Rumour Pyke Flogging His Players

[DopeMaster]

I’m probably completely behind the 8-ball in this.

But saw on the news this evening Don Pyke refuting rumours he’d been beating up his players. Wtf? Seriously?
Snorting his players for playing like potatoes?

So I immediately came to the rumours board to see what was being thrown about and can’t see a thread anywhere...

Am I blind? How come there was a coach on the news defending a rumour, but this is nowhere to be seen on the rumour board?

So fill me in, what’s the likely fabricated story here?

In b4 the thread is directly below this one.

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

Are you talking physically..? If so, how?

 

[DopeMaster]

Just googled it, which I should have done in the first place....

Rumour was he and Jenkins punched on. Pretty ridiculous tbh.

Just thought it was weird there was nothing about it in this board, seeing as it seems to have done the rounds lately...

 

[Scorpus]

There was a rumor that Pyke and Josh Jenkins had a physical altercation when Pyke informed Jenkins he was dropped for last week's game against St Kilda. The rumor was that he had to be separated by players.

It seems that may have just been a heated discussion, not a physical beat up

 

[My Tilly]

Jenkins is 6ft'7 and 110kg and in his physical prime.
I cannot fathom how Pyke would walk away standing upright if this so called bust up did occur. Pretty bizarre rumour.

Crows are an interstate club

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

They havent recovered from their training camp two summers ago.

Rabble.

Have you seen how Jenkins plays?

I've heard Jenkins locker is already empty. Expect him to be at Carlton next year.

That was part of the rumour. He posted a picture of his locker on social media to prove it wasn't empty.

No chance he goes to the Blues, they don't need another tall forward especially at his age. Collingwood or Bulldogs more likely to come knocking

Lol we have McKay, Curnow, McGovern and a couple handy young talls, no chance of taking Jenkins

Wouldn’t mind Jenkins if cheap to provide depth for/usurp Cox. It’s an area the cupboard is pretty bare in at the Pies.

great, how about Sier for Jenkins and Mars bars and stuff

 

[BG32]

Already has his stuff in a locker at the Dees

 

[Cotchins Hair Piece]

I’m pretty sure Jenkins will die if he leaves the goal square at Adelaide Oval so cant see him going to Carlton.

Jenkins squibs tackles, bumps and any physical contact on field. You think he's getting in a fight?! Dude's the softest athlete alive

Hard no from me, but who knows?

Would it sweeten the deal if the stuff included a packet of home-made "Yo-Yo" biscuits?

U mean Seedy?

I’d think about it. Most Pies fans would likely disagree, but I reckon it’s in the ballpark.

 

[Mundusa]

If Jenkins wanted to hit me, I'd just pick up a football and I'd be fine.

Who knows, jenkins might actually think he can take on a 180cm 50 year old..
Although he still probably left with his tail between his legs.

Yep then just run towards him and he'll put in a half arsed effort to tackle you but ultimately move out the way. Fool proof

 

[Tex9798]

Media report ridiculous rumours about a punch on between player and coach and that's fine.

Media don't report a ridiculous rumour about a gambling situation at Collingwood, yeah that's being investigated by the police....

Pyke is no squib, he can look after himself.
