Surfs up dude

[mayne iac]

Blakeley axed from this weekend cause he wagged training to hit Yallingup early this week.....oh dear, surfie bum!

 

[UFO Tatsu]

Best time to do it is after you signed a new contract

 

[Nightrain]

Really disappointing to hear. Always came across as a kid who had his head screwed on right and who put his footy first.

Maybe thinks he's off the leash since signing the new deal. People would be forgiven in questioning his commitment now.

Fn surfing! Couldn't he have just gone home and rode a skateboard up and down his driveway if he had an itch to scratch? You could forgive him if his excuse was "he had to go see about a girl", but surfing!?!

 

[mayne iac]

Surf was pretty nice early in the week but I have one problem. They said he went surfing, technically he went boogie boarding, If you go surfing, generally you stand up.... He's a mad keen boogie boarder.

 

[DMan 11]

meh, he's human - and what, 19 years old....

there are far bigger misdemeanors or worse still that he could of been involved in.

He appears to be a dedicated club man from all reports, I don't have issue with this - he'll learn his lesson being publicly shamed and i'm sure he would have been made to stand up and explain his actions to the group.

Quick let's blow this out of proportion lol

 

[electricfeel]

Its Harley Bennell's fault amirite

I think it's actually a cover up and he's on two strikes...

 

[mike91]

Idiotic decision which surely could of waited til after training. Meh, he'll miss this game and learn from it, doesn't seem the type to do something stupid like this again.

 

[jedi mind tricks]

Good decision it's gonna be 12 to 18 foot in Margs this Sat. Perfect opportunity for a few barrels

Lamb > Blakely?

 

[DaveLister]

As scandals go, this one is pretty mild

Bite your tongue!

 

[Keys]

Lamb > Blakely?

If people could have placed a bet on which of these two would ditch training to go for a surf instead, most of them would have lost their money

The lie about being sick would get up the other players noses. Will cop a lot of shit over it.

Not sure if you ever watched the Recruit, but it gave a real insight into how the group views these kind of things, and how much stick the guy will cop for it.

You have to be able to trust your mates in the trenches!

 

[Boppo]

Yeah multiple games should be missed here. Poor form.

 

[scon]

Incorrect proposal:1 game+flak.

Dude, didn't you read mayne iac's post, he's a boogie boarder, you don't have to stand up.
I personally love that Connor did what he did. What a great approach to life.

And so he should. Makes you wonder what sort of a team we got.

 

[Kepfan]

We have a long history of drafting/recruiting surfers, Modra and Sinclare come to mind.... back in the bad old days that was about all we had to attract players to our club.
