Interestingly enough, when I saw this story's headline posted on the Hun website, I thought it referred to Tiger Woods, so I didn't bother reading it.

It is amazing, yesterday I came into work, sat down at my computer and was prompted by windows tp update my password. Not a word of a lie, I changed my password to Taylor44 because of all the kids we drafted, he was the one that I could not wait to see play in the black and yellow. I could be the jinx :-[
I hope that it all blows over and it is a beat-up but another part of me thinks that this kid has top 15 pick type talent and no other clubs were prepared to take a risk on him. Maybe he plain and simply just isn't a great person? Maybe 15 other clubs sat down with him during the interviews at draft camp and decided that he was trouble.
I hope I am wrong, I hope it is just a case of poor up brining and some immaturity on his behalf because I would love to see him roaming around the foward line for the next ten years
Rosy, not sure about parole, I think I read somewhere he had a community based order because of some previous mischief and he had to get permission to leave the NT to join Richmond's training.
Bit confused by the report. A "street party" by definition is in the street and anybody can walk/use etc a street. Not sure if somebody can make you leave a street (apart from Police). In Victoria you need council approval to close a street to hold a "street party"

There's a reason why players with his ability slip to pick 51.
Now we're seeing it.
Maybe if we hadnt picked him he may not have got picked up at all.

Come onto my property uninvited and expect to be asked to leave and if you dont I'll move you for the safety of my family, make no dobt.
I've read the story in the paper only. I don't know what aspects are true and which aren't.
The truth of the story, I guess, will be discovered by the RFC in due course. (Though I have grave reservations regarding the NT Police actually coming to a fair and true conclusion where indigenous Australians are concerned.)
I also know that 18/19yo boys are proned to make errors of judgement that they later strongly regret.
Clearly Troy has got himself into a disappointing situation.
However, the future of Troy should not taken away on the back of one incident. If it becomes repetitive behaviour ........
He needs to learn not to get himself into such situations again. If that requires a corrective task to help him learn from that error of judgement, so be it.
I hope Troy overcomes this incident and goes onto become a noted Tiger premiership player.

I must say that when I read this article a few things sounded a bit off.
As others have put forward "gate crashed a street party" ?
Right here is where the BS starts IMO.
You dont have a street party & then pick & choose who can be there,its about being social & getting to know
others from your area,meeting new people.
Taylor is then alleged to have slapped a bloke who asked him to leave?
You dont slap a man if you want to cause injury, you get slapped if you say or infer something that is offending.
Gotta love this part:
"Police received reports from the victims and other witnesses that the three were assaulted after asking another group of uninvited guests to leave the area," she said.
The funniest thing about this is that the 3 so called victims( 33, 39, 47) seem to recall the events of the night
quite well, a little strange for early new years day in the Alice for my liking.
Whats worse is others on this site read the article & still thought the worst. ???

End of the day he's an 18 year old thats got into a punch up. The Club drafted him knowing his past, give him abit more time around some positive role models like Bling and others befor we send him packing.
Who know he might be a hard nut on the field as well. Hell we could do with that. ( within the rules of course )

Yes,
Part of the education that the RFC can give him is to be able to identify in the early stages when incidents like this may arise.
According to the story, it was when another group of uninvited guests arrived or started to cause trouble.
A simple alternative may have been for Troy to leave the party and go elsewhere.
Anyway, the facts of the story are yet to be determined.

Haha, you reckon?
The story seems really fishy to me......how a skinny 18 year old could drop three 'grown-ass' men by himself is beyond me.

have to admit when I read that two things ran through my mind:
1) at least he doesn't do the Pies thing of sniping people from behind
2) at least we now have someone taller than a gnome who can handle themselves in the rough stuff
