Re: Memberships for 2013
wouldnt be the first time a sporting identity has considered or even taken action because of workplace injury.
Wasnt it Joe Misiti a few years back who took on the AFL over the silly rubber disc in the centre of the ground - i think he slipped on it and did some damage

Re: Memberships for 2013
We need to be aggressive on the trade table this year. No player is safe expect Jobe. Scare a few players by offering them as trade bait.
Re: Memberships for 2013
Did anyone else do the membership survey??
I did. Yes...they probably won't change regardless of the feedback given but still rather complete it then not.

Didn't Shaun Rhen bust his knee in on of the first pre-season games and they got rid of it immediately? I think he did sue them successfully.BenDoolan wrote:Yeah, a shit truck from Carlton.

Re: Memberships for 2013
Here we go:
Those are very different to what MaClure is suggesting though, because the league did something that specifically put the players at an increased risk of injury. We've just got a shit fitness program.
http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/ ... 1116239491Former Adelaide Crows ruckman Shaun Rehn took the league to the Supreme Court after he suffered a career-ending knee injury. Rehn was contesting a centre bounce for the Crows in 1999 when he slipped on a rubber disc used by umpires to bounce the ball, and his knee buckled.
Rehn's injury `"had severe impact on his future earnings and capabilities as an AFL footballer'', his lawyer argued in 2005. The case was settled with a confidential payout, which is understood to be significant.
Carlton's Luke O'Sullivan successfully argued loss of income after he suffered a serious knee injury due to the ground's surface, during a pre-season match at VFL park in 1993.
The payout figure is also unknown.
