    A complex character. On one hand he took his life from the penthouse to the ****ehouse .

    Yet while he was at at Richmond he was a terrific support to a young man of my acquaintance who was suffering from severe mental problems

    My Foxtel TV guide says your are correct. Interesting that Channel 7's own social media got it wrong.

    Even the good of heart,  can go the wrong way in they're own life.

    I am sure he is a good person.  simply struggling.

     

    Same could be said of Gablett snr.

    That's fantastic to hear BBO. Watching the show now. The show itself is all over the place (not Ben's fault) with no real narrative arc.....imo

    Really?   (re Ablett)  I doubt that Alisha Horan's parents would agree with you.

    Alicia Horan's parents would beg to differ.

    GAS should feel ashamed for the rest of his life

    Edit. Beat me to it bingers

    I've written this before, how when I stayed at a motel in Mudgee I chatted with the manager. He was a W.A. lad, organising a local rugby match. I said, A W.A boy promoting rubgy. He replied, When in Mudgee you do Mudgee. He then said, Don't you worry, I'm an AFL man. My brother played full back in the first WA Premiership side. It was February, 2018, around the time Essendon was in the news. I mentioned it. He replied, Essendon got sprung. All clubs have a drug culture. He said it was rife at West Coast from Day one. He made mention of a certain player who apparently played in the side as well. He's still involved in the game at a high level, at, shall we say, a certain other club...

    Winning masks or makes a lot of bad stuff go away.  The Club severely failed with a group of young men.

    And so did the AFL itself.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
