    Taking Refuge!!

    FFS!! Is it so hard for people to understand!?! The references to drug use by players has been neither subtle nor clever nor witty. Numerous requests have been made to not make such references on RWO and this policy has not changed.
    Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.

        I made no reference to drug use by players on this occasion. I made reference to my own habits. How the hell can I defame myself?

            You quoted the offending post. If you didn't then it would obviously be way off topic for this thread anyway.

                Trade week's officially going too slow.
                I just checked the link ... still only Acker's ugly dial on the list.

                SOMEONE DO SOMETHING!!!!!

                The suspense is killing me.
                Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
                Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

                    No, you're right - Michael Gardiner is a clean-living, upright, Christian fellow and all threads on RWO stay on topic.

                        No one suggested that...

                            On another note, why do we really need him? Injury-prone (we already have one of them), not far from retirement - why spend $400,000/yr for the privilege of watching him sit on the bench with injury? Gardiner may be off-field a nasty piece of work but we have a reputation for turning those types around and if he's going cheap I wouldn't mind seeing if we could do it again. At the right price far less of a risk than Everitt at $400,000p.a. imo.
                            He makes a good point.....

                            I do recall that Messers Lockett, Hall, Davis, Kickett and even Ball were once considered to be non-team players and to have issues with discipline....

                            I think we have proven that we can teach all of our players to not only play better, but to pull their head in!!

                            And at half the price and with at least twice the years left in him, we need to think about it.

                                Actually, he's only ever been charged with a driving offence.

                                    Is this true? Certainly didn't happen that way for Jade Rawlings.

                                        When Jade went to the Dogs, despite North being his preference at the time, he actually ended up agreeing on a four year contact.

                                        Instead of taking the PSD risk of leaving the state.

                                            How is suggesting a players wears make up considered offensive?

                                            And if you're referring to drugs, then perhaps the player involved shouldn't delve in them if the issue is so damn sensitive.

                                                            So if Hawks do a deal with the Saints, Spida can say shove it & run the risk of the PSD?
