What They're Saying - The Bulldogs Media Thread - Part 4

[ScragCity]

I wonder if this was a tactical leak from Tom Morris to take some of the heat off the May/Melksham drama? He has probably been holding these screenshots all year waiting for the right time to leak them. Hopefully Bevo tracks him down and sorts him out. I wonder what he's doing for work these days anyway? I'm sure his private schoolboy connections helped him land some cushy job he's not nearly qualified for, in which he can continue to objectify his female colleagues.

After his and the clubs apology I’d say it’s done. Nice and quick. Very good.

It's never this simple unfortunately. Morons like Tom Browne will drag it out. More stuff will probably come out.

I hope the club doesn't bend and suspend or fine him.

Precedent has been set at 2 weeks and 25k for Mummy, which is probably fair. Could try and be sneaky and run it concurrently with his current suspension but I gather it’d just cause more heat than it’s worth, campaigners like Cornes and Barrett will be keen to stick the boots in if we give them any opportunity.

 

[Barking Mad]

Nothing to see here, move on. Now if it was Buddy or say jake Carlisle we’d be all over it

 

[Dogs Rule]

The mention of Tom Browne...

'My sources tell me the powder was cut with a credit card, I'm hearing it was a Visa, and sniffed, I believe with a plastic disposable straw from Maccas. You'll see my exclusive interview with the powder tonight at 6.'

Bazlenka has owned it in a social media post. It's exactly what it looks like watch all the sponsors jump off now

Should be suspended for the remainder of the year and hope he losses all of his sponsorships Stipid and self absorbed behaviour from a self entitled privileged kid who needs to learn he represents a football club of 100+ years history that is bigger than him and his social media profile.

I do not care for ease of offence, my enjoyment comes from strategy and defense. We all have our own things we like and mine is dwindling in this game. Even when I watch other teams.

Pretty much becoming as boring as this forum with grown ass babies like immortalmike constantly disliking against people without discussion. Anyway my bad for returning. Ill stick to game days

Calling someone else a grown ass baby whilst having a tantrum is not a great look bro.
Was going to type a response but got busy. Sorry.

 

[Mutt]

OK. Dial it down a notch or two thanks folks.

750+ players on AFL lists… 1 of them who plays for us had cultivated for himself a massive social media profile and sponsorship deals. He has also showed up in way too many social media posts pretty close to the edge. This has been a train wreck waiting to happen for 12 months.
Not too hard to keep yourself off social media when you are pushing boundaries- most players do it. Only the privileged self entitled few who think they do not answer to anyone and are bigger than the rules and expectations and clubs they play for find themselves on the front page.

It is not about not thinking players don’t use drugs - or expecting them not to. It is about expecting they understand what being plastered over social media costs their club and team mates and pulling their heads in.

Bahaha the over reactions of suspend him for weeks is hilarious, the fact that probably 70% of players are out doing this shit every weekend to. As I’ve seen with my own eyes over the years players from plenty of different clubs during the season using recreational drugs. Statements have come out so move on.

We get behind our players if they own up to a mistake. They just need to never repeat it. We were all young and stupid once. He’s not the first and he definitely won’t be the last.

 

[Wocka]

...that'll raise his effective possession percentage.

 

[Optimistic Dog]

All clubs would have drug issues to deal with. I have always suspected that quite a few of players missing with mental health issues are actually drug related. The dogs maybe batting above the average in the number of players with drug issues. Just been one of those years for the dogs nothing going right. Our best player this season gets 2 weeks for head butting and now the drug issue. The fact that it was off season should work in his favour regarding a suspension. To many things not working this season I would think the season is done and dusted for us.

Good point, we do need to support our players but support can look like making them accountable. I am not sure Bailey is supporting his team mates by continuously putting himself in this position. There are a lot of young players at the Bulldogs (Naughton, Cody, English) and players at other clubs that could have the social media profile Bailey has but understand what putting yourself in the public means and the costs to your privacy. Bailey has taken the spoils (advertising contracts) without understanding the consequences of this. He is young and he will make mistakes but players with similar experiences tell us that they pay the price if they are not made accountable (Cousins).

Personally I think using mental health as an excuse is weak. Just own the drug use, majority of people out there are on it.

 

[flipper83]

Clearly Bevo is unhinged and not fit to coach young men.
