Ever asked yourself why Adelaide couldn’t straighten him out, and Geelong not only straightened him out but turned him into a premiership-winning superstar?
If you haven’t, then you should.
I dare say we will be more lenient on RankineThis is why we're s**t
I’m hearing you but the club were trying to muster up a support network. Too late.Oh i see so it was the clubs fault he stuffed up twice how about take responsibility for your own * up ?
3rd chance.He was just plum out of chances.
There's no room for forgiveness in our club. Unless you're a CEO that cheated the salary cap costing two first round picks. Or a fitness guy who injured half the team. Or a board member that tells fans to support another team. Or a recruiter who continually blows first round picks. Or a coach who has a 30 percent win percentage after three years. Or a player who has never been best on after 199 games.
Maybe when you find yourself throwing away your career, you change yourself for the better to even get yourself more fitter....just maybe that's what happened, very plausible conclusion don't you think?
Did I say that? That's just what happen to some individual whereas others decide to go the other way.Oh right, I see.
If anything we're actually to credit for his turn around! Another glorious AFC triumph!
Eddie lived in Melbourne and played for Carlton.Ever asked yourself why Adelaide couldn’t straighten him out, and Geelong not only straightened him out but turned him into a premiership-winning superstar?
If you haven’t, then you should.
It’s simple. When Eddie left. Support dried up. Noticed too late.Ever asked yourself why Adelaide couldn’t straighten him out, and Geelong not only straightened him out but turned him into a premiership-winning superstar?
If you haven’t, then you should.
We can't compete with the resources on offer at WWT?Eddie lived in Melbourne and played for Carlton.
That is why. Pretty obvious.
He and his family was a massive support for him, which we couldn't replicate.
He has that support now. As he did at WWT.
Doubt Carlton would be too happy Eddie helping a Crows player out like that.
Name another player who has had two drug related issues and had another chance?He was just plum out of chances.

Geelong were petrified of his reputation?Name another player who has had two drug related issues and had another chance?
In your answer consider the treatment of Wayne Carey.
The AFL and the clubs are petrifued of public association with white powder.
Well it’s a melt from many angles for starters.Why are so many melting here? Move on ffs, if we had Stengle we wouldn’t be making finals anyway, well done to him, we are no where near it but in 3-5 years time we will be in with another crack at it.
Rating Lachie Murphy (and several others) ahead of him was a staggering misjudgment. Incompetence.

Eddie and Anna helped out there too. I wonder of him requesting to be delisted was part of being able to get that support.We can't compete with the resources on offer at WWT?
Other clubs will still give these players a chance if they've shown to have change particularly if you had Eddie act as a guarantor but had Stengle stuff up even once at Geelong, he would have been sacked as well. What is it you don't get???Why are you wasting time arguing no AFL club would touch him? We already know it's false.
It was one thing to get this wrong at the time, but try not to be so cretinous that you're still wrong with the benefit of hindsight.
The AFL banned B.Crouch didn't they?Regarding his last indicretion, he wasn’t even sanctioned. That was by the club.
I agree they took a punt.Geelong were petrified of his reputation?
So you can't name one.Why are you wasting time arguing no AFL club would touch him? We already know it's false.
