Someone mentioned that the reason Alex Dodson slid in the draft was due to an off-field incident, anyone have any details? Asking for a friend.
It was something that happened on his Year 12 muck up day (no idea of the details, was just told this by someone I know in recruiting on draft night when I queried why he was sliding). No reason to doubt the info either as I was also told his SA teammate would end up going before him too, which he did (Molier to Geelong, who were heavily linked to Dodson for a long time).

Interesting, thanks for the response

Rumour going around that a coach and player got into a physical fight yesterday.

Looks like we know who now.

No way he'd walk otherwise at this point in the year.
Pretty sure he didn't attend the draft last week and Big Cox was heavily involved so if thats the case he had already checked out.

Finally getting some real bad boys back in the squad !!!.
 
Gotta be more to it, surely? He'd have spent shitloads of time over the past couple of months - and recent weeks in particular - planning and strategising around pre season. Doesn't matter how the Swans fans spin it, and I've had a quick glance on their board and they're all saying "it's the right time", this is very, very weird timing.
He was done the moment Sydney disgraced themselves in a GF again.

The reason it took so long to announce was simply a face saving exercise for Longmire.
It's obvious AF.

One of the reasons behind one AFLW team having a shocker of a season is becoming apparent with two players breaking up (neither necessarily identifying as same sex attracted) early in the season after it was discovered one had had an affair with another teammate's sister.
Woohoo

I said MORE.

This sounds like an AFLW membership campaign.

Nathan Burke alluded to this on the Sacked podcast, mentioning that whenever there are teammates that are in a relationship, once that relationship is over one of them will inevitably request a trade or transfer.
Absolute amateur hour stuff, hard to take the league seriously when their resilience is that fragile

How do we know this doesn't happen in the mens game as well?

It might, but it definitely comes up way more often in the women's game. The proportion of same sex preferences appears to be a little bit higher. I know they have talked about it causing issues with the Matildas too.

From my personal observations, gay/bi women are way more likely to take up traditionally 'mens' sports like footy and soccer rather than their gay/bi male counterparts.

On a serious note - Was Jelly and Wrestling involved? 🥸
 
Couple of ancient ones.

Allegedly the early Brisbane Bears players supplemented their income at the newly-formed QLD club by appearing in a number of porno flicks. Whilst I can never testify to having seen any of these myself, I have a close friend who claims that he had once come into possession of the VHS featuring a former-Cat-turned-Bear in some on-screen action. No existing tapes seem to be around.

Also, I had a friend who was playing for Melbourne in the 1980's who alleges to me that on the 1988 Demons post-season footy trip to Canada, the winner of the club's "Downlow Award" was Steve O'Dwyer. His winning performance? Well, apparently coach at the time John Northey was sitting at a table chatting up a young lady in the casino when the pair were approached by a bow-tie and dinner suit wearing O'Dwyer who asked the young lady if she would like her drink stirred. She replied to the affirmative, prompting the big redheaded ruckman to take her drink, unzip his fly, and use his dong to stir the martini in full view of everyone in the proximity, including his speechless coach.



(Note: For the pedants who wish to discredit entire stories because they cannot see one relatively small detail as being plausible, I don't know what type of drink it was)

Oh that’s a big relief / imagine if she asked SOD for it to be shaken. That would be then be going too far 🥸
