You really do make it up as you go along sometimes Filth. You know deep down that assualt is a lot different to just being a dick head, so stop comparing him to Fevola.
Jazz if you know something solid that he'll re-sign, please post away and save us all some worry.
Hurls
will be our G. Ablett...if he stays.
- Fact....Hurls assaulted someone who if not for being an Indian, would have been dealt with the system and I urge Stag, and others au fait with the "system' to contradict me. A 19yo pissed stuffs up for the first time and having no "form" and no one is hurt. He has no priors. Whats the going rate for that Stag, Sis, Ealsey, Jimmy or anyone who knows the Justice System? CBO? Alcohol counselling? Would it have been dealt with by now in the Magi's?
How long is a piece of string? Seriously impossible to answer that question without knowing the details of the incident. I first time offender who commits a 'minor assault' is going to be treated differently to a bloke who bashes a guys and puts them in hospital. Now obviously Hurley's assault wasn't that serious but the Magistrate did deem it to be to serious to be dealt with by way of a diversion program.
I imagine that he would now be looking at an adjouned undertaking or possibly a Community Based Order.
Now in terms of him walking because of the way the club has dealt with the incident, I have to find it suprising that you keep referring to Fevola, it there has ever been a worse example of player management by a club than Carlton with Fevola I'm struggling to think of it. Seriously the bloke f***** up time and time again an the club did nothing, they didn't punish him, he wasn't disciplined, he wasn't ask to account for his actions, just just told him not to do it again.
But he did, time and time and time again because he knew there was not going to be any consequence to his actions.
Hurley on the other hand will never make the same mistake again, and if he is so upset by the way his has been treated an the fact the club has punished him for getting on the piss, assaulting a member of the club and bring the game and the CLUB into disrepute, then all the talk about his character is complete bullshit an he can f*** off to Gold Coast if that is the case.
Sworn to secrecy...mums the word and all
