He'll lose his licence for 2 years because of this. Godawful judgement at the worst time imaginable.

Smart move really. Imagine the headlines if he taken the breath test and blew the bag apart. I'm thinking he was plastered.

[daisycutter 29,613]

i'd say he panicked more when he realised they'd do a drug test as well as a breath test

[SaberFang 7,151]

Ignored a stop sign, didn't have his P plates on, refused breath test so likely drink driving, lost licence for 2 years.

Yeah, don't think Roos will have much interest in someone with decision making like that. Almost certainly zero chance for pick 3 now.

If it's some secret strategy concocted by another team to make him slide, and he's dumb enough to be complicit in such a scheme despite legal ramifications and a police record, why would we want anything to do with him?

In either scenario there are serious red flags about his character and his judgement.

Jack Darling slept with a girl in a tent on school camp. This guy is pulling this rubbish the week before he's due a massive contract. At his size, his career could really go either way, with his decision making he's clearly on the back foot now.

essendon now bound to take him - ideal fit

Geelong Falcons regional manager Michael Turner and Curnow’s manager, Paul Connors, provided a statement to the AFL and clubs this morning saying the player had made “a poor choice”.

“He was pulled over by police for driving through a stop sign. A breath test was requested to which Charlie, in his moment of panic, refused,” the statement said.

“He was taken to a police station. Charges against Charlie could be being drunk in public, refusing breath analysis and not displaying P-plates.”

Curnow was in Melbourne’s sights at pick 3, while Essendon also has a strong interest with picks 4 and 5.

A source said the incident was “a wake-up call that he must learn from”.

Another talent expert said the incident could dampen Curnow’s draft prospects at certain clubs.

“If you had a question mark over him already, you wouldn’t take him now,” the source said.

“But, if you were really hot on him, you would still take him.”

Charlie, Chuck, Chas what were you thinking?

[SaberFang 7,151]

LOL

He refused his breath test "in a state of panic."

Which is such a normal reaction for a sober driver to make. That's all every sober driver does when pulled over by a booze bus.

Someone has consulted their lawyer handbook.

Don't tell me Worsfold is at it again..

Just had a 'chicken little' moment...is he Colin Sylvia 2.0?

Oh they are so similar stories FFS

Darling - Played up at school camp and got king hit

Garlett - drug issues, history of trouble with Police,

About the only similar characteristic they had was they both thought their ability would get them through

Missing the point mate.

Simply pointing out that for every kid that makes a dumb decision but still makes it there's 3 that don't.

Every case is different.

Stuie lets not derail the thread, I know both stories very well in regard to Garlett & Darling.

Every case is different as you say and it is very much the case with these two. The press only knows a minute amount of what DG was up to

[Spin-it-to-Goodwin-it 579]

Way too much of a coincidence and smells rotten to the core - definitely a set up.

sounds like such but only a real idiot would risk what the Police, may , or may not do.

Sounds like a conspiracy...more just a dlckhead !!

Oh please someone sets up going through a stop sign then refuses a drug test loses their licence for two years and then has a record to manipulate the Draft!

Beggars belief.
