Harley Bennell pictured cutting lines of speed - Courier Mail

[thegerman]

I see a big difference. A story can be forgotten. A picture never goes away. That's how I see it at least.

How's that Essendon 34 story, not going anywhere?

 

[MC Extra Dollop]

We should just shoot everyone who has ever taken an illegal drug

I wonder which club's players Dale Lewis had the most experience of back in the day, when he estimated that 75% of players in the AFL had used drugs.

How's your lack of comprehension going? Not going anywhere? Ah well. Stick at it and you'll get there.

A lot of us scoffed at him as well. He was probably 10 years ahead of everyone

 

[Whit3y]

lets get the police involved

taking drugs is a crime

 

[base615]

That's bullshit, how do they know it's speed? It could easily be cocaine.

I once saw a guy getting turfed out of a club in London pleading with the bouncer "Come on mate, it wasn't Coke, it was only Ketamine"

Scenes I’d like to see

Harley Bennell and s group of media students release photos of them setting up the “stunt”. Smiles all round as they tip some bi-carb of soda onto the table and rack up some convincing looking lines of “bogan dust”

The <Murdoch press hacks and the various moralising media windbags slink back under the stairs

 

[midorigreenwood]

Looks like a prime candidate to join nic nat's prayer group at west coast.

 

[Altum Volantes]

Report the story. Publishing the pictures is a disgrace.

Seriously?

It's reasonably well established that a picture is worth a thousand words. In these days of the rolling news feed it's probably worth 10,000.

Can't blame the media for publishing the photos. Blame the idiot in them.

 

[SunshineBoy]

He has to be traded. Huge talent but he can't stay at the Suns. He might be able to restart his career at a club that already has a really strong culture.

Essendon....

I'm racking my brains at potential scenes you would like to see.

 

[Runk]

Dude requires help ASAP. Players associateion should be all over this like a rash. Herald Sun should be ashamed of themselves. The potential outcomes for this young man could be perilous as a result. Kevin Egan was 100% right.

 

[SherbertLemon]

* the sh*tstain who leaked that photo - absolute rat. I'm sure many AFL players take recreational drugs.

* the media who put this front page with no regard for any ethical boundaries.

and lastly bless all you guys for being the great blokes you are.

[Defacto]

Surprised how much people lay this at the feet of Gazzas poor leadership but have completely forgotten about Campbell brown

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

I can't believe anyone is actually surprised that a 19 year old with a lot of disposable income was doing drugs...

My question is why the GC leadership group, including GAJ, aren't being scrutinised through all of this? I can't help but think that if it was any other captain whose team had 12 players named as recreational drug users they'd be copping a lot more flak.

 

[Keys]

So you've missed his club sanctions for not following team booze bans and heading out partying?

And given the names dobbed in by K Hunt, under what illusion would you be that this has not been an ongoing issue with Bennell up to today?

Apart from the fact that drugs are also illegal, imported by low life scum who prey on the metally weak and ruin peoples lives so being attached to that in any way\shape\form should attach a stigma to the person for life.

Look at Cousins, his mate Mainwaring, the ongoing bikie connections plaguing Dustin Martins career etc.
ALL will forever wear the stigma of ongoing issues in this area.

Fire up Syd. Let the moral outrage flow

Ah it's not a crime mate

Deleting it makes me look crazy!

 

[RICHOLEGEND12]

There's probably 11 players at every club doing recreational drugs. You've got newspapers, commentators, media personalities all scorning drug use, when no doubt half of them are probably doing lines on the weekends themselves. Drug use is majorly prevalent in our society. It's rarer these days to meet an 18-24 year old that doesn't use some form of recreational drug rather than someone who does. And I don't hang out in the seedy underside of Melbourne!

Sorry, too late

 

[van peebles]

UDL's are pissweak Harley

1.He's a decent guy, Let's not pretend this isnt something quite a few AFL players do, However what poor timing

2.Who took that picture? would be pretty filthy at them if i was Harley

That is just wrong.


Not the fact he's doing speed, but the betrayal of him by the people he was with to leak that photo.

Wonder which little piece of dirt leaked the picture for money?

Your in a motel room with drug taking low life scumbag filth.
And are wondering who took the picture?

 

[kreuze_missile]

Spoiled little s**t, all the potential in the world but is more interested in ******* it up with drugs and alcohol.

I hope police get involved and find some way to make him do 6 months behind bars. Kid needs a serious wake up call.

Holy s**t, quell your outrage. You're kidding yourself if you think you don't associate with any "drug taking low life scumbag filth".

6 months for doing some lines of speed? Jesus Christ.
