Scandal Brian Lake gets sprung having a day out, does the public confession / rehab pledge

[Andrew Birch]

Yep. Question I have with these sort of things is whether they want or (more to the point) need to change.

I could be very wrong but someone like Lake just strikes me as a pretty normal dropkick.

He goes out and has a good time, sometimes takes it too far, gets in trouble, but nothing serious.

Then someone takes a photo of the obvious and it’s all “oh I’ve gotta go to rehab” etc. I mean give me a break. Do we really need these tearful episodes?

I reckon there’s a fair chance Lake doesn’t even think he’s done the slightest thing wrong and won’t change anything. It’s all PR, which is notoriously shitscared of the conservative population in a “lowest common denominator” sense.

I’m sure they’re told to do this garbage in case they’ve damaged a publicly visible career. I mean ****in Mumford ffs. Apparently there was talk of rehab. It’s some random video from years ago. He’s led a pretty normal life since.

It’s all just such bullshit.

LOL He's a wife bashing coke fiend but apparently conservatives are the lowest common denominator.

Didn’t mean it like that, conservatism is a spectrum, PR aims at the most conservative types. There’d be many “conservatives” who don’t care what Lake does.

Rubbish, PR is mostly aimed at SJW types who are offended by everything. They are Socialists, not conservative.

How dumb are these clowns to let someone take pic or video?

Fmd they are stupid.

The AFL's carpet has been lifted this week.

There's no carpet at AFL House, it's all floorboards.

I don’t mean it in a political sense, stop trying to get offended.

"Brian Lake will head to Asia next week to seek professional help."

 

[hamohawk1]

Don't really condone the behaviour but gee I'm getting real sick of campaigners taking this photos/videos

Post footy life not being kind to Brian. But really why is this news? He’s not a current player. He’s just a bloke doing a line of coke.

 

[halalsnackpack]

It's hard to see him surviving this scandal

 

[00Stinger]

Spot on.

Although, I wished I had have taken photos of the Hawthorn premiership side that I saw walking into the cubicles in twos in the corporate at the GP a few years back. I hate those pricks.

I have seen some players off their faces, even a couple of players that I hate. But taking a pic of them and distributing it would be a campaigners act imo

Hey I went to school with the bloke who sent the message haha.

I agree. I wouldn’t do it either other than to show ABASI MODERATOR.

Nah, wife bashing coke fiend conservatives are the lowest common denominator.

Nah, wife bashing coke fiend conservatives are the lowest common denominator.

Labor voters have a monopoly on wife bashing and coke fiending.

Why? I’m reliably informed by big footy posters that everybody does it and it’s no big deal.

Anyway, everyone knows who they were, there was if I recall mention of it in the media at the time

I’m just not sure what satisfaction people get from distributing these sort of photos or do they get sold to the media.

Imagine back in the day the photos you would of got at a time when there didn’t seem to be a code of conduct or “care”.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Wouldn’t bother, I hear he already has a drug photo of every AFL listed player in the inbox.

 

[Rod Stroker]

Genuinely LOLd at the rehab in Asia line. Unless he'll be off the grid in a rural buddhist monastery for weeks, no one comes here to get rehabbed.

 

[Upgrayedd]

Writing was on the wall after he was jailed in Japan for assaulting a police officer. Hope he gets the help he needs

Ah..... no wonder conservatives are so loved.

Will be part of the commentary team next year or at least on a footy show.
