Status in Question Tyson Stengle

[tenderwarrior]

Where was this?

I took that to mean his mental health going forward with the public scrutiny, not that it was caused by mental health

I think Ginnivan made a mockery of the AFL and mental health last year.

 

[Port 2004]

I used to get black out drunk 2 or 3 times a week at Tyson's age and I haven't massacred anyone

You might have.

 

[TheEscapeClub]

Pretty sure ketamine isn't normally tested for and it's out of the system as fast, if not faster, than cocaine.

Drug of choice for Daniel Kerr from memory.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

You might have.

Massacred a couple of ABs at Red and White.

 

[ams4crows]

So is he going to be selected this week? To be fair he'll probably kick 6 if he does play maybe they should rest him they're gonna win anyway

Apparently he will but I think it's the wrong call personally

Don't most players get a club-imposed suspension if they drink alcohol during a season?

is going to play the next game after going to a nightclub and getting smashed to the point of passing out? And that idiot Dangerfield has the gall to justify it saying "players have a right to enjoy themselves"?

Clearly Geelong do not have standards.

Can I get a citation on that one as it's news to me.

Lol, no.

 

[boora]

Did he hook up with Matthew Stokes?

and Ronnie Burns was the driver

Clubs looking to appease the media and lowest common denominator on the internet by proving they have a 'strong cultcha', maybe. Geelong obviously think they can deal with it in a different manner while also having him earn his pay by doing his job and by extension helping his teammates.

Yes, clearly it's just dealing with the problem in a "different" way. Having a player hit up a nightclub and get smashed in the middle of a season just isn't really a problem at all.

Only at Geelong.

AFL: "We are OK with how this is being handled."
Tyson Stengle: "I am OK with how this is being handled."
Geelong(most successful club of the 21st century): "We are OK with how this is being handled."

BigFooty.com user LunchtiJake98: "I am NOT OK with how this is being handled!!!"

Lmao you're not that important buddy.

Usually those no alcohol rules are enforced when having a 5 or 6 day break or during injury recovery

 

[StillAtLarge]

What do people honestly want Geelong to do? Publically shit on the bloke and hang him out to dry?
He likely won't be available for selection this week, that's probably a fair enough sanction imo

 

[Private Hudson]

Yeah ok.

Martin Bryant had 1 incident in his life.

ahhh Big Footy you just keep on delivering

I know someone who takes that for a pain condition and it sounds about as far from fun as you can get.

 

[conodie05]

Yeah the same applies. Stokes did some dumb things as a young man but developed into an excellent footballer and a wonderful person. Why can't the same be true of Stengle?

I really hope he does. Too many players with ridiculous talent have been lost to the game prematurely for a variety of reasons.

How many chances does one bloke get though?

I know someone* who takes it occasionally on weekends and they have a very different perspective.

* that person is me

These issues clearly aren't impacting his footy and this was victimless. If that continues then he'll probably get unlimited chances and the club will try to help him out in any way they can.

It becomes a team problem if it impacts his footy because it's hard to justify someone being unprofessional within the team unit if they're not performing. It's a huge problem if his behaviour becomes worse than just writing himself off (drunk driving which he's done once before or violence which he's never been accused of). In that case he'd be given the flick pretty quick I'd think.

I also imagine his contract would have more clauses than standard with regards to off field behaviour.

 

[north_lad]

This thread is so boring can't somebody make up a fun story about what happened? Currently just Geelong fans banging on about how great they are, who the **** wants to read that

What did you expect?
Geelong fans are really bad at dealing with any kind of scrutiny and criticism directed toward their club.

 

[Sherrinator]

This excuse worked well for those Collingwood players who claimed their steaks had been spiked.

I assume he can show his credit card showing only one drink purchased. Not 17...

Should be easy since he would’ve been shouted all night

 

[HairyO]

Should be easy since he would’ve been shouted all night

Im not sure that is guaranteed. Or was he at a pub where players go for free booze?
