Lover in AFL sex scandal hits back

A RANDY AFL player’s lover has hit out at his “vindictive” ex-girlfriend while describing the behaviour of the footballer at the centre of the scandal as “degrading”.

The lover’s personal details were dumped online as the player’s raunchy and cheating texts were made public.

The woman, who says she didn’t know the player was in a relationship during their shortlived affair, said her phone had been inundated with crude texts, calls and voicemails with some calling her “thirsty”, “ho”, “hooker” and “prostitute” since the texts surfaced on social media.

“I have felt physically ill when I have looked at my phone in the last 36 hours and have seen the calls, messages, voicemails,” she said.

“I am gripped with fear that colleagues and clients may recognise my number as being associated with this.”

The woman who found herself caught up in the latest footy scandal said she felt for the player’s ex-girlfriend, but that she had taken things a step too far.

“I am somewhat empathetic toward (her) situation, not that I even knew of her existence during my encounters with him,” she said. “I will not have my character slandered in the court of public opinion, as part of her vindictive game to get back at him.”

Port Adelaide and the AFL are staying tight-lipped about the case, with the club even questioning the authenticity of the texts. There were about 20 screenshots of racy text messages in the player’s iCloud.

It is believed his angry exgirlfriend unleashed them.

The screengrabs reveal several sexually charged text messages about affairs, strippers, sex catch-ups with at least four women and allusions to illicit drug-taking.
