News Welcome to Hawthorn Tyrone Vickery's cats!

[Judd2Sewell]

Can he be sacked if this is serious? As if there isn't some sort of behaviour clause in contracts

Hope so!

 

[vanders]

We don't even know if he's done anything wrong yet. Answering some questions does not equal guilty.

Yep, we don't know if Vickery was involved in anything or just helping police with their enquiries, so better we refrain from any character assassination just yet. It has been reported that he is being investigated, so it doesn't sound good. Footballers have too much spare time on their hands.

 

[Gralin]

Let's remember no speculating on anything that has not been released

 

[Jaeger]

Assisting police with an investigation.

 

[LindaCresLove]

The "extortion" word has been used.

Does this refer to him taking $ from HFC?

 

[MrPremiership]

Wife at Wimbeldon, Ty in the slammer, won't someone think of the cats?

 

[Hawker1167]

Might be our way out of a dud pick up -

 

[The Offerman]

From the wording of the article it seems like Vickery has been the victim of the threats and extortion. He isn't the 33 year old who has been arrested and has been assisting with enquiries.

 

[The Lemon]

This is what happens to naive, impressionable young kids.

Shame

 

[Jaeger]

Guys, on pretty good authority I have been told that it has been communicated to Ty that he will not be playing senior footy again this season unless there is an emergency. Clarko has decided to go with the kids.

This makes more sense now

 

[Billyc]

Can we get out of the contract?

Disastrous recruit.

 

[MinerBoy]

Not much we can do other than laugh at this point

HAHA that's exactly what I did.

 

[burger09]

It's about time

Has a rap sheet a mile long

-impersonating an AFL footballer for financial gain

-resisting skill acquisition

- repeated physical abuse of a sherrin

- psychological battery of fitness staff at two clubs

-as well as countless public displays of uncoordination

The list goes on

Very nice

 

[HODGEYROAD]

Maybe we have hope of this contract being voided, I'm getting excited at the prospect of another 500k in the cap next year.

Without knowing any details of what's going on here, "assisting police with enquiries " is generally code for "suspect".

Fox Sports says a 27 year old man has also been arrested.

Gold!

Seriously, for the guy's sake, I hope he's just assisting and hasn't done anything wrong.

 

[The Offerman]

 

[HODGEYROAD]

Unfortunately it hasn't worked out for Ty but it's not like we recruited someone who's been disruptive off the field and isn't committed to the team. The long and short of it is that Vickery isn't quite afl standard, his skill set is simply too narrow to be a consistent contributor.
If anyone should be questioned it's our list management staff as his output has been what most of us on here were expecting when he was given a contract.

Massive LOL

 

[The Lemon]

Standing over suppliers/competitors

 

[lethalselbow]

The Age have gone with the heading

Hawthorn recruit Tyrone Vickery and former player accused of threats, extortion

 

[Dixie Flatline]

Let's be careful with what we post to this thread, given that there are laws in place to ensure the presumption of innocence that apply to this thread as equally as they would apply to newspapers, radio or the TV. Posts that over-step the mark will be deleted.

 

[vanders]

Different tune to what you guys were saying last year when our guys were being investigated for rape.
