I would take Maurice Rioli every day of the week, over the filthy scum bag that Williams was.

I think Simon Black was at least equal to Mitchell. Just a rolled gold gun.

Don’t think the intensity of SOO will be terribly high.

West Coast is investigating an alleged street brawl involving a young forward which left a man hospitalised. STORY >> bit.ly/4aBstauwww.facebook.com
Probably curtains for his career. Hasn't really done too much at the Eagles in any case. Shame as he was such a bright talent for us in a dreary time.

I had posted this yesterday but looks like it got deleted, along with some other posts, as part of the (software?) upgrade on the forum.
Thought I'd re-post it as it's an excellent article:

Thought I'd re-post it as it's an excellent article:
Ditch the music, and don’t lecture us: 10 resolutions the AFL should adopt in 2026
If the 2025 AFL season had been a movie, Margaret Pomeranz would have been hard-pressed to give it more than three stars. It’s time for the league to hit 2026 with a new resolve.
Absolutely terrible news to hear as this young man was really just starting out his life.
Without knowing the exact details of what has happened it’s hard not to notice the Lifeline links that accompany certain articles but if it is what those links seem to be pointing to then you can’t help but feel that the AFL need to do more for their former employees.
So many kids get chewed up and spat out of the AFL system and then struggle to find a purpose in life after the realisation that they’ve been told that they’re not good enough to live the dream they grew up chasing. Maybe the AFL should put more funding into to their players transitioning out of the game than silly things like AFL X and the ridiculous number of other fads over the years.
Just one of the many reasons it’s so important that we here on BigFooty choose our words wisely when we critique players becasue as we’ve seen time and time again a lot of them and their families have been on our board.
Really do feel for this kids family and friends as I’m sure it will be an impossible hole to fill. RIP young man.

That first comment though.
So true.
You can be critical of players, but also, be human. It's the only thing we've all got in common.
I hope his family have the support they need.

I never actually saw anything at all in Brockman.
But that’s just my personal opinion
No one feel afraid to speak, not saying it’s that. Hope it isn’t, but can’t be surprised if that were the case. Not weak to speak and everyone has an outlet for someone to speak to, happy to put my hand up. Open to anyone in my DMs who need a conversation about anything. You’re not alone and we all appreciate you 
Clubs do have a career advisor, it isnt mandatory for players to see them though
Sad occurrence Either way but I just saw an article that has his family wanting to acknowledge that he didn’t take his own life.
One of my son's Xmas presents was a Hawthorn calendar. He quickly noticed that a Melbourne player snuck in for the month of June. Good luck to CJ at his new club. 
Guessing the printing press can't wait till after the trade period.

Not if you take into account what he was paid. If he weren't in that ridiculously salary assisted Lions side he would have taken someone else out of the side due to salary cap issues. Mitchell accepted unders to keep his side together.

My wife and kids went through exactly what he's going through. had a different reaction though. It's just stuff. Didn't have news crews covering specifically our place, just dealt with it.

Never knew about this. Extra 500k a season on top of a 6mil salary cap. Wonder what their list would’ve looked like without it
