Alleged incident at hotel on Sunday night

[SwanSand]

I think this behaviour is not a new one.
The fact that as a senior player you could do this brazenly in the hotel, when the entire staff is staying there and at a time when you were close to leaving Melbourne tells me that this behaviour is probably going on for a lot longer.

Maybe not all but I am sure there would be people in the club who would have known. It just doesn’t add up. This is an indictment on a lot of people along with the players.

By way of an update... Further reporting by C7 News ... it was apparently a slap on the backside that triggered the sexual assault claim.

According to various reports .. there were 9 in the room .. 5 were current listed players.

HUGE !!!!! Destroy their lives

This is getting tiresome. The constant making excuses for their behaviour. Do you think this behaviour is what our club condones? What we as fans want?

I don't approve of the 'boys will be boys' BS at all. Boys will be boys >>> and boys get drunk >>> and boys egg each other on >>> and turn into potential abusers. It's all macho bull@@@@ and it's dangerous.

If a slap on the bum was the extent of the alleged sexual assault, we should see all 5 players playing for us next year and if so, so much for 'destroying their lives'.

If things turn out different, we can revisit but for now, you're bordering on hysterical.....and if you think the club is so 'hypocritical', you can stand by your 'high standards' and barrack for a different team if you like.

Or you can just calm down.

2 AFLW players charged in court on Drug charges, 2 weeks.....

Allegations against 5 AFL players, 6 weeks

So happy we have apologised to a playing group held to a different standard, did the Womens captain pull the male squad aside and take a photo in the middle of the SCG for her players being convicted on drug charges ? I must have missed it
