      Lucky for Lake they dropped the agg burg charge. I'm sinicle the court system will really do the job here. This begs out for a mild prison sentence, but with a good barrister he will walk out. Ex-player or not, this shit can't be tolerated. As for the article ending on poor Brian 'doing it tough' after survivor... How about poor victims of his crimes and poor the countless women who get bashed and many killed from domestic violence in Victoria each year... Maybe these journo's need to come out with police and go to hospitals with women with unrecognisable faces, or even stand around bashed/stabbed dead women to appreciate the wider issues here and end articles focusing on this scourge and not that poor Brian doing it tough after survivor garbage.

        Putting that aside, I hope he sorts himself out.

          ...and if history has taught players anything, it is that you can be the worst kind of off the rails and you won’t be made to be fully accountable for your actions and be welcomed back into clubland/media on good coin ala Carey.

          I bet if Cousins could present as if he could have at least every second day off the drugs he would be special comments on Friday night footy faster than you can say “nothing to see here”.

            Aussie Rules might be the last bastion of resistance to the MeToo movement. I can see Lake hamming it up on Fox Footy or Ch7 in 12 months time, with the studio heads rationalising it as a redemption story.
            Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

              I don't bet these days. But if I did, I bet the farm you're right. Is it too much to ask for some basic standards in our footy products?

                    Well there'd no shortage of sycophants who will be ready to kiss his arse on that network in particular.

                        I met Daniel Pearce tonight. I wasn't expecting to see him, but when I shook his hand and he said "Daniel", I said "Western Bulldogs Daniel?" Without even thinking about it. He looked straight at his shiftmates and asked which one put me up to it.

                        I had to explain to him that I knew him for less nefarious reasons. He was a nice fella.

                            Actually Daniel is CFA. We were covering their station for a few hours.

                            That being said, recent MFB recruits include Courtney John's, Tayte Pears, Rohan Bail and Daniel Bell. Andy Kellaway has been in the job for quite a few years now. And I'm sure there's a couple more I'm forgetting.

                            We might actually best the coppers this time ��.

                                Given his conditioning issues when he was playing, I imagine he's probably a bit beefier these days?
