News Dawson Simpson charged with Drink Driving

[Gysenn]

****

Silly, silly boy. Just cost us our Partnership with the TAC, surely?

 

[Beth]

Absolute dickhead.

 

[Willo_]

Considering he had surgery recently as well the club would be really dirty I'd imagine...
I can't go too hard because when I was 25 I was stupid enough to drive home after a few on more than one occasion, happy to admit I was a dickhead for doing it now.. but it's disappointing all the same

 

[Rankin_1925]

Guess he's going to have to change his Mad Monday outfit to an orange jumpsuit.

 

[Bobby_]

Been there done that and learnt from it. You suspect Dawson will do the same.

Wouldn't be too harsh on him, s**t happens, it's those repeat offenders you have to worry about.

 

[Willo_]

it's those repeat offenders you have to worry about.

Whilst this may be the 1st time he's been caught I've heard whispers it's not the 1st time it's happened...

 

[Vdubs]

Poor guy, probably at the lowest ebb of his turbulent career, now this.
Very sobering in preparation for tomorrow!

 

[Turbocat]

How far over? I mean its bad no matter what but .o6 is different to .2

Far worse if there was an incident.

Has to be the last now, doesn't it?

 

[DV2000]

Not much in that, but it could cost him in the long term. If we decide to recruit another ruckman over the off season, then Simpson's spot in the team may be in jeopardy. He didn't have a fantastic year like we all expected him to, and has been hit by injuries yet again. Just one small incident like this could (could) be the tipping point that puts him out of favour in Scotty's mind. Remember kiddies, it's all about reputation!

 

[Willo_]

You'd certainly like to think so wouldn't you

 

[Two Planks]

Might be a good excuse to sack him and recruit a ruckman who can play at least 15 games a season.

 

[you pick one]

According to Balme he'll get 2 weeks.

 

[TomsBulgingDisc]

******* clown!

Unlikely.

TAC being based in Geelong has nothing else to sponsor in the area.

Not a laughing matter but I did crack a wry smile at "sobering".

 

[Pure_Ownage]

While i can understand hes probably not in the best place right now with his body failing him and his career at the crossroads,it is pathetic.

How hard is it to get a cab so you dont kill some innocent person driving drunk?

Or, in his case, a taxi truck.

 

[coylez]

Wheres Biggy_Boy? Surely this is Chris Scott's fault..

 

[Scottland2007]

Club imposed sanction. How about trade him to Melbourne?

 

[Pivo]

The second one is a big, big punishment.

 

[Willo_]

He was double the limit apparently.... hope walking is good for his back cos he won't be driving for a while

You mean the same TAC who don't sack their own staff,including high up management,for DD and other driving offences [i.e repeat speeders] ?

BTW he's a dickhead for drinking while recovering from back surgery.

 

[Biggy_Boy]

This is the culture that Chris Scott is developing at Geelong. A lack of discipline on and off the field.
