Dont remember this much broo-haha and multi page spreads when Matthew Jaensch, Tony Armstrong and Graham Johncock were busy drink driving or smashing into parked cars.
Maybe I was in a coma or something at the time.

Well apparently its called the "powertiser" for a reason. We get double page spreads, front page and editorial, while Jenkins cat only got a snippet in the classifieds section.

He never made the same mistake again. Right after this, he went to the pet store and bought a patsy.

I think you'll find a lot of Crows players now own cats with poor constitutions.

I am so googling this.

I need my fix of gossipy stories today (yes I'm looking at you MaggiesPower - pfft a kangaroo/dog/headlock/punch not damn good enough)
You'll find ST has ST to blame if his x wife has moved on. There's a reason why some player need to keep playing

Probably coz he was pissed, left the scene of an accident , damaged 4 cars for starters.
Cool, how many pages for the legend who stole the merc and crashed on the southern freeway today and in all likelihood killed someone??

How many pages did jenchy get for being 3 times over the limit? Or maybe Jars should've got a mate to cover for him??

**** off on your high horse.

He left the scene of an accident and may or not have been under the influence of alcohol. If he wasn't an indigenous Ports player would this have been given a front page plus a double page spread?

Scott Thompson wrote off a car, damaged power distribution infrastructure, injured a person, left the scene of the accident and later lied to police and coerced witnesses into supporting his lie. Please feel free to provide a copy of the double page spread The Advertiser ran on this story.

This is always going to be big news. Please don't kid yourself otherwise. It made national news shows on both Sunday and Monday.
I do laugh at the hysterical responses from seemingly all parties though. Shit like this happens from time to time. Young man stuffs up whilst on the piss on a Saturday night. Happens to play AFL footy.
Depending on who you talk to, Impey has mental issues, Port have culture problems, bikes may or may not have been stolen, Angus Monfries has many wild parties and threatens his neighbours, Port's leadership is stuffed for condoning Impey to get behind the wheel, Ports heirachy deliberately instructed Impey to avoid the cops, Impey should be banned from footy for a year etc etc etc

In 2 weeks time this will largely be forgotten. ..
