But also... I dont mean to hijack this thread... this is not about me and I sorry if that comes across that way. My thoughts and condolences are towards poor Ashleigh and her family... so let's leave this thread for what its started for and that's her. Thank you.
Thank you... yeah I've had a hectic few years... lost my home... wife and now this... I have my first psychiatric appointment tomorrow in sale. It's fair to say I haven't slept much and always considered myself a pretty tough guy... but that has rocked me. The local community have been pretty...
"She was staying in a hotel near Bairnsdale with her fiance Rod Higgins, who told me she got up at midnight and went out for a walk:
None of that makes sense she was way more than an hr walk from any hotel near metung or bairnsdale....
I never met Ashleigh... but I will never forget her face and it haunts me everytime i close my eyes... i have slept about 5 hrs total since the incident happened at 1am Monday morning.
I dont watch the news and deleted all social media since I broke my neck in 2016...
Just a quick update.
Ive now been released and back at home finally. Still on a lot of meds and unable to work yet but improving each day.
Thank you guys and the football community for all the well wishes, donations and support. With out that i would not have improved as well as i have and...
Unfortunately I've been told not to post any of the details sorry. I wish I could but I will be taking the matter further.
Good news is I do have an appointment with the spinal specialist tomorrow and hopefully get home with a carer in a few weeks! I had a shower by myself last night and its...
I have mate, the report I have seen is laughable and completely inconsistent with the injuries I have sustained... but I guess I shouldnt have expected anything less really.
Poor young fella has done his shoulder ac.
Been rocked by some terrible injuries this year. Wasted chances early and aswood played really well even though the coach is terrible ;)
Im sure the boys will regroup and digdeep next week.
I miss footy so much, and really hurts knowing your done. But...
On another note, good too see some leagues stamping out bad behaviour instead of sweeping it under the rug

In full time care at the moment with rehab 4 times a week. Still very weak and struggling. On way too much medication and not enough sun... everyday is a struggle. All that hard work in the gym has gone. I miss my dogs and its been hard to stay positive. But there are people alot worse off then...
Sorry mate... jarrod o'neil took the best mark this year... i only played 2.025 games this year but was prevlieged enough to see him take one of the best marks in local footy.
Agreed.
Look im probably still a little bit of my face from the meds (i just took my nightly dose)... but are you just putting blokes (from the bottom sides) in based on times in the best? I reakon the best players from those sides would struggle to make the seniors at Mount or Doveton. Just my...
...your words so ill give you guys an update as i have the next 3-4 weeks laying here with nothing better to do.
Yes what i said was true;
"dont f***ing mess with me, do you know who the f*** i am, and what i can do"
This was after jarrod had his jaw broken and number 17 hit me behind play...
The overwhelming response has literally bought me too tears.
Mount Waverley players and members have been fantastic and very generous. I just recieved a text from wilkin which one of the most moving things i have ever been sent.
I thank everyone from the bottom of my heart.
There is a lot of...
I dropped the mark. I paddled the ball forward to keep it in front. I had my head over it and the player ran past the ball and intentionally took me out with his hip connecting my head.
I had my head over it playing the ball and he went the head.
Moments before I told the umpire to take control...
Not sure why certain posts were deleted, but from all reports it was a tough,fair and close battle all day. I know Gough and i would hope he wouldnt have made those comments because he was one of the first to facebook me get well wishes. What jarrod and i went through was no laughing matter. We...
Was also watching this game. Ehills have improved a hell of alot since i last saw them. Moved the ball quite well and had some good outside run.
Ashwood had a couple out that i know of (not sure if that was the case for ehills), and i suspect they will get stronger as the year progresses.
I do...
