He was one of our coaches just a couple of years ago IIRC.
Pretty long list of charges it seems , he always seemed a bit fiery , think I read he has had a few run ins over the years

Wasn't he a bit of a piss pot as well and one of the reasons we got rid of him.
He presented JJ his Norm Smith medal on GF Day
6 months jail
At least the system did the right thing by jailing him.
What a dickhead! Cop your whack Shannon and move on.
I don't like his chances on appeal. The courts are starting to take a very dim view on Family Violence, particularly with injury assaults.
When I say starting to, it is a trend that has been building for around 3 or 4 years on my observations.
Essentially, from what I have observed anecdotally, any Family Violence assault where there are injuries, imprisonment is always on the table unless there's a compelling reason why it shouldn't be. This is particularly true where it is in breach of an intervention order.
