He lives in Northcote?  No wonder he has climbed into the bottle, it is a wonder he hasn't been murdered by some man hating she bear for keeping the sisterhood down beneath the glass ceiling, while all us high flying men live it up large and have it all handed to us on a platter!

With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...

A gregarious bloke sober, he becomes reckless and a risk-taker when drunk.

"I'm not an alcoholic," he says.

"I'm someone who enjoys a drink too much and when I do I make mistakes.

"There's a big difference between an alcoholic and someone who binge drinks. A massive difference.

"Alcoholics rely on alcohol all the time. I just enjoy it, have a good time, and that to me was alcohol."
Fev mark II with those lines.

The Club is being extremely tolerant given this wasn't the first long-term suspension. Also explains why he wasn't in Arizona.

Sack him.

You would be better off with Fev on our list rather than this bloke.
Will never be a star even if he did behave, might as well go and misbehave.
Hardly going to be a match winner, so why keep him

Actually he reminds me a bit of Zantuck, could be anything and can play on his day, just needs to have more of those days and get his off field shizen together..

Interesting to hear from all of the teetotalers in here, good on you, I hope your lives are perfect, your white picket fences are nice and bright and your Ford Territories are running beautifully. IMV, if you haven't had a mild alcohol problem or at the least a very fond affection for your liquor during your 20's, then you haven't lived. It's just a phase, a 5 year one admittedly, but he can pull through it, only question is has he left it too late because the door was open for a 20 game season last year and he's ended up only playing 3.

If it doesn't work out for him this year he will be a much bigger waste of talent than Zantuck was WAT

True DC everyone likes a drink when they're young but some handle it better than others and some are just lucky they miss the potholes.

However no doubt some I've met just shouldn't touch the stuff as they go nuts. It doesn't seem to agree with Dan.

Now that the decision has been made to keep him I hope he gets it together.

Jackster should mentor young Dan (seriously).
Best case, the penny drops, Jackster gets to gloat on this forum, worst case DC reforms if only to have the club take out an intervention order against the great man being within 5kms of him.
