Smells like troll season. Who are you Darryl Wakelin? Get over it and understand that it is a contact sport and occasionally things happen. I suspect you're obviously a Port supporter, so why don't you go and find David Granger and John Cahill and ask them about premeditated acts of violence on the field. D...head:p :o

I seen him play for Sollys in his early days and he used to love going into packs knees first.
But that aspect wasnt seen in his AFL career that I recall.
Thug ? No
Hard? Yes
The incident with Wakelin was not without regret.
Weve all regretted snap decisions in hindsight.

spot on Topjars. A hard nut, but not a thug.
besides, we don't care what anyone else thinks - he is a legend of our club.

So now Port Power supporters are spaeking for "the rest of the league"???
Big Al, you are not just crazy, you are a loser.

While I don't agree, the water cooler talk in Melbourne centres on the latter day incidents involving Wakelin and the Irishman. A legitimate question.

Only if you drink Melbournes water...I hate Fosters;)
Mark Bickley =
AFL premiership captain. (twice)
Champion player.
Just couldn't stand Papsies running around on the loose.
In other words Big Al = GET OVER IT !!!!

good father and good role model - yeh right - an absolute ****er...
Heard he took a liking to not one but two female news readers, which led to the breakup of his marriage... A real good family man !!!
Must be quiet on the Pork board.

Heard you were almost a human being and that was wrong too.

Yeh good one mate - facts are facts mate - he cheated on his wife, and that makes him an average person in my book....
Thats the way he played his footy too...

And of course Arsene Wenger you have two AFL premiership medallions as a captain of your club at home on your wall of fame too dont you?????
The way he played footy was exactly what your mob needed during their failed finals campaigns.
Get back to your slums at Alberton and unwrap the tin foil from your easter egg cups and start eating them. They're worth nothing mate and until your club gets one or two of the real ones I think you should think about abusing your own players rather than the successful opposition ones.

Hey Crowboy, you miss the point.
Im not questioning the success Mark Bickley has had, but rather the character of the bloke. He obviousley is not as COMMITTED as you think he is... A family is far more important than any AFL medal, theres more to life than footy, and Mark has completely screwed that up.
I have no problems with his success as the skipper of the Adelaide Footy Club, good on him and it was a great achievement but I just think he is an average bloke with little respect. I have met the guy, and he is an arrogant prick. He cant read the news, he cant keep his pesh in his pants, and his loyalty to the AFC was obviousley out of character...

That's one thing that really really really $h1t$ me about the fishbowl that is Adelaide.
How many talented hardworking intelligent Journalism students (the TER is currently higher than Medicine) do we have in this state who have potentially been deprived of a position at Channel 9 simply because Mark Bickley is Mark Bickley?
If he was Joe Public in off the street he wouldn't have passed a screen test.

If thats the case then what do you think of Peter Burgoyne??????

Sometimes it makes you wonder why should someone even bother enroling in Journalism when its obviously clear that a well known sporting personality will get the job before you do even tho they are hopeless at it.
