Should wait for confirming details, doesn’t sound good regarding Majak Daw, hope he recovers well physically and mentally.

First reports claimed he fell from the Bolte but it looks like they were just not reporting on an attempted suicide. Can't believe he has non life threatening injuries from it

I mean.. even from the first report you didn't think to join the dots?

Ah I forgot that not having suicidal thoughts impacts on the nature of your injuries.
When getting out of your car, climbing the fence and jumping.
Lol this is peak nuffy from you.
s**t, only just read about it then. Hope he’s okay.

Never mind mate. Was just an utterly bizarre first comment on the situation from you.

What a s**t situation for Majak to find himself in. Hope he can get the help he needs from his club, friends and family.
Not sure JD meant anything untoward with his comments, seemed fine to me.

The way the media articles I first saw presented it, it’s easy to see a headline and misinterpret what has happened.

Yeah and I get they are vague on reporting on these situations all the time but it really was made to sound like it wasn't a serious situation with it being "just" minor injuries.
The first article I read about it this morning was on The Age, a brief article at that.
It just referred to an “incident” where he fell off the Bolte Bridge, it was quite tactful and didn’t mention or allude to an attempted suicide.
Not sure if it’s been updated since, but for anyone reading that it was ambiguous as to what happened. At the bottom of it was where it referred to the Lifeline/Beyond Blue numbers and I guess that’s where you can connect the dots.
Very sad set of circumstances.

We had it all wrong. Eagles booing Goodes and the umpires is clearly a mark of respect.
