Footballers behaving badly

The stupidity of some footballers never ceases to amaze me. After the fiasco with Richmond players at their Sydney hotel earlier this year, you would have thought that players would pull their heads in while on interstate trips. But no, the latest travelling idiot is Daniel Motlop who has been suspended for a week by the club after breaking a curfew while in Darwin last weekend.

They never learn!

    I wonder what the personal circumstances in his life that the club referred to are. I wouldn't mind seeing clubs be a little more lenient.

    It says it in the article.

    Also I reckons he's got harsh deal here, because all he did was go pick his girlfriend up from the airport. If he doesn't pick her up he's probably in trouble with her, so maybe he's picked the lesser evil.

    Got his pants pulled down by Chip IMHO ;)

    In most cases, footballers are stupid. I hope that we acquired the 44 who aren't.

    Thought the topic was about the saints boys and their alleged problems OR Michael Johnson having been caught with a drug before .

    Motlops transgression is minor IMHO

    Too many clubs think they can turn their transgressors into instant Steve Johnsons. Just add a suspension & voila !

    Should have been kept inhouse & Motlop made aware of his responsibilities in a way that doesn't impact onfield. And given a cabcharge account.

    He picked up hs missus from the airport. FFS

    Being in Darwin I don't see how he could have picked her up other than in a taxi. Surely he didn't drive there from Adelaide and I doubt he would have hired a car.

    If he rode in a taxi to the airport and then back in a taxi with her to the hotel due to safety concerns (it was 2 am) I don't have a problem with it. However he probably should have mentioned that to the support staff earlier in the day and they could have made alternate plans so he didn't have to break curfew. He also could have put her on an earlier flight. But I guess he's not that smart.

    BTW - i reckon redleg was being sarcastic, Chipper smashed him

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
