Non-Lions Footy Discussion

Could we see the re-emergence of Carl-tank today. How the bottom three fare against each other over the next few months and the relative % attributed from shellackings should determine who gets the spoon.

 

[Lace Out]

Suns are good value today.

If I hear Stringer referred to as the package again it's going to get ugly(at least in my little world)

 

[Big Sauce 21]

oh boyyyy richo i'm telling you he's got the package

You'd probably have to de-list half the players in the AFL then. Australia has one of the highest rates of recreational drug use in the world, of course footballers are using recreational drugs. More disposable income= more expensive drugs.

One of the reasons why buying a house and installing an 8ft fence with electrified barbed wire around it and never coming out again is appealing to me. You humans are weird.

This is a pretty explosive article..... Can see the AFL being very very interested in it... Also it is not very hard to find out what players were on the golf trip... Unfortunately one is Dixon.

Cocaine confession: Karmichael Hunt reveals footy party boy lifestyle



“My memory from around this time was very hazy because of the amount I was drinking during the end-of-season weeks and I was using fair bit of cocaine around that time as well.”

I think they would already be well aware. I also think will not want to know. I'm sure their policy will be to not go looking for "trouble". It will be treated as history, and "changes at the club, means this sort of thing is gone from the Suns".

 

[Hollow Knight]

I know if I even KNEW of someone who was using I'd get fired in a heartbeat.

What?

The only thing getting done in a heartbeat in that situation is your employer for unfair dismissal.

Please don't talk to me about unfair and work

Looks like Bomber Thompson's real life predictions are about as ground-breaking as his partisan, mumbling commentary.

MARK Thompson fears James Hird’s coaching career at Essendon is doomed.

The man who coached the Bombers last year during Hird’s season-long suspension over the sports supplements saga, said last night he believed it was almost inevitable that the coach would be replaced at some stage.

What an incredible observation.

I'm going to go one further and predict that at some stage, he's going to die.

By replaced he means sacked. Hird could quit to concentrate on his studying which coaching is clearly getting in the way of.

Gold Coke Suns?

 

[Crimso]

Gold Coke Suns?

At least you get a fair idea where their "white line fever" starts.

Yeah I get that and understand but with this sort of information getting thrown directly into the publics eyes, I think it will be hard for them not to do something.

 

[Eons]

Cocaine has been rife in the AFL for many years. They even give out an award at the end of the year called Charlie for the player who has the most cocaine during the season.

 

[MacMum]

According to HUN, the Suns want names..........hope he provides those names.

 

[Bucking Beads]

The state of the game in QLD is just stuffed.

 

[Mr Ripper]

Stuffed everywhere. Don't expect to hear about it from the sycophants in the media, though.

 

[patfullfankezz]

And people told me I was being too pessimistic when I said Aussie Rules only has 20-25 years left in QLD, tops.

 

[Bucking Beads]

It makes it that much worse that 2 of the QLD NRL sides are on top of the ladder. Heck even the rabble that is the Titans have won more games this year than the QLD AFL sides combined. AFL in QLD is in a world of hurt.

When did you say that Kezz? not 15 - 20 years ago?

 

[patfullfankezz]

Right after the Go Home 5 left, and Eddie McWhingebag wouldn't let bygones be bygones.

You weren't being pessimistic you were being stupid. There is absolutely no way the Aussie Rules won't be around in QLD in 20 years.

 

[Football Pope]

Cocaine use is rife in football. We are pretty naive if we think players already on our list aren't using.

Yeah.....Couple of years ago I read an article that 90% of the American population would have traces of cocaine in their system...I thought BS...untill I read that the residue left on their $ notes (instrument of choice) from snorting was the primary reason.

 

[Football Pope]

According to HUN, the Suns want names..........hope he provides those names.

LOL...I had to read that twice......First take had ...The Herald Sun wanted names!

 

[ZoBlitz]

The club knows who the recreational users are, they are just trying to look proactive by announcing an investigation. Funnily enough the code of silence between Victorian clubs and the media about outing users doesn't seem to extend outside the state.
