If it confirmed dump him. Seriously has not learned lessons. There are definite leadership issues at this club

If he can get through another pre-season then he'll be like a new recruit across our half forward line next season.

I'd really think that this is the case - a talent like Harley, once rekindled - is going to come back harder and more resolute than ever. He could very positively assist in the complete transformation of our forward line; in fact, I'd strongly suggest that will be the case. Good china is wrapped well; let's hope that Harley and his recuperation are also well wrapped by the start of the next season.

Maybe that’s where the senior leaders went at 3/4 quarter time yesterday?

So if he’s left the hub (as he’s been told his season is done), and gone out drinking, which would be perfectly acceptable for end of season, how is this a problem?

You buy memberships, attend games, donate money. We have been terrible for 60 years yet we have guys like this carrying on. If it true there should be no second chances. Culture is a big issue at this club

The season not over why is he being let out

Because the whole point of a hub environment is you don't leave the hub then come back in.

Assuming it’s true, he clearly doesn’t have the professionalism required for AFL footy.

Both parties gave it a shot, we move on.

Even if he was re-signed for a year, I wouldn’t confidently have in our best 22 due to his injury issues.

Delisted?

Otherwise it is not a smart choice.

Seems like it may end up being a parting of ways. From what posters have said, the coaches wanted him to find the extra 10% effort and trust his body but Harley just couldn’t do it.

Not sure he will come back from here and it’s an easy out for the club

Ralphy just said on Fox Footy that Melbourne pretty much have a 1 year contract for Bennell

Until the facts come through, hes a [censored] spanner.. 

Have players not learnt anything after the Richmond situation?‍♂️

Didnt he promise the club no drinking in one of the To Hell and Back Eps?  Its just monumentally stupid. How many chances do you want?
