Ricky Petterd

With the amount of aplogists its no wonder we've tolerated our crapness for so long. We're either a professional outfit with players who know what it takes to be the best,or we're Melbourne.

Pettard screwed up. Why is it so hard to accept ?

He did what half the competition has done from time to time. If having a beer at the cricket and swearing in public has suddenly undermined our premiership credentials then we may as well sack Dustin Martin, enlist Jack Riewoldt in the clergy and inform Damien Hardwick that he needs to pronounce all his syllables when talking about firetrucks and Karmichael Hunt.

Your still avoiding the main point here. I bet there were plenty of AFL players at the G. But I reckon Pettard and his mates were the only ones in Bay 13.

Big deal, this isn't the 1980's when Bay 13 exuded all it's yobbo charm, you'd hardly even know it was once a hotbed for beer swilling bogans. It's embarrassingly tame by those standards, you'd probably get evicted for picking your nose nowadays.

Heh, yet the only players ejected were the ones in Bay 13 ? Guess they were just picking their nose then.

Its making excuses for our players that's made us the laughinbg stock for 30years. If you think youwould miss that,MFC need supporters. Actually, its telling that it was MFC palyers and explayers. Says it all really.

Wow. Who are you at what you have done to Baloo?

It's true, the only thing in common with the group was the MFC. The big question is what happens if the MFC come down on their players like a tonne of bricks?

Do we look soft? Do we look like the rabble?

What he did, if he did anything, is just icing on the cake of stupidity. Being where he was, when he was, drinking, is enough to question his decision making and commitment. It's put him onto the front page and dragged the club into it. For a player on his last chance he's making some stupid decisions.

Yep. It's telling that the club with the biggest culture problem in the AFL is where these players all played last year.
 
Unbelievable the stance some are taking on this.

For the record it's spelt 'Petterd'.

What stance is that ? I don't see anyone calling for his sacking despite what the apologists are trying to claim.

What's unbelievable is people think Petturd did nothing wrong. If he was an average young male I'd be the first to agree, but he's aspiring to be an AFL Footballer and we've thrown him what's most likely his last lifeline. You'd I'd expect someone like that to make doubly sure career comes first.

For the record it's spelt 'Petterd'.

Petterd, Pettard, Petturd - I don't think it's going to matter much in 12 months time.

There was a couple of Geelong players at bay 13 as well having a few beers.

And what did he do wrong apart from sit in Bay 13 with his mates? He didn't get evicted, he just followed his mates out of the area once Jeromey Howe was given his marching orders, that seems the smart thing to do I would have thought. Can I ask you this, if some feral idiot threw a cup at your head, would you respond using only the Queen's English?

I think I can detect where the animosity is coming from, I can see there won't be any GusBus affection when it comes Ricky Petterd.
