WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL

Featured Replies

Poor choice by Harley and no doubt will suffer the consequences but a lot on here showing little knowledge on how addictions work and how hard they are to control.

No you don’t because I don’t post my every inner thought on Demonland. 

Just because you don’t deem this disease deadly enough for your liking, doesn’t mean that it isn’t extremely contagious, very invasive and does a lot of damage (even without death), and that thousands of cases would see our health care system collapse to the point where loads of people would die for lots of reasons, not just Covid. 

People breaching the rules are selfish flogs. People who think they can visit their family because they feel like it, are selfish and are costing the rest of us our freedom.

We all have to make sacrifices and do the right thing so that we can ensure our health care system can stay as good as it is, and so that we can save the lives of many elderly people, who you may not care about, but who all have families who love them and want them alive. 
 

Support you 100%

It's a Vic thing and we may only be in lockdown for 2 more weeks - but with relaxed integrations the numbers will increase and we'll be back in lockdown again.

Of course he doesn’t. It’s all about him getting dirt published. 
 


So many tut-tutters eager to condemn without knowing all of the facts.

I was just thinking the same thing, people never stop being addicts they are only recovering/recovered addicts. 

It’s still a very disappointing situation to see Harley find himself in, there are a number of ways to deal with this so it’ll be interesting to see which way we go. I wonder if he was with any other players prior to him leaving the hub, if so why didn’t they stop him? 

Second question is Harley’s partner and kid up there with him?

Apparently in the hub with him. Or now they are and he isn't.

Ralphy just cleared up the Bennell issue he evidently confused the Maroochydore hub for pub an easy thing to do after a few schooners.

[censored] lucky if he doesn't get sacked

Yeah sounds like he started drinking in the hub. Ran out of booze, so went drinking outside the hub. 
A bad look all around.

I thought he wasn't suppose to drink he was not allowed. Poor form.

Could someone please explain how the hub rules work...

I was listening to SEN the last week and one of the players was out at a coffee shop getting his regular fix.

Wish I could remember who it was....coffee or beer, either way you're not in a hub.

Regularly frequents the coffee shop.

Surely this is not how it works?

He made a poor choice - we need to support him and give him a chance to redeem himself. I reckon they give him a contract with a clause if he breaks it again. We all deal with stress differently give the bloke a chance.

Nope he has had his chances we extended  a life line when nobody else did he ignored it.  He is the problem unfortunetly he probably doesn't se it because he can play footy so sad.

I say we move on
