Richmond will be handed a second offence breach. Will cost them a staffer or coach next year with a fine of up to $100K which goes into the footy cap. But surely CCJ and Stack have forfeited the right to play again this year.

Richmond's latest- & far more serious -COVID breach has rival clubs worried the AFL is going to lock them back down as per transition hub rules (no leaving hotel etc). Queensland Gov will also have a big say in it. This isn't a day spa visit or a hit of tennis with Alicia Molik.

Stack was definitely in the kebab shop. Outside the adult club. See @7NewsMelbourne for updates and pictures. The approximate time was 3.20am

Stack ordered two lots of two kebabs. His card declined and he was quite aware according to the shop owner. Certainly not necessarily drunk according to shop owner

It appears from vision a drunk bloke repeatedly sets upon Jones.

Stack diffuses and attempts to contain the fight.

Tigers pair didn’t physically start it.

If they went out for a pie I'd be furious. Slightly less annoyed due to Kebabs being the reason. Kebabs are amazing.

Go the Tiges.

I work in Africa and they were taking the pee out of me for saving Africa.......

Tigers pair about to face AFL integrity interview. Breach would involve uber use, strip club attendance, fight with police involvement, deceiving club, putting teammates at risk, putting the code at risk. Full box and dice really

Depending on how true the reporting is I'd suspend both of them for 12 games (club imposed) next year. 
Not sure if Stack is contracted. 
They probably should both be sacked if we're serious

that is your problem right there.


I hope that is just a poor typo on your part Frankie

You quote me and then typed "that is your problem right there"

Which implies it is MY problem  >:(

No it's not, it is the Club's

And regarding what's happened

Will wait until the investigations are complete

Will keep my views to myself for now

Now back to my Chinese food  :shh

is balmey still up there or what?

Balmey has never been up in QLD

Unless he went up on Tuesady he is in Melbourne

This has been our single biggest stuff up this year.  Someone has needed to crack the whip multiple times and he hasn't been there to do it.

I think thats the general "your", thats the way I read it not the specific your.

haha not a typo, but your in a general sense. Definitely not directed personally at you WP :thumbsup

my point stands and to leave Balme out of the hub, at a time when a wiser head is required, is the worst decision i've seen from the club in years.

Vision shows a drunk guy pestering CCJ who get up from sitting down to engage in a fight. Looks like Stack defended CCJ a few seconds later. Not great footage but you can see what happened.
Should not have been in this position but i am hopeful the club will support both players. Both are contracted next year and are worth supporting!

Just heard on the 2pm news that club not only faces a fine but the loss of premiership points

anyone can dress it up as they like but the club has made a massive mistake in downgrading balmes role to some rubbish aflw crap.

His leadership around the place can never be underestimated

Spot on.  As I said yesterday a lot has gone wrong at our club since he was sidelined at the start of this year. He should have been in the hub from the start.  Stupidity that he isn't
