Maybe they will have a medal struck called the "Burning Dwarf Award" for the best clubman

My only surprise is how the likes of Dan Connors and Justin Sherman managed to fail this Club's 'yes dickhead' policy.

Interestingly Sherman has been doing a lot of good work for williamstown while he's been injured, think he's trying to prove something

I think it was Blake Johnston's nominated charity.

The actual charity selected is not the point.

I am frustrated that it's become a trend that when sports people step out of line, whether it be drunken abuse towards women, setting people on fire or racially abusing somebody a level of absolution is granted them if they give over some money to a charitable cause.

It's like a dickhead tax that doesn't actually deter people from acting like dickheads. I don't see the behaviour changing education in the process.

Would you be happier if it was charity work, IMO this would be much better and working with someone disadvantaged or quite ill might make them see how selfish and idiotic they have been and possibly make them appreciate just how good they have it and lucky they are.

The player should be charged for committing a criminal act and sued by the person the pain was inflicted on. That will get their attention.

Well said Jeemak. Very good point.

Regardless of the fine, surely this is a Police matter. I would think it would be at least a GBH charge, if not more.

I'm sure he'll fire through the media circles and light us all up with his charm until his fame becomes short-lived.

Might just watch the start of the Footy show to see what Sam has his mate do.
Could involve a Johnnie Cash song and a hula hoop.
