I'll try to summarise..Basically these 2 guys are friends. Every time play basketball at Marsiling Blk 204 court.

Become so serious that this mangkok Devin Lim Teck Bin go and punch his friend damaged his eye socket. End up 4 weeks in jail

Uncle Kumar, from your past

Observations, do you feel that Singapore

Has a lot of those low ses intentional torts like

Assault and battery?

 

[Kumar22]

Got lah...I got see so many 'friendly' football games end up in fighting..
But this is first i heard of it happening in basketball...

But I got see Pinoy and Chinese boys playing getting all heated up. But mainly pushing and shoving, no fisticuffs.

The Pinoys are actually more aggressive in basketball, it's like their national pastime

How come cannot settle out of court???

 

[imxuan]

fighting during sports quite common lol, esp those contact sports.

i always remind them while playing. hello we not getting paid to play, relax la.

 

[Kumar22]

How come cannot settle out of court???

Become VCGH no more VCH.

To settle it must reduce back to VCH and the DPP must agree.

Here the DPP obviously didn't agree and decided to proceed.

Even simple molest, if the DPP decides to exercise his discretion to charge, the matter cannot be compounded.

1st need DPP to agree then next is Judge.

Football don't never escalate to such because if not happy with the tackle, those sole losers will just aim for the ankle and just whack. Kanna a few times, you know they do on purpose one for retaliation.

Once we played with this group of strangers, played very rough and i just called it quit, and after that one sore lose was so rough my friend fell after a tackle and fractured his hand.

Basketball a bit hard to disguise all these dirty moves.

Grab rebound but grab another person head?

That's why although I was a qualified FAS referee, I never did outside games. Because FAS ones, the FA will take action if something untoward happens...
Plus FAS sanctioned matches, the players a bit better standard....

But really stupid to go jail over a friendly game of basketball....

My time we play basketball court soccer...but although rough no violence because will become big issue later on..everybody knows that....

Many years ago I was playing basketball court footy with some Malay guys..suddenly from no where CNB appeared, they all started running all over the place. Was damn funny.

ya we know some of them on supervision and some also got take drugs..but all escaped. Of course later on CNB went to their homes and arrested them for urine tests..

Nowadays youngsters mostly over 1.8m those born after 90s, only those of older gen are much shorter

Marsiling ***** low-SES place, what do you expect. The old Marsiling park was a fav hangout for druggies, all the local residents stay far far away from that park at night.

Now seldom see ginnas play at the courts, want to "enter" and play also cannot find anymore.

Ever since that marlboro tan bragged about his 2010 goal, standard dropped all the way to the drain.
