Harley Bennell punches on with 5 bouncers

[Braybrook Son]

I firmly believe all Harley needs is strong leadership and a strong mentor. He clearly hasn't had that since being drafted.

The Individual does not fail. Organisations fail.

Rubbish, if I was on AFL player wages, and lucky enough to have that great job, I’d be behaving myself. Some dropkicks are beyond help!

OP is a well known troll and has started a troll thread surprise surprise

Worth discussing without the misplaced troll judgment however.

Yep the OP is a troll. Not suprising, like 99.9 % of his posts are freo related. Most of his posts are Freo bashing posts

The bloke is the dumbest f***. Obviously will NEVER learn and NEVER grow up

Will clubs learn and not give him repeated chances though?

Bennell with another "calf strain". Wonder how long until freo and him "part ways"...surely by round 12.

About the same as Perth missing finals again. So 100%

Question without notice - If a player were to test positive to prescription drugs - would that count as a strike or would that be considered to be outside of the jurisdiction of the AFL's testing guidelines ?

Interesting to uncover a Sado masochistic Saints flog..even your own posters disown you..says it all..

Starting to unremember all the ASADA/Essendon stuff. But it's a mixed answer.

Some prescription drugs are totally fine. Some stuff is banned on match day only, such as Crowleys little "painkiller" - but it still has to clear your system (24 hours-ish). Some stuff you apply for a therapuetic exemption and then you can use it once approved. Some stuff just can't be used if you are a performing athlete, so make a decision on your health/lifestyle or playing sport at a top tier.

Noted - so therefore if a player was not currently playing (e.g. on the long term injury list) and thus not a currently performing athlete and also obviously unable to be tested on game day - and added to that had little disregard for their "health/lifestyle or playing sport at a top tier" - prescription drugs might well be their poison of choice to get their fix on a daily basis and yet avoid any strikes courtesy of the AFL's drug testing policies ???

Nope, whilst on an AFL list, they are considered an active player, injured or not, and can be tested any day.

Excellent thread so far.. A West Coast supporter alluding to drug use within a club that's not West Coast, a St Kilda supporter rabbitting on about a team "missing finals", and Bulldogs supporter making perfect sense. I honestly don't know which one is more surprising.

Bit like the years of docker fans hanging crap on WC for drug related incidents as if their backyard was ever clean from early 00's.

Mate, I generally don't make comment on off-field behaviours of players. They are young men with a sudden influx of money and fame, so I understand that all clubs are going to come across it. But seriously, if I was an Eagles supporter after what happened at that club i'd be avoiding the conversation like an 8 year old avoids Brussels Sprouts.

And there it is. I rest my case

Did an eagles supporter and a dockers supporter just agree on something?

 

[Strange Cat]

Lol freo supporters melting hard in here

 

[Strapping Young Lad]
