He went to stop the discussion and said lets gather all the facts before we go too far.
Here is an opportunity to unify the club and players, lets see if the executive is smart enough to stick fat!

Good onya Daisy.
What an upstanding contributor to society.
Every $ in the charity bucket aims to support those in need.
Pretty sure the 'actual' story could go something like that.
The rest is uneventful. Move on if that's possible.
Imagine what garbage the supposed scoop would have been without Juddys intellectual prowess.
Joke

How many times have they received similar info about Dusty and said nothing, even in his premiership year?
You'd think in a year where Dusty was in the hunt for a flag it was an even bigger sin, not a forgivable offense, but it got crickets from Caro and the AFL media!
Caro and Hunchy excel at kicking people in the gutter, nothing more and nothing less!
In some respects this issue will blow up because Judd shows some inexperience, he should not have made a value judgment on air! That's all you will hear now for the next 24/48 hours!

I tend to agree. I think that comment about "failed the stupidity test" is a very poor phrase, and feels almost like throwing Daisy under a bus. That's precisely the sort of thing that starts the process of dividing clubs.
One thing I've never liked about Judd is that he keeps things at arms length, a certain aloofness. You never really feel like he's one of the troops.
IMO, the best media performer at our club is Bolton. Followed by Silvagni (not polished, but won't be bullied or steamrolled) followed by Judd, then Lloyd and the Judge. Liddle I haven't heard enough of.

Maybe I'm naive, but I can't see how this is a story if all he did was have a couple of glasses of wine and spilt some blokes drink? Si there more that we don't know about?

Yes, if everything that happened is what we've been told, then it's a big beat up and and a complete waste of time.
Was there something else ? The club seems to be taking its sweet time issuing a statement............
Re: Daisy in strife - Jack Burton - 05-28-2019
Statement issued, Daisy playing VFL this week

Yep. What a hullabaloo over not much. And to think Rhys-Jones used to have a ciggy at half time and Lord knows what else afterwards.

Re: Daisy in strife - kruddler - 05-28-2019
I've gone in to bat for daisy more than anyone on this site i reckon, but i'll back the club in on this one.
Why?
He lied to the club. He said he only had a couple of drinks, when in reality he was probably pretty sloshed.
Even if it was just a couple, not ideal, especially in public. But its the lies he told the club that are the big thing for me.
I backed the club when they ditched Robbo, for the same thing, and i'll back them now. You have to set the standard. You have to be held accountable.
Kudos to the club for making a stand. Daisy will learn from it.
I think the timing of this is either 'worst possible' or 'perfect' depending on if you are wearing a tin-foil hat or not.
Let me explain...
Worst possible timing because we need every senior player we have for this week in a winnable game against the old enemy.
Perfect timing because the club might find it harder to sack Bolton if he wins.

Surely you mean "if he loses"?
