With that attitude, the fall will be messy and toxic. Look forward to it!

A poster was asserting black people were getting harsher penalties than white people and using May getting off quite lightly as an example.
May clearly has problems with managing his behaviour while drinking, and even before that point by deciding to drink when in concussion protocols.

Some people can handle smack talk, some people can't and then there's others that get offended by the clouds moving.
Working environments shouldn't be the place to test out who is what, being at work talking smack about someone's football team or at a private dinner talking about someone's work performance!
Saying that, I don't think May is a different person on or off the turps, maybe a little louder, but I think the people around him voice their feelings a lot easier when they get on it!
thanks for the reply. and yes i agree with you, he clearly believes his own hero status!! cheers
you know what, it doesnt matter where you are, or who you are, or what the circumstances, I mean sure if your playing you might sledge a little about your oposing players football whoopsees, but making snide remarks about your own team mates and using humour or i was drunk to cover it is not acceptable. have you ever been left out of a grand final? at any level, let alone the premier league? after so many years of good service, only for a young buck to come in on a mega contract and take a pot shot at you for it? you dont think not playing isnt enough pain to last for life? and just what does May get by his comments? does his dick grow an inch? smack talk like this is just another word for bullying, or in man talk just being a c&*t for the sake of it. cheap laughs from the guys at someones painful expense, i really hate that. and yes actually i can take a joke and i am fun at parties, but i dont like it when the jokes get personal. firstly others had a crack at the guy who organised the event, wow, thats just lovely! what a bunch of arseholes. but then i remember being at the G at a labour day match, Toovey got injured and they got the stretcher out and your lovely fans were chanting "toovey cant moovey"! yeah, real ****ing classy. I was barracking very hard for you guys in the grand final, hate the dogs for a start, but hey 33 years we waited!! all hubbies family are dog fans of the worst kind, my hubby hates footy but is still an arse about it, i saw May and some players having a kick when i was waiting for the pies to train late last year, took a couple of shots of them, (im a photographer) and almost went and said congrats!
you wont get this though, and you can ask Taylor swift why!

New details reported on Channel Nine say there was "significant damage" in the restaurant.
Had to see it for myself, it definitely wasn't just the reception desk. The whole of Greville St looks a little bit different since those pesky Dees did wrestling there.

Just sounds like a shit bloke.
Being drunk doesn't make you a different person to when you're sober. It just takes away the filter.

Does anyone believe Melksham is having surgery for an "infection"?
Infections do not get that serious that fast do they?

Culture killing stuff.
Melbourne are playing ordinary footy, their fans aren't rocking up to games and their senior players are punching on.
Interesting to see how their meathead coach handles the second half of the year.

The AFL is totally at fault here.
They should be providing far more support services to unsuccessful clubs once they get to experience that high.
The Melbourne Football Club is not to blame. Give a 2 year old a Kinder Surprise and they will choke on the toy.

lol. if the AFL ban May for any longer, it brings into question the integrity of the competition. The AFL would love to find ways to make the comp more even. corruption at its finest.

What are you suggesting? He's in for transition surgery?

possibly if he got cut on one of Mays teeth. I collided with someone when I was playing basketball once, her mouth hit my shoulder and the cut on my shoulder got infected. No surgery but still pretty bad infection

Surely this isn't a Melbourne fan complaining about equalisation measures? Surely.
More likely he broke his hand.
Would an infection really get so bad you have surgery within 2/3 days of the (presume) cut?
Edit: I have zero medical knowledge so I have no idea but it seems far fetched.

Nah this is often the case of bites (typically dog bites) that need a "wash-out" under anaesthetic. This is a thorough clean with saline, and looking at structures (muscle, tendon, bone) by orthopaedic doctors to ensure that further surgery is not required.
Repeat wash-out's can be required after a short interval if there are ongoing concerns for infection. It is likely if Melk's hand had a nasty puncture or tear as a result of damage from teeth that he would need one of these. He is most definitely getting antibiotics in the meantime, but given the volume of bacteria in a mouth these wash-outs are often needed.
