      Not good. We know AFL footy can be forgiving to domestic abusers but this should be career over if he’s found guilty.
      Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

        I look forward to Wayne Carey's hot take on this.

          Holy shit this is just the worst!
          But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

            Yep, agree totally. Is he still on suspension from the Covid breach?

                Yeah, for the remainder of the season.

                    That's right and apparently it's the same girl involved

                        Clearly, if this is proven true it is unacceptable.

                        However, there must be some merit in delving into the circumstances and seeing if Taylor can be helped back to the right path in life.

                        Suggesting that he is finished is not helpful for anyone.

                        If we don't embrace a system that allows for atonement and rehabilitation we are effectively sending people to a scrapheap that will have their life spiral to a form of oblivion.

                          Should he be helped to be a better person and live a normal life, yes.

                          If true should he be granted the many benefits that come with being an AFL player? No. I believe that is what people mean when they say he's finished

                            If true it's hard to imagine he plays again. Footy is a short career and he at this stage is a nobody.
