A few beers vs Sleeping pills

Re: A few beers vs Sleeping pills

Fev would have no choice in a controlled enviroment, with 2 or 3 with his team mates and club entourage in the foyer after a game, perhaps Voss could get him one of those "Buddy's" that Franklin has, to make sure his head is pulled in at all times...

Can Fev be controlled by anyone?

Obviously not at Carlton or Brisbane.

Maybe if Ross let the boys have 1 or 2 occasionally, they may not need a skinfull or maybe be able to handle it a bit better and not end up in the poo that seems to follow them around.

He would just plead the 5th in that dry, boring monotone of his...something along the lines of "that's before the courts so I can't really go into that". Then he'd sprout off some jibberish about having respect for the other party and not wanting to add fuel to the fire and sensationalise the issue any further. I've lost all faith in any media commentator ever asking a remotely controversial question to an interviewee.

Interesting point you raise about asking the tough question's. The only two footy jurnos in the print media who have strong opinions are Walls and Wilson yet they are continually howled down by the general public. On radio Mark Maclure asks the tough questions regardless who they are.

I didn't see the show (no Foxtel) but what a jerk to say that to a champion footballer - what a w **ker! Just reinforces my opinion of the club and it's continual appearance in the media for all the wrong reasons.

I'm not a medical expert, but I would have thought that a couple of drinks would be a better health option than popping pills??

Re: A few beers vs Sleeping pills

The thing that annoys me about what Ross Lyon said - is that he is acting like they don't usually have a couple of quiet beers in the hotel bar after a game. They may not have had a couple on Saturday night - but they have done so before - and would have a couple somewhere if it was in Melbourne.

Thats all Darce was asking - he wasn't saying they would be out on benders. The response was ridiculous.

Tally up all the incidents over the years,

Drug issues, ( Stokes, Geelong, Freo, Weagles, etc etc)
Drink Driving ( Didak, Shaw, tigers/ Jay Schulz. etc etc )
Trouble with the ladies ( Lovett - Milne / Saints, Motlop / Port etc etc)
Gropers ( Buddy, Carey etc etc )
Miscellanious idiotary ( chicken-boners etc etc )
Cap fiddling ( Blues )
Boozers: Too many to mention

We do have Aker I suppose but he hasn't done anything you could be sued for or taken to court. Has he?

As far as the aints, you kind of get the feeling won't be long until the next headline.

Well done Bulldogs! the shining light of morality in the AFL. *White glow*

Now all we need to do is make amends to the Gay community by entering a float in the Mardis Gras!
And who should we pick as our lead dancer? hmmmm....

Didn't one of their players hook up with the underager at a night club after the Sydney game in round 1?

I meant in the context of his players not drinking after a game. If they were at a night club after a game you would think that they would be drinking also. Lyon wouldn't have a clue what some of his players would are up to.
