Has it been reported anywhere if he has any past convictions? does he have a history of violence?

i actually find the sentence russell packer got justified, its about time the judges got serious with any sort of street violence, again on the weekend another young life was lost from the result of being king hit.
all the do gooders will scream and carry on, but if enough of these thugs are jailed it should send a very clear message to other wannabe tough king hit cowards

Took them long enough ... should have sacked him weeks ago.
They said it was always going to happen (when he was found guilty) but that they had a "process". Sounds like they need some new faster processes.

I really feel sorry for his wife and kid, the club said they are going to support them but I wonder wtf that means. Honestly she should probably just move back to NZ and leave him here.
