The language used in the article is much better controlled than we have allowed.  Particularly the rhetoric surrounding what happened.

There is a point of difference the incidents have.  Hodge was fined by the police,  and suspended so he had external punishment to go with it, and he was suspended from playing at the time of his indiscretion which means he was technically not breaking their team drinking rules.


Daisy seems to have.

I have really mixed feelings about it as I both agree and disagree with the outcome which means its probably ok.

I'm not sure teams think it's ok to hit the turps if you've been rubbed out. He's already done the wrong thing by being suspended, and the drink driving was a 2nd wrong thing. In my view, it's worse than Daisy's situation. I'm also not sure that "the Police have already punished him" line is valid. If that was us, we would have punished way beyond a fine in my view.

This is how it's done. Did Daisy even drive home, or did his partner drive ?

Just like Fazzy boy's off season antics. Once a toothless feral, always a toothless feral.  :P

I reckon the many would prefer having one of our in form senior players alongside them helping to win the match.

BTW Daisy's form has been much better than just about anyone else in our team (Captain aside) and if they think that some hack like Fas or Lang are going to keep him out of the side, then maybe we do need to change the coach.
