This is just crap. If I was Bolton I'd get the players around for a keg and a BBW. Lightening the mood might be good for everyone.

No doubt the paparazzi would come up with some less than flattering "optics" and they'd all be put up for trade, and Bolton would be sacked. After all, the club has its rules.
What would be on offer ? Lettuce sandwiches and a keg full of Grapefruit Nehi ?

Everybody’s entitled to their opinion,but I’d certainly be suspending Daisy
How can it be that a senior player is drinking alcohol mid week??? Wtf is going on. Some players in the VFAA and EDFL are more professional and there’s simply no excuse fir a full time sportsperson.. This is a professional not a hobby and I’d be ropable if I was the coach.

I've thought about this one a little.
The way to work all this out is simple.
Remove the name of said player from the equation.
If ever there was a time for our club to set and maintain standards it's when you're bottom of the ladder.
Re: Daisy in strife - PaulP - 05-28-2019
I think a warning and a fine would be sufficient. It seems bizarre that we won't fly the flag for one of our blokes when they get injured, yet we come down hard on someone for a minor drinking incident at a charity do.
I understand the winds of change sweep through organisations from time to time. e.g the changeover from Malthouse to Buckley. Buckley was keen to remake the joint in his image i.e more squeaky clean, so he moved on Didak and others whom he thought would hinder that change. And clearly Bolton seems more like Buckley than old school coaches. But there is always some discretion and interpretation that needs to be applied when deciding on a punishment. And I think frankly the club has erred.

Then we should also be dropping players who aren't performing regardless of their draft pick number.

Touché!
What's the bigger offense, having a glass of wine with dinner or playing like some have at times in recent weeks?
I haven't noticed Daisy not putting in!

Dane Swan:
I drink at qtr time if I played for Carlton. @DThomas_39 Being unavailable to play is not a punishment imo it’s a reward. I’d ask to be suspended for the rest of the year.

It wasn't just a glass a wine mate.
