Seems very OTT to me.
Been to a few of these wine pairing things and 5 glasses would be the equivalent of 2.

Our players haven't earned the right to judge Daisy.

I've never been to one, so can't comment. But when someone like me starts wondering whether the CFC has become too much of a nanny state, you know something's up.
Still seems like a big beat up to me.

I doubt the playing group imposed this, it's a bit ludicrous.

If they didn't we're in more strife than we thought because the statements gone out under their' banner.'

I suspect "leadership group" is a pretty malleable designation.

Club has its rules, if you think they are over the top, then bully for you. The club doesn't have to be accountable to you, but itself. Set the standards, stick by them.
Of course, usually what makes the media is a watered down version of actual events. So who knows if there is more to the story than what we've been told.
Regardless, the best way to get kids to follow the rules is to punish a senior bloke.
Its done, we move on.
Ed Curnow, Murphy Simpson Docherty Cripps
I doubt whether a few of those guys would be happy for the club to make a decision they didn't agree with and then put it out in their name.
It sells them a bit short in the eyes of the playing group.

Cant see us imposing a playing ban to a senior player like Daisy unless it was warranted. Need every available decent senior player we can get on the park.
I bet several eyewitnesses seen him and thought he was intoxicated.. seriously don't believe the story he had 2 beers 2 nights out before a game. Even the bit with spilling a drink over an ex player, then apologising sounds like BS to me.
There is more to this then they are letting on.
