Milne charged

Featured Replies

The point is it should be heard in court, not a newspaper.

Or on tv or Facebook. As much as its not right it's the world we live in.

 
 

He's playing this weekend.

He is NOT playing this week.. Officially stood down by St Kilda on 7 news right now...

I would have thought St Kilda would have to suspend him pending the court case - it is common practice for any organisation to suspend an employee who has been charged with a serious offence while waiting on a resolution. If St Kilda don't, it sends a very poor message indeed.

Hmmm. Mick Malthouse fined $7,500 for his angry words - should Milne be found guilty (and Malthouse therefore proven correct) what do you think his chances of a refund are?

About the same as ours of getting our $500,000 Tanking Fine back... :blink:

As Usual another Media blunder... !

STEPHEN Milne's playing future is in doubt after being told to take leave for an 'indefinite' period.

St Kilda president Greg Westaway said while Milne would remain a listed AFL player, the decision was made in the "best interests of all parties" and out of a duty of care to the goalsneak.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • 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.
