Rumour Eagles to keep Mitchell

[HairyO]

How dare he put his wife's mental health ahead of his work contract....

Man there are some callous people in here.

What, mental health, how do you know that?

 

[blue harvest]

Any truth to the rumour that he was disliked at Hawthorn and equally despised at West Coast?

By Essendon fans yes.

 

[DERO]

By Essendon fans yes.

Them too!

 

[HairyO]

Because its what he has said. His wife was not coping with living in Perth and was moving back to Melbourne with the kids, with him or without him.

He put family first.

Hawks supporters: pro-family since July 2018

He put family first.

That's a pretty liberal definition of 'mental health'.

 

[DERO]

Because its what he has said. His wife was not coping with living in Perth and was moving back to Melbourne with the kids, with him or without him.

He put family first.

And because everyone hates him.

He put family first.

By the same token Geelong should just release Tim Kelly from his contract, since his partner isn't coping with living in Geelong.

And because everyone hates him.

This is the Mitchell thread the Goddard ones elsewhere.

I am sure that there would be plenty who dislike BJ at times myself included. I am simply pondering whether the rumours about Mitchell being a bit of a knob are true and whether this had any influence on the decisions.

They're having zero affect for you.

From your limited and thoughtless perception perhaps

No, from fact actually.

 

[davis_756]

No, from fact actually.

You have no idea about the inner workings of the Carlton Football Club, that much is an indisputable fact.

 

[Footy 1st]

'Not coping' and 'with or without him' were the cues you may have missed...mental health has scales like all health, fixing the issues early can prevent the severity increasing

 

[jdisc]

apparently contracts are deemed void if you simply "don't cope" with the awful anarchic conditions of Cottesloe

 

[Farang83150]

No and neither do you, but the fact that they're playing 100% garbage football and have been doing so for such a long time is obvious, so the coaches are not getting through to the players.

Yeah the wife getting the shits doesn't immediately constitute 'mental health'.

 

[Footy 1st]

Yeah the wife getting the shits doesn't immediately constitute 'mental health'.

Getting the shits? Oh, I thought it said 'not coping'. Some people really struggle with a feeling of isolation, parenthood, a million other things etc but if it's just a case of cranky pants then my bad

Wasn't aware that 'not coping' was a medical term. Being unhappy isn't a condition.

People are far too quick to throw out the mental 'health card' these days.

Haven't claimed anything as a medical term. Just alluding to the fact there could be any manner of issue under that phrase.
Maybe SOME people are to quick to "throw out the mental health card" however there are also those that were far too late.

But such a likeable knob.

You admit to knowing nothing and then proceed to go and tell us what is happening anyway.

Have a nice day champ, you made my point for me.

Thank god for that
