Imagine the personality traits that would lead a person to be a police officer, politician, real estate agent and an AFL player agent...

    Interesting character.Ā  According to his Wikipedia page:

    - He was stood down as a police officer after failing an integrity investigation

    - He had a sketchy career in politics, including squibbing out of a debate on industrial affairs and got Hockey to debate on his behalf

    - He was forced to withdraw from contesting in the 2010 federal election after he was charged with impersonating a police office

    - The incident of impersonating a police officer came from when he threatened a witness in an assault case against his son - the phone call was made from Parliament House when he was a sitting MP

    I reckon he would have also moon lighted as a Justice of the Peace, a Marriage Celebrant and ran bus tours.

    Loved watching Byron Pickett play - whether for Port, NM, or us. Just great to watch.

    Ā 

    And I thought Lachie Hunterā€™s bump against Collingwood was straight out of the Byron Pickett textbook.

    And Eddie McChins was complaining like a stuck pig about the bump on FC and even tried to turn it around by claiming the Collingwood player desisted from turning it around on Lachie Hunter.Ā

    Byron - the ā€œgutless n!ggerā€ as some bloke called him at the Gabba - Back in 2006. I couldnā€™t get him thrown out of the QCC members and was fuming. My mate explained "we are in Qld - get used to it.".

    His mates had to restrain me from taking it further (not physically) and apologised on his drunken behalf. I spoke with several QCC staff - they did nothing. Unforgettable!

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
