Wow, that'll affect the value they get back...

Really. Should it ?

I ask because so much becomes so sanitized.

He seems like an absolute arzhole. 

We all have our journey.

I wonder how many workers are adjudicated  by anyone as to their 'whatever' upon fronting up to work ?

Any money some clubs are salivating at the steal they coyld commit .

The gambling issue is what clubs will be particularly worried about I would think.

I just had visions of morning talk back with the CEO/coach/prez of the club that recruits him.

Value went down with that article.

Pretty tacky way to air your dirty laundry. Two days ago it was all about her new breasts and new man.

For the sake of my kids, I'd tone it down. Each to their own I suppose. 

Don't get me wrong, Stringer is a filthy man-[censored], I hope he still goes to Essendon.

Is this done and dusted as far as the Bulldogs are concerned?

She mentioned the club had a duty of care to look after him and the article suggests they didn't.

Fantastic opportunity for the club that lands Stringer to help him rebuild his life - clearly the Dogs dont have the support structure needed. Nobody yet has stated what crime he has committed or what he did wrong apart from let his personal life effect his professional life. Had his form not dropped at the Doggies all the bulldust would have blow over. 

Sure the noisy right wing conservative do-gooders will have their say - but its 2017 not 1964.

I wish it was 1964 from a football perspective....

No not that way. I mean i feel bad for them with having a father who ! is a public AFL footballer and the way he has been acting and the fall out from such behaviour. And two those kids will be adults one day and instead of looking back at their dad as an AFL player they will sadly have to only have a real low life person to remember.

Once upon a time there was this thing called humour and people had a sense of it!!

Relax-the AFP are on the way to your house and you can explain it to them.

Those days are long gone from our culture. Humour is only in old dusty books locked in the safe.

What would be a less tacky way? She said in the article she tried approaching the club about it and was turned away. 

The man has problems, clearly. He is on a path to ruin and seems hell bent on hurting those he claims to love in the process. He almost certainly isn't the only one in the AFL system having these battles. The clubs and the AFL aren't doing much to change it. I don't see how the ball can get rolling on addressing toxic culture without someone speaking up.

But his form did drop off at the dogs, his personal life did effect his (and others at the clubs) professional life. They are givens, not hypothetical. 

He's a nasty piece of work and I'm glad it appears our club will continue its 'no dhead' policy. Nearly all posters on here have faith in the recruiting decisions Goody, Taylor, TViney and Mahoney have made over the last few years. You should too.

Your continual love for Stringer and hyperbolic rants about "noisy right wing conservative do gooders" is certainly good for a laugh. Ever thought about stand up comedy?

Absolutely, Dogs have stuffed this whole Stringer saga terribly. He is no alter boy but worth the risk - if we dont land him as I said earlier wish the boy luck he is an amazing football talent that can be obtained for a relatively reasonable price.

I would ask the leadership group whether it could work - gut feel, that in 2017, that LG would say 'let's talk to him but we don't think so.'

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year.
