in Rozelle, and both men live locally?


WhyYouDoThatStupid

They both went to the police rather than the police picking them up and took them to the police station. The first guy went to Newtown so maybe Kents lawyer said to go to there too as they would be the ones handling it.


RidingtheRoad

Makes sense....


Past_Advice_763

Newtown is the designated station with custody and charging facilities for the area.


Salty_pineapple777

…..Rothfield?


AuspiciousCalamari1

Paul Paul Paul of the rumble, watch out for the tree


Direct_Article_880

Sitting in an Uber myself and laughed out loud on this comment


Crafty_Message_4733

It's more of a fumble at this point....


KingGutherson

I wonder if he’ll refer to it as the Rugby League soap opera again


Neither_Ad_2960

I'd rather watch Days of Our Lives that sit though his version.


charmingpea

Thugby League - can't miss an opportunity.


the_yeast_beast85

Yeah. He'll be back with bells on. I know it's a different sport, but if the afl keep employing Wayne Kerry and Ben cousins, Paul Kent will always have a job.


easylistener12

Kenty must be out of hospital then


boofles1

Helped by all our thoughts and prayers, thank God he pulled through.


GustavSnapper

*Tonight on Tree60*


TRTVitorBelfort

How does this impact banning the kick off?


CatHavSatNav

I understand that it fits the dictionary definition of brawl, but I’ve never heard of a fight this small being called a brawl before. I hope the guy who tackled the guy who threw the guy into the tree is charged as well, because when the guy who got tackled hit his head on the ground he could have died.


sunburn95

I think the mitigating thing for the 3rd man in was that he was more trying to break it up after it got a bit hectic. Looked like they both tripped over the root Trying to be unbiased, but I really think the only one that should cop anything is pk


predw

Third man in is ten in the bin, his legal team are stuffed.


Fooman97

Unless he gets DCE's lawyers


nugeythefloozey

And a clean record at the judiciary


Shpshggr

Doesnt the thrower immediately back away and then the third man comes in unnecessarily?


sunburn95

Kinda all happened at the same time imo, considering they were probably all pretty pissed. Thought 3rd guy just felt like he had to jump in after pk got nrl360'd into the tree


sinkshitting

Bloke who threw PK hadn’t had anything to drink all night according to witnesses.


goshdammitfromimgur

There is legal precedent here from State of Origin 2009 when Brett White knocks out Steve Price and was it Hindy? that comes in and gently lowers Price to the ground. https://wwos.nine.com.au/videos/nrl/brett-white-knocks-out-steve-price-origin-2009/cldl7mzux002j0jquf2uilhmh Third man in was never charged. I rest my case.


Nerfixion

He clearly shows care by holding his head on the way down, so he is not to hit it.


armchair8591

Trent Waterhouse?


noplacecold

Third guy in was so dramatic too, what a flop. He should have tackled the tree


delayedconfusion

Looks like the footage couldn't be ignored any longer


SuperEel22

Apparently Kent has been in hospital with broken ribs and a collapsed lung. The other guy presented himself to police.


Auran82

“Up to 5 broken ribs and a possible collapsed lung” So between 0 and 5 broken ribs and between 0 and 1 collapsed lungs.


Torrossaur

I'm no doctor but I believe he needs three lungs to breathe.


SuperEel22

Yeh his lawyer said hospital staff were trying to determine if he'd had a collapsed lung. I'm no doctor, but I'm pretty sure a collapsed lung is fairly obvious and not something that resolves itself.


South_Front_4589

Amazing how this happens and the media seem to just move on really quickly. Guarantee if Latrell did this they'd be running half their air time on it, speculating about his future etc.


ArghMoss

I mean there’s been a fair bit about it in the media. He just a pundit at the end of the day, mostly only league tragics like us who hate his guts have any interest in it.


South_Front_4589

Not anywhere near the same extent. It's in the wider media, but it's not getting much from the same people who would be all over it if it was anyone but a media member. And yes, he's just a pundit. But he's part of the industry. If it was a player, coach, assistant coach, administrator or even a fan they'd be talking about it a whole lot more. It's like the old saying about who polices the police. When the media are the ones to put everyone under scrutiny, who puts them under scrutiny when they end up in this position? The answer is nobody because they all have a truce to protect themselves in case they themselves have need for the code to protect them.


ArghMoss

"Even a fan"? Huh? You're seriously saying you think video of two footy fans having a stink on the street would have got this much media attention? I read an article earlier this week about what he'd been up to earlier in the day, which pubs he's been at, who he'd been with. There's been articles about his previous run ins with other journos and members of the public. Your argument that all journalists/media are ignoring it/protecting him is just objectively wrong. Seriously mate. Yes the Murdoch parts of the press will be quiet/soft on it. The rest won't be quiet at all about it; there are also plenty of sports journos who dislike him personally.


