It's just about the only time Josh Reynolds has felt ashamed of where he comes from.
Moments before the Bulldogs took to the streets of Lakemba on Tuesday to march in support of stopping violence against women, CEO Raelene Castle sat the team down at its Belmore base and unleashed a statistic that hit Reynolds harder than any hitman in the league possibly could.
"She was saying that Bankstown has the highest rate of domestic violence against women in the whole of New South Wales. That's pretty bad," Reynolds told NRL.com.
"That hit me because I live in this area. I have for ages. It got me thinking – it might not happen to you or your family, but it could be happening to one of your mates or your aunty. It's a very serious thing and we've got to sit back and realise that it's not on."
