No it was not. The club did not fund it. It was a group of work mates on a holiday. From memory there was guys not from PA on the trip as well.
Itâs awful what happened, but shit like that happens every week on the Gold Coast or in New York or in Vegas.
Young men do stupid things. Banning them from going out with their mates or on holidays with their area is outrageous, and the fucking arrogance out of that cunt ditzy saying he should have a say in what these lads do with their time is exactly what is fucking wrong with the world (and sport in particular). Every cunt thinks they can have a say and control people like footballers
Fitzy talking incredible shit here. Players shouldnât ever go out during the off-season i) because he has a son and ii) their high jinks could damage their âbrandâ. FFS sake.
While I donât agree with stopping these players from going on the piss during the off-season the punishment of a $3000 fine for setting someone on fire seems a little lenient

Unless someone makes a complaint then legally there is really no repucussions.[/quote]
Surely the police can investigate whether or not someone has made a complaint?
Ya but what will happen? The cops will interview a few people, theyâll have their story ready and thatâll be the end of it?
Meanwhile they are making a huge things agin of a Brisbane Lion (as yet unnamed) who abused a lad in a wheelchair during the week while pissed. He called him a retard or something. Now obviously itâs morally out of line and just makes the guy look like a scumbag, but is it necessary for all the attention? This guy has made a complaint, to who I donât know (cops or club?). As someone who grew up with a wheelchair bound person there is no way in the world we (or he would) would make a complaint of any sort. I seriously doubt anything would have been said were it not a professional sports person.

Completely. Wheeling a guy around in a wheelchair is hardly outrageous. As for throwing a kebab at him? What makes the man in the wheelchair any less entitled to have a kebab thrown at him?
Are you suggesting people in wheelchairs are different and should be treated differently?