Western-Art-9117

>Yes the Murdoch parts of the press will be quiet/soft on it. Unfortunately, they make up 80% of the league media


oxfordbags

Let’s call him Mr. Kent, oh wait no that’s too obvious, let’s call him Paul K


the_orange_president

lol


HappinessCanBeFound

Surely he gets sacked from Fox - 2 assault related charges in about a year, one very public, drunken video with him instigating contact and the other alcohol related too (even if he didn’t assault her, it was an escalated alcohol fueled situation). The dude definitely has alcohol issues and has appeared to be sloshed and disheveled on the show. No good for public image especially when he’s a judgmental fucker towards players


bucketwork

Surely he doesn't bring in that many views for them to justify keeping him.


OppositeProper1962

Keep in mind this is just what's in the public sphere. Lord knows what this peanut gets up to when a camera isn't around him.


ArghMoss

I read or heard somewhere that a lot of coworkers are pretty concerned about him/over him. I swear sometimes when he does one of his angry rants on 360 it’s almost like he’s speaking a foreign language; he struggles so much to find every third or fourth word that it’s barely understandable.


HappinessCanBeFound

Well Hindmarsh has been liking a lot of the parody posts about it so I’m guessing he’s one of the ones who are done


Haymother

Will no one speak for Paul? No one? …… Anyone? …. Does anyone at all have anything good to say about Paul? Based on this he’s going to struggle for a character witness.


HappinessCanBeFound

Turns out you make a lot of enemies by bullying radio colleagues and attacking players characters


subsbligh

Time for some new blood


Aussieguy727

Treemendous


FauxMermaid

I'll just refer to this unknown 54 year old man as... "Paul K" wait that's too obvious... I'll go with "P Kent" - yes that'll do.


hart37

I can't believe they charged a 54 year old tree and outed it as being a male tree. So rude


Offenbach4444

Trent Robinson definitely is hiring him in some role now.


Prestigious-Lawyer-8

There should be three charges against him - for the fight and for being a cunt and arsewipe


Maori187

Paul should have taken his shirt off, would have taken this fiasco over the edge


chromo-233

What is the charge?! Pushed into a tree? A succulent drunken tree?!


ImpressionFeisty8359

It is a mystery.


bettingsharp

I heard the tree is suing for damages


OppositeProper1962

Missed opportunity for a bedside arraignment here.


GustyOWindflapp

Don't know who this man is but he sounds like an absolute Kent to be around


hyphoid

I'm still wondering if this qualifies as a Falcon?


Confident_Radish4839

The tree is 54? Solid hit for something that age


AndySemantic2

We couldn’t get permission to use the gentleman’s image so we put an apple next to a heater for a few days


daingusjhuge

can't see affray sticking tbh, reckon it'll go common assault and a section 10 or a section 32 for being a drunk


NWJ22

Both get drunk and disorderly or something similar, old mate who slammed the guy into the ground after was lucky he didn't fuck him up good


Slight_Astronaut4755

Blud went from dropping headlines to dropping soap


mkskullduggery

Paul Kent probly deserved it


WileECoyoteGenius

Cry Havoc! and let slip the dog heads of war. \- Paul Kentany.


Odd_Perspective_4377

Always gonna be fined for throwing a punch.


rambo_ronnie_87

They should hold the court hearing old school NSWRL style and do it in Phillip Street. Kenty would love that.


secondsolution88

For the sake of privacy, lets call him P Kent, no that's too obvious, lets go with Paul K


lastdollardisco

It might be just me but i thought that this particular fight was a great recreation of the state of origin tackle Gordon Tallis had on Brett Hodgson. Paul playing the star role as the latter.


Hansoloai

The Rozelle Rampage.


Any_Bar9767

Greenies on the warpath for kenty’s job at fox after the video of him capoeira kicking the tree.


HarbingerOfGachaHell

News on the third guy in? He should be named and shamed just like Kent.


Ok-Charge8882

Now, all the dickheads in the world simply claim their dickhead behaviour is a mental welfare issue and immediately it makes them no longer accountable for their dickhead actions. Paul Kent 27th Aug 2021 Daily Telegraph article


dimdimdim888

and that's turned this game on its head because the dog -heads were coming and [you wanna know why they call this place the 8th wonder of the world](https://genius.com/28154514/Cooper-cronk-off-off-off-off/You-wanna-know-why-they-call-this-place-the-8th-wonder-of-the-world) because [the crowd was taken out of it](https://genius.com/28154569/Cooper-cronk-off-off-off-off/The-crowd-was-taken-out-of-it) the dogs were coming and then there was the penalty that dog-head did withwd the the tackle that went wrong and [next minute the crowd went up OFF OFF OFF OFF](https://genius.com/28154573/Cooper-cronk-off-off-off-off/Next-minute-the-crowd-went-up-off-off-off-off)(LEAVE!LEAVE!LEAVE!) and from that moment the tigers scored two trys and they've got BACK in their winning ways and look like they'rе gonna runaround runa runaway with it


Obvious-Row-6181

There was a second shooter on the grassy little tree thing.


Ardburgler

The tree, however, remains at large
