May banned by Demons

[Lampers]

Why am I not surprised that a thread about two Melbourne players punching on somehow morphed into a “Woe is me, it’s so unfair on the Toiges.” discussion?

Stephen Hocking is pulling the strings on this one too I suspect.

I'm pretty sure all clubs have to deal with some internal rifts every week, it's very competitive and stressful to be a full-time AFL footballer, no fan should think that every player in every team is pally-wally. The question is, what was May was doing "on the sauce" in front of teammates? And that is bewildering? This was obviously no verbal stoush, it was a full-on punch-up in a public place. May is very lucky he didn't cop a 6-week penalty from the Demons, something triggered Melksham and now he's out as a result of it?
Monday's game will be very interesting against the Pies, what will be the repercussions if any?

 

[Toump Ass]

Remind me again, who did he lie to? Melksham punches a recently concussed teammate in the head because he said a few little nasty comments … and they get into a brawl and trash a restaurant, but May apologises and Melksham is the victim.

I don’t recall Bolton ever being given ‘victim’ status for punching someone who was engaging in inappropriate behavior towards Rioli’s girlfriend …

What’s worse, punching someone making inappropriate sexual advances to your mate’s girlfriend, or punching a recently concussed teammate who was saying mean things to a teammate ..??

Just weird, that’s all.

you are lying.
Bolton was not fined he donated money to a charity.
Melksham and May will donate time to a charity.
Same shit.

no its the dark/light skin differential treatment that is the issue, and the fact the afl came over the top in that case where this one which is identical at best.

the freo player got the same punishment for simply drinking, without starting a brawl and trashing a restaurant. how is that fair?

So, you’re aware Stephen May is indigenous? Yes?

 

[hoianbulldog]

Clearly Steven May needs to be sacked for his own good

I can see a Brian Lake type future for May.

Just more Toiges coming up with alternative facts to suit their conspiracy agenda.

You mean where Bolton's happened when teams were in COVID Hubs under very extreme restrictions, fortunate to be allowed to play out a season due to the QLD Government, and May's didn't?

I don't think this is going how you thought it would go.

is the person who the the punch and caused the damage (melksham)

 

[docks]

Come talk to me when May is accessed in two seperate incidents for sexual assualt

And what sexual assault charges were laid? Zero.

youve just prooved that you have nfi what youre talking about.

Bolton's incident didn't happen during COVID hubs?

"Richmond star Shai Bolton has been handed a $20,000 fine"

literally the first line in the article you posted.

but theres also this:

Richmond star fined after twist in Tigers’ nightclub fight

The AFL has handed Richmond star Shai Bolton a $20,000 fine after an investigation overruled the Tigers’ decision not to punish their players over a fight at a Melbourne nightclub.

no, youre thinking of stack. also boltons wasnt in qld either

 

[faible]

You are right, I was thinking of the Stack incident, had forgotten the nightclub one.

 

[danster168]

this is so overblown. The guy has a couple of beers when he shouldn't have after 3-4 years of good behaviour.

 

[jaaack]

Melbourne's choice to trickle-truth us about this has caused it to be as hilarious as it could possibly be

 

[FRUMPY]

uh no, the afl fined him. they just made him donate the fine instead of paying it to the afl.

so he gets to claim it as a deduction and pay 47% less tax on that amount.....so basically half a fine

 

[FRUMPY]

So, you’re aware Stephen May is indigenous? Yes?

just not the right amount of colour though, cant you see thats whats happening......according to theyellowsash

 

[Spearman]

May should brush his teeth more thoroughly. Dirty bastard’s clearly got filthy germ infested teeth.

next game he plays the perfect sledge will be..."How's it going Komodo mouth?"

 

[Lampers]

is the person who the the punch and caused the damage (melksham)

Melksham and May got identical punishment for the fighting - community service. If it was a prolonged scuffle with tables getting broken, it would’ve been more than just one punch thrown by Melksham.

May got a week for breaking concussion protocol.

So racist.

yeah righto, clearly more to it than that


also, is good behaviour considered to be "not getting in to a fight with one of your team mates"?...setting a pretty low bar there id say

 

[Bluelegs]

May hasn't come off at all well out of this. Sounds like he was being an absolute prick by all reports. Honestly, I'm glad Melksham stood up for his teammates even if it meant coming to blows with May and creating a public spectacle. Much prefer that and the accompanied media storm than everyone suffering in silence and having those kind of attitudes and ugly banter be normalised within the group.
