The article makes the point that police need compelling evidence to lay charges in a situation like this. The fact that charges have been laid, and the nature of the charges should result in De Belin being stood down or him removing himself. What I find disturbing is die hard NRL fans who feel the game must go on regardless of the circumstances. De Belin makes up the face of the Dragons. Not a good look. If he’s not stood down, what does this communicate to young people? There was an incident which De Belin will no doubt say was consensual. Given he has a pregnant fiancee at home brings big question marks over the moral compass of this man.
Stand Jack de Belin down until his case is resolved
