The arrogance of that club and all involved is amazing. Continually letting them off or penalising them lightly is partly to blame. A monetary fine won’t suffice in this case.

The Toiges and Pies make up Nuff Nuff Central. It’s time they payed a price, big time.

The AFL already putting their own spin on it and playing it down with the headline. They weren’t “caught up” in it, they were fully involved and subsequently arrested.

Jon Ralph just tweeted "Richmond will be handed a second offence breach. Will cost them a staffer or coach next year with a fine of up to $100K which goes into the footy cap. But surely CCJ and Stack have forfeited the right to play again this year. The details

"Unlucky for the staffer/coach you'd say

Surely some poor bastard isn't going to cop the penalty for two knuckleheads who should already be boarding a plane out !

It's what happens when the club leaves the adults at home...and the kids in charge.

Obviously the message isn’t getting through , perhaps taking premiership points might actually deter this? 
 

Seriously what a bunch of imbeciles

Agree... Balme in Melbourne and how many gaffs by Hardwick and his team.

I'm feckin sick of these COVIDIOTS. Everywhere. Open up a quarantine camp somewhere in the bush and throw them all in together. 

NO mobile phones. I don't want to hear their whinging either.

This.

Premiership points is the only deterrent. What do the players care about a fine paid out by the club? 8 premiership points puts the Tigers battling it out for a finals spot and impacts their peers.

Perhaps the fine should be taken out of the Total Player Payments and not the livelihood of a staffer/coach.

should be stripped of 8 points

Deduct PREMIERSHIP POINTS

The only way to deal with this

They will have to spend an evening with Palaszczuk. Can't think of any greater punishment.

Don't forget Gil is up there as well, double whammy

Interesting test of the so called independent journalists in AFL media.

Nothing obvious on the AFL website 2 hours after the story has broken

I think this incident really highlights the double standards with which the exemptions that the football community has received to be able to move across borders relative to the rest of us in society (except those with money and influence).  It’s actually just plain wrong , part of me wants Anastasia to just pull the pin on this season , morally there is something that doesn’t sit right with me that the afl will find a [censored] way to wriggle out of this like they always do, they treat the public with contempt 

the afl are arrogant, maybe a harsh lesson is required here

just appeared... hours behind the other outlets

Perhaps they needed to run it past their "editor"

Surely Browne’s parents pay Channel 7 for him to work there. He can’t string a sentence together and his grammar is shocking.

So Tom Brown is saying the merchant terminal should really be taking the fall ? 

Propaganda machine in full swing aided by the media. It doesn't matter if they were drunk or not, it doesn't matter who started the fight. The point is why were they out at 3 in the morning in the Gold Coast crook city area. Stop the spin.

Interesting the kebab guy reckons ‘not drunk’. Not sure about others experiences, but I’d find it rather difficult to stomach a 3.30am kebab after a couple of bags at the strippers! 

A police officer once told me nothing good happens after 3 am. And a full moon makes it 100 times worse.

At times I think he's frothing at the mouth to be first that he posts like a dyslexic drunk with a broken keyboard.

Oh come come Deemented you are being far too cynical. I’m sure lots of sober people crave a delicious kabab at 3am down Cavill Avenue , washed down with a raspberry Powerade . It’s just coincidental that the kebab shop happened to be located next to an exotic entertainment venue.
