Is ranking the severity of various scandals to try and lessen the heat on us really appropriate?

No. Hawthorn being s**t doesn't absolve the AFC.

Yes. Fun, too.Is ranking the severity of various scandals to try and lessen the heat on us really appropriate?
That’s a weird take. We could have kept Greenwood, Keath, Hartigan, Crouch and Stengle if we wanted to.Absolutely. Like it or not - we are in a direct competition with 17 other clubs in a league where there can be only one winner. Other clubs doing worse things than us is beneficial to our club.
Brisbane (Cameron), Melbourne (Lever), Carlton (McGovern), Gold Coast (Greenwood), Hawthorn (Hartigan), Bulldogs (Keath), Geelong (Stengle), St.Kilda (Crouch) all benefited from the disaster and mismanagement of the camp and terrible culture from 2017-2020.
This scandal will greatly impact three of our rivals (Hawks, Brisbane, North) and I hope we are one of the clubs to benefit.

What were the culture issues when Lever and Cameron left? They left before the camp and went for money and “family”.
You have to look at the reasons why they left though and whether we wanted to keep them. Clearly a number of those we let go because we were rebuilding and didn’t want them on the list for the terms the players wanted. Hell you included Hartigan who we clearly could have kept, same with Greenwood and most of the players on your list except for Cameron and Lever, who both left before the camp.1 player leaving. Understandable. But when we had an exodus of players following the grand final - it speaks to a cultural issue.
Posters continue to look at all these players leaving as isolated incidents when in fact they ain't.
Surely this bloke doesn't have time for paying clients with all his class actions and whatnotAmbulance chasing not without its risks
I wonder if Jenkins copped the 6 grand fee?Surely this bloke doesn't have time for paying clients with all his class actions and whatnot

Lol, Griffin is lucky he is not in North Korea as they would have killed him for the request...
Josh has milked this long enough. Time to move on.
Another instance of someone saying one thing, and doing the opposite .....Jenkins not 2 months ago, saying he'd moved on from the camp, and was happy to leave it all behindJosh has milked this long enough. Time to move on.

He's just a trouble maker in reality
In Josh's words ......he's a Players Man, looking after their interests .....not a Company Man (Club)The split in the playing ranks came from malcontents like Josh who felt his views were more important than the groups

He thought his views represented the Group
Yep, always has been .....it's why he refused to change his playing style, from playing behind ....to being requested to take the front position .....fleeting glimpses of it, after being dropped ....but reverted back soon afterAnd that players name is Josh Jenkins
For someone who has been appalled at the issue of others talking about his past traumas, he seems to be the one repeatedly talking about it and making it more public, which...ironically...is allowing more people to talk about his past traumas.Another instance of someone saying one thing, and doing the opposite .....Jenkins not 2 months ago, saying he'd moved on from the camp, and was happy to leave it all behind

Trauma victim, or using it as fuel to get more attention?
For someone supposedly distraught in 2018, post-camp, Jenkins had statistically his second best average of disposals per match (12.9), and scoring more goals than in 2017. He was actually our leading goal scorer with 46, and Betts was next best with 29.
I honestly can’t think of too many psychological trauma victims (domestic violence, sexual abuse, major MVA etc) being able to perform at their peak after a traumatic event. In fact, Jenkins might be the only one..
Media aren’t all bad eggs. But in this case, I smell bad egg.He is in the media now.
No more needs to be said.
