Rumour Cyril Rioli, his wife and Kennett

Sorry Felicity, you could argue if the game meant so much to Cyril that he'd have proved his fitness a week or 2 before this match.

Shaun's his favorite player, he would have loved to play that game

My bad getting the spelling of Shannyn's name wrong.
On the Kennett stuff, I know your view of him so I'm not surprised you want to put this all on him. I'm not defending Jeff I just don't think he's the reason why Cyril retired.

You do not know my views on Kennett and I did not put it all on him.
Of course you are defending Jeff.
Have another attempt at reading my post.
Have a look at the timeline.
Have a look at Cyril's reaction to a big Jeff hug after a Geelong triumph and tell me he liked it.
I would not be surprised if Jeff was the last straw. That is all there is to it.
Reckon the truth will surface, then again Cyril is a gentleman.
Actually thought you were one.

Do you honestly reckon someone would forgo over $1m in salary, and walk away from his team mates he's played footy with for over a decade because of a comment an old man made who later apologised when he was made aware that he'd caused offense?

Yeah I do

Not many people like your president

Most are sick of his attitude and most don't wanta put up with his crap

Includes your coach

 

[StCicatriz]

This is the tweet. Thank me later.

 

[Great 2008]

If this is anywhere near true Shannyn and Cyril should have a glass of cement and LANGUAGE WARNING.

 

[TheFourPillars]

WTF is this... A comment about pair of ripped jeans wasn't the reason Cyril retired. Its ppl trolling as bloody usual.
God this place shits me sometimes or should I say most of the time.

 

[GetDimmaBack]

so we have confirmation and you still stick to their guns. man humans are stupid.

Doesn't matter whether it's true or not.

Barrett needs a smashing...

 

[Holy Rioli]

A footy club is more than just one player, one coach, one president or one fan. I'd absolutely believe it is possible that Jeff offended both Cyril and Shannyn to the point where they were both very angry. But a person does not walk away from everything over an incident as minor as this. Cyril has too much respect for his team mates, his coaches, and everyone that has helped him become the player and man that he is to walk away purely because of this.

 

[Holy Rioli]

This is the tweet. Thank me later.

Is Dean Rioli Cyril's uncle?

Is Dean Rioli Cyril's uncle?

No but, and I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong, in indigenous culture the titles 'uncle' and 'aunty' aren't strictly reserved for those who are actually blood uncles and aunts. There's enough of an age gap between the two that maybe that's how they refer to each other.

Dean also has form for tweeting before thinking too so there's that.

 

[Beerfish]

Also, whilst this incident where Kennett was rude and derogatory to Cyril's wife clearly wouldn't be THE factor that sparked his retirement I don't think anyone can state with certainty that it wasn't to some degree a contributing factor to his overall feeling that it was time. I mean, who needs that kind of shit?

wow threatening physical violence because of what he says

all class

While Cyril may refer to Dean as uncle when addressing him - Dean would not refer to him as his nephew and those close to Dean would also know this.

And while he may have form for speaking without thinking this would not be one of those moments

That’s not to say that some other family member other than Dean forgot that when typing the message

lmao

Throughout Richmond’s finals run, Daniel Rioli has regularly sought the company of Dean and Cyril, his family and footballing elders. Although they are technically cousins, Daniel calls both men uncle.

“He told us they were quite similar and he wasn’t wrong was he? I know Cyril was very proud to play against his nephew.”

 

[AcuteWhistle]

Whateley in a roundabout way suggested Kennett is a misogynist when he had him on his SEN show a few months back & didn't Jeffy lose the plot for a couple minutes. If the comments about Cyril's wife are only vaguely correct, it's just typical Kennett - there's often no disconnect between thought & speech especially when it comes to women it would seem.

& as suggest above, of course it wouldnt be the reason Cyril retired but coping shit from a big smoke w***er like Kennett would make home look all the more appealing.

 

[Wesley2]

Amazing how many Indigenous experts as well as Rioli family experts there are right here on Bigfooty, why the hell wasn't the story broken sooner?

 

[Darkyprotector]

KENNETT

Lot of power , lot of clout in this town

He has form with the players FROM HIS PAST STINT and most cross the street to get away from him

Your right this episode wasn't the cause


IT WAS THE FINAL STRAW

Maurice Rioili junior is Daniel Riolis uncle, even though Daniel is older fyi

[Milanista28]

Plenty of mayo in this story I think. Wouldn't surprise me though as this sounds like a Kennett thing.

Agree. Bit like the Fevola of the business/corporate world.

While undeniably talented is Kennett worth all the trouble he brings?

 

[BBC1967]

Which club Presidents constantly put their foot in their mouth over matters like this? One comes to mind well before Jeff K.....

 

[Socrates2]

Kennett has always been a prick.I wish ge would eff off out of footy the guys a campaigner who treated Victorian workers like crims.

 

[Socrates2]

Shouldnt be political campaigners in football.Eff off Jeff campaignerit
