Scandal Troy Pannell fraud

[McKuursma]

I played at a club for a few seasons, not too far from the Western Oval.
After training one Thursday night, while waiting for the teams to be read out, a player shit in another players footy bag.
Might be a western suburbs thing.

Maybe not a western suburbs thing, more generational-based. A ripping rumour I heard years ago (from who exactly escapes me, all I remember is that they would have been in position to understand the veracity) was that a certain Vic test batsman who is universally acknowledged as extremely stiff to not have played in more tests once shit in the kitbag of a teammate whilst on an U19s tour. The teammate ended up being the national captain

But did he?

He was the Ump who gave Craig McDermott out in the Adelaide test match of 1992/93 which the Windies won by 1 run..

Still doubt today on whether the ball hit McDermott's glove...

I think it did hit the glove, but McDermott's glove wasn't on the bat, so it should have been not-out.

I'm sure DRS would have fixed everything!

Brad Hodge or Mathew Elliot?
I’m thinking Hodgey.

MAXimum?

Would be my guess too.
He and Punter were born 10 days apart, so would've come through the U/19 program at the same time.

I remember once taking a dump in a cubicle toilet in a designated bathroom, wiping my bum, full flushing the toilet, washing my hands, then drying my hands before walking away.

No lockers or kit bags handy?

Destroying the evidence eh

I thought the ball brushed his helmet. My heart broke for Allan Border that day. Given all the tough times he went through against the Windies he deserves a FW trophy.

It's interesting, I still have a collection of footy books back from the 90s. One (I forget the title) consisted of a bunch of former players retelling stories from their time, humorous yarns. Inevitably, many tell stories of players playing pranks on each other: bags of prawns or fish in boots of cars and other such things; or alternatively someone doing a nude run down a hotel corridor on an end of season trip. it seems very much a part of the ocker Australian culture back then.

Now you'd get a stern warning from HR.

No, and couldn't find a hat either!

You sick, sick person. Seek help.

Mick Malthouse found a dead possum and put it in Jim Jess’ locker at Punt Rd, around 1980. Good clean fun.

Yeah, maybe it did. Either way, he wasn't out.

Been all downhill for the Windies since pretty much that series.

Cheers

Not what I expected to read when I opened this thread..

On the subject of shit bags though, Pannell sure seems like one (allegedly)

 

[Rabish Binney]

Grave Danger? MacIntosh? McDermott?

Ralph Sewer, was playing for Woodville at the time.

There is also a rumour that Ralph got up at the bar at the Bay disco when he was playing for Glenelg (SA people would know about the legendary Bay disco) and opened his fly and pissed on the bar.

As one does..

I’ve watched the reply countless times, as many on here have.

To me, it looks like the ball hits his upper arm/elbow.

Once given out, he didn’t seem to be upset at the decision, so maybe it did brush the glove?

I would question the legitimacy but the author being "Police & Courts" is exactly what the HS would do. Ain't no one with AFL media accreditation touching that story with a barge pole.

Which says it all. That’s how corruption breeds.
