And to think Rhys-Jones used to have a ciggy at half time and Lord knows what else afterwards. https://www.carltonfc.com.au/news/2019-05-28/club-statement-dale-thomasEddie was defending Daisy this morning, if only we had a leader like him.

Re: Daisy in strife Reply #31 – May 28, 2019, 07:38:51 pm Quote from: PaulP – on May 28, 2019, 07:34:37 pmMy issue is with the punishment rather than the rules. In my view, we have a tendency to go overboard with these things. He's been a model citizen for ages, why not just give him a warning ?The other thing is who is actually being punished ? We have no seniors as it is. Why leave him in the magoos when we desperately need a win. I think we punish ourselves more than any individual. There's some fine tuning required to how we deal with these issues - too draconian for mine.The rules will be in place, most likely so will the punishments. In any event, setting an example of what can happen to a senior player, will make sure that everybody knows what is required and that nobody is exempt. Quote Selected

We are the worst run club in the country.Not sure about your last sentence, but this "high standards" business needs some tweaking. We seem to be more concerned with showing the world how "professional" we are, but it never feels like we have each other's back. It feels a bit like hanging people out to dry. I also wish we had someone like McGuire. Quote Selected
Re: Daisy in strife Reply #33 – May 28, 2019, 07:48:23 pm I lived opposite Didak for quite a few years. What he and his team mates got up to on the sauce was unbelievable. No details I'll reveal here. Daisy never attended once BTW.FACTS Quote Selected Last Edit: May 28, 2019, 07:49:56 pm by capcom

He had a bit to drink, at an event for a very good charitable cause, spilled someone's glass, no harm done.

We have to back their judgement as they'd have a much better idea of exactly how much Daisy overindulged.He seems OK with it and is saying all the right things.We're demanding leadership and high standards on the field...I've no problem if the players demand as much of themselves off the field.It's probably as much about the self discipline as it is about the amount drunk.
