As Alan Jones spent Friday celebrating with former players from The King’s School rugby team he coached to a premiership victory 50 years ago, more men have come forward with fresh allegations that the controversial broadcaster indecently assaulted or groped them., first as a teacher and later as the country’s top-rating radio broadcaster, to prey on a number of young men, indecently assaulting them, groping or inappropriately touching them without their consent.
The premiership-winning Kings School rugby side in 1974. Coach Alan Jones is seated middle front row, to his left is captain Anto White. Scott Walker is on the far right of the middle row. The allegations of Jones’ cruelty extended to the classroom, where he gave the gifted English student zero out of 50 in one of his final exams because, Jones claimed at the time, Walker’s handwriting was illegible.Before his rebellion against Jones, Walker alleged Jones would be in the bathroom while the schoolboy showered and would often drive Walker home.there were times when his teacher would pull over in a deserted car park and would “moon up at you … ‘You do know how much you mean to me’.
“I had no reason to doubt him,” the man said of his teacher. It was only with the perspective of adulthood he had reason to be troubled by what had occurred, he said. “If you told someone today that a boarding school master was driving home a 15-year-old boy and parking under a tree for a motivational chat, people would say it’s unprofessional conduct … he never physically touched me or anything like that, but I consider it emotional abuse to a severe degree. I’d call it emotional grooming that was unfulfilled from a physical point of view,” Byth alleges.
It struck the young man that the driver must’ve witnessed this scenario previously. “I remember thinking, ‘Well, maybe it wasn’t his first rodeo’.” He recalls Jones saying, “Oh, this is a nice shirt” as the top-rating radio man rubbed his new Hugo Boss shirt with his fingers.
