Sydney Stack

Was there a hearing? Their livelihoods and reputations have just been smashed. Were they provided with separate representation from the RFC, or represented by the players union, player managers or by Counsel,.Did they get the opportunity to speak to anyone?


Hearing for what?? They broke the hub mate. They are seen outside the hub. This is not a case for Judge Judy, they are toast. The strip joint, punch on,kebabs and police arrest dont even come into it. The 10 weeks for breaking the hub was enough
 
Mr Brightside
So just more gossip. You don't mention CJ but you are prepared to write off Stacky's future because of what you have read in the media.
Give yourself a break.
It’s the Stack thread isn’t it ? So why would I comment on CJ ?

it’s not gossip , as I said earlier I just believe Syd probably dosent have the dedication to do all the things a player needs to do to make it in the AFL , it’s not just on talent alone an I can tell you now I hope Syd makes it more then anybody,it’s a Public forum I can form an opinion on a player however I like , Plenty of players I’ve got wrong , plenty I’ve got wrong . Syd won’t be the first or last young bloke who has struggled with the demands of been in the AFL .

I think it's a harsh, but fair whack.

Having said that (and hindsight is 20/20), it makes the Hunter and Buckley/Sanderson penalties look meagre. Buckley and Sanderson penalties were a disgrace, and not enough was made of it at the time. Two middle aged men, both leaders, both responsible for setting and enforcing standards knowingly flouting the rules to play tennis and they got a slap on the wrist. If the AFL had any balls, they'd have been suspended like the NRL did to Wayne Bennett.

On the bright side, my 7 yo has nailed it.... when he doesn’t play any more, my Sydney Stack Richmond card becomes collectible

I'm a bit surprised at how flippant some are tbh.

mine comes from a place of rallying against the new normal.

I get all the angst. I understand it.

but when you frame it in a 2019 context; 2 blokes look at tits and get a kebab on a Thursday night

it shouldn't be a hysterical situation. In reality, they did absolutely nothing out of the normal.

the 'brawl' is a red herring - it was no brawl, its just what got them caught.

they looked at some tits and ate a kebab 8 days out from a game.

I get times are different, but im just trying to stay the same

Gale was just interviewed on 3AW. You can sense he wanted to rip their heads off.

this could well be the critical moment for stack

goes back home and starts his preseason now and comes back in ripping nick
Tipping point for Syd. I hope he uses this as motivation to be consistently as good a player as he showed us last year.

Jesus guys, you had to go and grab a kebab from a kebab shop next to the only strip joint within a square kilometre radius. What are the chances?

It seems the answer to all questions in no.
Ben Gale was in lockdown and the two players players were kept in isolation from team mates and each other for virus related reasons. The process was pushed through apparently because of comments made by the Qld Premier.
Lee to Raines will have the answer but 10 weeks without an appearance before the tribunal, and without representation for two kids, is unprecedented and imo ridiculous.

Not the first time Syd been in strife
Glad he is leaving the hub
At least now with “ Tik Tok “ man gone players can focus on winning the Premiership

He is 20 years old.
Give him a break.
He went to eat a kehab in a state that hasn't got lockdown restrictions.
Big deal.
