Come on already, it wasn't like this was a Tuesday night piss up at the local boozer. It was someones birthday and a Saturday night which turned into a Sunday morning. I'm not saying what they did was right, everyone knows it wasn't, but they were out celebrating a birthday for petes sake.

Neither have been charged and were actually the victims of an assault. For celebrating a birthday. Their crime no doubt was being out so damn late in the first place. They are young, its someones birthday, its Saturday night, it doesn't take Einstein to see where this is heading ...

Then for whatever reasons they got themselves into trouble with some undesirables (this I don't blame them for - and yes, IF they weren't out in the first place, blah blah blah) its still something for which I am grateful that neither of them, or the offenders were seriously hurt. Though a broken eye-socket is serious its not life threatening.

The final crime came when Robbo thought he'd duck'n'cover the issue (he's pretty funny really, trying to pull it off in the first place) and has got himself well and truly in the poop big time.

I like Robbo, I do think he's a bit of a goose, but he's young and some take forever to grow up. Malthouse alone would be punishment enough for Robbo to face. Seriously. Malthouse as pissed as pissed gets in your face ripping you a new one. That should be Robbo's only punishment on top of the penalties already handed out. Let Malthouse punish him as Malthouse and the leaders of Carlton think appropriate, but for heavens sake don't send the guy packing his bags?

Its Robbo! :donk:


Agree with Idle. Chill out everyone. Geelong not getting rid of Johnson 6 years ago and instead suspending him and giving him an earful from teammates etc turned out pretty well, I'd say.

Judd on OTC foxtel as special guest announcing hes playing on.
Judd says there's a role for Mitch and jeff in 2015.
They went out and got bashed.
It's that they both lied that irks everyone.
It's a hard gig and plenty to lose as a player.

I've got no issue with Judd saying there's a role for Mitch and Jeff in 2015. They've got to want it though, and show that they deserve the trust to take that role on.

They are still kids. That what kids do. But kids can still play good football.
The issue hasnt been ignored and has been dealt with imo fairly. The leadership group will give them a serve and it wont be repeated. It sends a good message to the rest of the playing group as well.
