Come off it mate. I know you want to sound tough, but if you think that sort of thing is acceptable at a public concert you're just flat out wrong.

Not sure what you are getting at Stuie... I want to sound tough? Couldn't be further from the truth. I suggest you re-read what I wrote and you will then realise that I was saying that what was caught on that video showed very little more than a bit of a wrestle and that you do see worse things on the field of play. The post I was responding to was making it out to be some sort of major altercation in which lives were at risk.

And just for the record, I do not condone violence of any kind and at any venue.

Fair enough. But it's not on the field of play is it? It's at a public event with TOTALLY different standards.

Mitch Robinson will complete two months of community service and donate
$1000 to charity as part of a club penalty handed to him after his
involvement in a fight

Fair enough... don't know how old you are Stuie, but if you ever attended music events such as the Sunbury festivals, you would have felt safer on a footy field...and some of the worst offenders were the so-called security people (company run by a Bob Jones if memory serves).

Anyway, Robinson got his comeuppance and will hopefully think twice the next time (although somehow I doubt it).

Been to a stack, worked at a few, but never country one's, and by the sounds of it that's a good thing!

By all accounts Sunbury could be terrifying. Off topic - Sunbury 73 by Chris Wilson one of the great underrated songs. Sorry

I only went to the first Sunbury 3 day festival and it was, err, interesting. Big Chris Wilson fan all the way back to his Harem Scarem days...voice of an any and the harp from hell.

One of my old bestmates trained at/with Bob Jones, & sparred with his pretty boy champ, who went on to security for Linda Ronstadt I think it was?

In more recent times, Stan ran the Stkilda Inn, up til about 4 or 5 yrs back, & cleared out the Maori's who were bullying the other patrons.

He then renovated & opened the nightclub, before the building was sold.

Then he was moved out, before the current owner altered the building & reopened the bar.

If you ever get the chance, have a read of Bob Jones' biography, "Let the Good Times Roll". Tells of his time looking after all the big acts like the Stones, Bowie, Fleetwood Mac, Joe Cocker. Definitely enjoys puffing out his chest but man does that guy have some stories..if you're into the whole drugs, sex & rock n roll...and brutal violence.

Slapped over the head with a cut1/2 bunch of Celery.

Some of still remember the bogan's king hit on Rohan Bail at Casey in 2009. Added to his 'bruise free' comments Id love to see him eating dirt when he plays the Dees this year, Hopefully there is now enough mongrel in our side to give him his come uppance...

He struggles to think once.
