It is really important at this moment not to rush to public judgement.
Making specific allegations based on previous history is not appropriate
We may all 'think' we know what happened last night with Elijah.
But we don't know.
I will be  big story and the situation may become clearer as the week goes on...but for now hold fire until we know for sure
What is certain is that there will be pretty intense scrutiny as to why he was allowed to play on.

Feel your pain, brother GTC. At this stage, we're a shell of the club we grew up with and the brunt of way too many jokes.
@Baggers this stuff is self-perpetuating if you let it, you of all people here on this forum should know that.

Want to know what it feels like to have the Colliwobbles, the putting yips, now you do!

The only way through this is to stick fat, the exact opposite of what most are calling for, this is the front line and it needs quiet controlled and undivided unity to move forward step by step.

We can't be the chaotic numpty waging war against opponents and allies alike, we have to be calm, cold and deliberate like the SAS.

Yep. When Rottingwood kicked those early goals in the final qtr and took the lead, we did fight back and could have won it. We did not capitulate. There are obviously some demons we're exorcising and gradually making progress on.

What really concerns me, though, is Rottingwood was ordinary and there for the taking.

But I do think we're making progress. We've had these 'demons' for years and they'll take some conquering. Yep, stick fat.

He shouldnt have been allowed to play and I'm not sure what our medicos were thinking letting him take the field. He must have been displaying symptoms in the dressing room and surely he is one player they would be asking are you right to go. He actually could have got badly hurt wandering around confused and dazed like he was.

Well said, EB1 and I'm sure the AFL will be all over it for an explanation. He was clearly disoriented.

The more I think about out season, the more laughable it becomes. Not only did we capitulate again, we manage to find new ways to shine the spotlight on ourselves and embarrass our club even further. To play a guy whose welfare was clearly compromised is a new low for me. You just could not make this stuff up if you tried. Spare a thought for Ollie as well here, he is watching this from the front row and must be heartbreaking for him.
This!

Can we please park our emotions about Elijah? To me the more i think of it and the vision Ive seen, this is screwing terrifying for that kid. And for the club to put him out and leave him out there in front of 90k, is an absolute disgrace!  As i said previously, I noticed in the first that he didd something odd! Yet hes left on and vilified in the media about having no possessions and having really odd movements! And if I saw it from Row W in the first 10 mins, how the hell did the club let that continue.

And not only that, we throw his brother on the best player in the comp after hes run himself ragged all game, to try and stem Daicos’ influence / which he cant because Daicos was never going to play a complete crap game for his 100th! Now Ollie is getting hammered too.

I wonder if the club did this intentionally, putting and leaving E out there? I just cant see why they did!  I am a hell of a lot angrier about this than the loss!

Ffs!   Poor family! Imagine mum and dad watching this and as you said, poor Ollie on the ground!

Atm i friggen hate this club!
