Did our club strong-arm the accuser so they withdrew their complaints?

FWIW, Mr Chopsticks
It seems to me the disparity in the way some players and clubs get treated in the media just washes right over many fans like a passing fart! Until our club gets serious about addressing these apparent disparities our players will continue to feel like imposters in the AFL system, and that goes a long way to explaining their performance, lack of development and lack of heart!
If I remember correctly, the Chopsticks Affair took place in the off season.
Many players from other clubs have been exposed in the media for drinking in public; Tex Walker having a beer during a game while out injured springs to mind and Steven May was sprung earlier this season. Hawthorn’s failure to suspend Luke Hodge was widely criticised and his subsequent suspension for missing training was interpreted as making up for the lenient penalty.
I think that Daisy’s misdemeanour is magnified by our win-loss record rather than any media bias.
