We don’t know the full story. This could be a false allegation for all we know taking into account all that has happened in this space the past few years. He will probably get stood down for the meantime though. Me personally though don’t make conclusions so easily. Benjamin Mendy? Spent time in jail only to eventually reveal, false allegations. Greenwood? We will never know.. Neymar? Ronaldo? ..
He won't be able to leave Australia until the trial has been held. Being arrested at the Airport seems to indicate he was trying to flee.
That Sri Lankan international cricketer arrested on rape charges in Sydney, it took about 11 months from his arrest in Nov 2022 to trial & acquittal in Sept 2023.

We've all heard the Greenwood audio pal.
With the advances in AI recently though, we can never really be completely 100% sure if it is real though. Those AI voicers are incredibly accurate and on the grain of sand on a beach chance of his partner trying to fabricate it for the fame, money etc she could have recorded his voice for the sample while they were together. If this was repeatedly happening how is that the only small piece of evidence she had?
To be clear I’m not suggesting that they were false allegations or excusing what happened in any way, it’s just with this kind of thing there is the tiniest of chances , you can’t be 100%

Gunathilaka has been on bail during the trial but was unable to play international cricket or return to his hometown of Colombo.
he was arrested as they arrived, if he was trying to flee he'd stay back in Kurguzstan
I thought he was arrested today? They arrived back from Kyrgyzstan last Friday night. The headline above is "Soccer player Angel Torres has just been arrested at Sydney Airport."
So he was arrested last Friday, but official charges only laid today, breaking the story in the media?

The articles I read from the ABC and the Sydney Morning Herald both say he was arrested yesterday (Monday) and it wasn't at the airport

Yep I saw the same - property at Terrigal. So one could assume that he was arrested at home.
I think they must have flown in from South Korea as well. Saw a story that Storm Roux posted the other day when they were in and around Seoul.
They arrived back on Sunday afternoon after a lengthy stop over in South Korea
Didn't see that. Must have rearranged travel back, once it was confirmed the Adealaide game to be rescheduled. Initially it was all about them arriving back, about the same time the Nix were playing the Jets.
Will be a bit of turmoil in Gosford right now, 24 hours before a huge AFC Cup game.

Apparently Kant arrived on Saturday so not exactly sure what CCMs travel agent has been up to.
Btw can we show some tact with the Torres subject, suggesting the situation helps our chances of lifting the Premiers Plate kinda feels gross.
I get that, but it is the reality of the situation - if one of their players got injured tonight, whilst we would hope they have a quick recovery, we wouldn't hide from the fact it helps.
The above is a much worse situation, and I hope justice whichever way it falls happens quickly and fairly, but it does improve our chances.
But in fairness to him, and the victim (alleged) not judgements around character etc should be made.
Yipe it's a horrible situation, and I ain't going to bother reading what some poisonous folks are writing on Twitter. As per RR we are better than that on here. But if you haven't at least had a thought bubble that the Nix's Championship chances are now improved, you truly are a saint.
If CCM win their Asian Championship, do Australian sides get entry into the top tier one next year?
Winning the AFC Cup doesn't add a extra spot. CCM as the highest placed eligible team in the A-League, gain direct entry to the Asian Champions League Elite. Sydney as Australia Cup winners gain direct entry into the Asian Champions League 2.
