Sydney Stack Discussion

Oppos melting

 

[Jkdyer]

I'll back the police report which is enough in itself for outrage.

have you read it?

 

[Gak Attack]

have you read it?

Press release. Yes. Do you think they lied?

Let's not be essendon fans. Our players can do wrong.

It is exactly the reason.

To be fair. With everything we know about Sydney, the expectation that he become this perfect angel to create this "kid from the wrong side of the track makes good" narrative is a bit unrealistic and sets him up to fail.

He was always going to make mistakes along the way.

Everyone knows that Sydney needed strong mentors with a structured environment to keep him on track.

I am not in the least surprised that he has struggled this year, given all reports that he did zero work during the COVID break, came back unfit, and now has gone and done this given their is no second's league to keep him occupied. Devil finds work for idle hands.

Everyone knows that Tigers took a risk with Stack. A risk is by definition something that has a high probability of not working out.

I wouldn't go and say "look at everything we did for you and you spat it back in our face".

He royally f’ed up, but this year was always going to be hardest on folks like Sydney that need a bit of extra guidance.

He should get sent home, be sent the bill for the fine that he can pay off over 12 months, and him and CCJ can front up to the footy dept staff who have all lost their jobs and taken pay cuts to keep the club going and hear how they feel about it.

After that, start again with him in pre-season, and if he hasn't pulled his head next year, the Tigers know they have done everything they possibly can, but it's time to go separate ways.

Fair point. How many more chances will he get though? I was under the impression that this is sort of his last chance/ straw to prove him self as a professional footballer

Completely agree mate, great take

 

[Tiges1229]

fmd what absolute ****wits , would get rid of both of them

 

[HTT]

How do they even get out of the hub with no one noticing? How far is the hub from where they went?

Pretty sure players are allowed to leave it, just the strip club bit is probably not so allowed.

 

[BC9_]

Stack needs to pull his head in, and his dick.

 

[FreeTK]

True, but he was in an isolation hub during a pandemic - with 50 odd peers and leaders by his side...
Not sure how much more 'structured' it could get!

Yep, and with nothing to do.

He was left to his devices for the entire covid break, when what someone like Sydney really needs to positive pressure from his peers which comes from face to face contact with your peers and senior leaders at day to day training.

He is hardly playing seniors, and there is no seconds comp, just a kick and giggle scrimmage.

Sydney was always going to make mistakes along the way. Unfortunately COVID means his mistakes are costly, not just for him, but the club and the AFL broadly.

 

[VB_longneck]

they are not banned from strip club. they cant fine em for that as its within the rules

 

[Ceehook]

well dimma did say in the post-match some players were going to go bushwalking

easy mistake to make

err no

not many have a bush these days

 

[Jkdyer]

Press release. Yes. Do you think they lied?

Let's not be essendon fans. Our players can do wrong.

relax, just a question. answer = no. police reports are very detailed so just wanted to know if you have read the 10 pages or so of facts.

 

[Jack5]

Presuming all this is confirmed I would be totally ok with sending both these blokes to Balmys place for a bit of his 1970s style education.

Seriously, though I'd be totally comfortable with sacking Stack, he's already proven himself unreliable with his fitness. Its line ball with CCJ for me, I believe in second chances but this is serious enough to warrant immediate sacking. At a minimum CCJ needs to be sent home. Strong message needs to be sent to the rest of the playing group. Big mistake not having Balme up there. Really pissed off.

 

[Tenacious T]

Just undone years of a culture envied by others........Bloody imploding.

Only a flag will make up for it.

 

[DannyS]

Definitely not a good situation but the club will work through it. In the scheme of things, and without knowing all the facts, you have to give the players some chance to explain themselves. Is their stuff up any more sackable than others this year (say, senior player crashing into 4 cars whilst under the influence)?

 

[Thrasher97]

someone please do a simpsons strippers meme with stack and ccj in it

This one?

 

[beema limapep]

Send em home. Any fines are on them personally. Dont want our membership money in these hard times to be used by the club for this sort of indulgent bullshit.

 

[VB_longneck]

Oppos melting

want the club to give em a little fine and nothing else just for oppos to melt and be salty some more

 

[Bill Haverchuck]

So with Balmey and Gale being in melb would Dimma and Tim Livingstone be the 2 most senior people in the hub?

Nah, sacking is overkill imo. Stack should be given a final warning to shape up or his gone. CCJ, just fine and suspend

 

[Bazzar]

Deb Knight on 2GB just had a reporter from QLD saying fighting themselves. BIG punchup as well.
$800 on the spot fine from the cops for the punchup.

 

[VB_longneck]

This one?

Do a search on Sydney Stack and read the rubbish written about our club from jealous oppos.

Oppos melting

Mate, I'm melting. This is disgusting knowing what could potentially be on the line. It brings Richmond's name into disrepute as well as their own. It will cost the club big time.

I'm not calling for them to be sacked but I think everyone has the right to melt over this

Name them this week in the side and toss the coin .
