Clem Smith altercation

[Thryleon]

Smith may have been king hit and Dustin stabbed the woman in the eye with a chopstick for no reason. Got to love how fans stick up for their own but stick the knife in when it's another team.

Actually, I never really went after Dusty.

Regardless, I don't see the parallel between a 19 year old who had a mishap with another bloke out on the town, and a 25 year old with a fairly colourful array of misdemeanors to his name who should know much better.

In any case, the real question is, why on earth do we expect so much out of blokes who chase a ball around as their full time job?  Some of them are going to be fine updstanding citizens, and others are going to be at best, morons.  The only issue is when they cross the line between what is widely accepted as really insidious behaviour.
