I think it covers the other cars so the people get there money straight up, then the insurance would probably sue him i guessThe edge is not the limit, It's just the starting point...Comment

His insurance will pay for the damage to the other cars, but he wont be covered and will have to fork out (pay his insurance company) for all those damaged, no premium or anything just cold hard cash."We talked five times. I called him twice, and he called me twice." :confused: :confused: :confused: :D

The thing I find crazy in all this is the fact that the Collingwood club official seem to think that lying to save the reputation & career of a team-mate is deemed as far worse than drinking & driving & potentially injuring either themselves or somebody else. This to me indicated how much of a power freak Eddie Maguire is, because news that embarrasses him after the things he said about 'scaly friends' on Monday is seen as more damning that the fact they were out drinking in the first place.
To me this whole saga shows how much power & authority Eddie has in the way the club is run. He can wholly & solely make decision on behalf of the whole football club & nobody dares stand in his way. What sort of democracy is that!He huffs & puffs in front of the media on the Monday as if he were spruiking a bloody game show. By ranting off the cuff rather than thinking about what he should have said & trying to keep things in-house, he has made comments that make him look more the fool than he was originally.
And then when he has been made a fool of by Shaw lying to him, he trots poor Gary Pert out to face the music. Pathetic Eddie! He is a president only when it suits him. Weak as piss Collingwood!
Say what you like about Myles Baron-Hay Paul Roos the Swans leadership group & its Bloods culture. But you compare the way the Swans dealt with the Barry Hall saga & compare it with the soap opera you see at the Pies at the moment.
When a player lying to a CEO is considered worse than driving at .14 5 nights before another big game of footy, you know there is a seriously warped cultural problem at the Lexus Centre.
Collingwood, you are officially a disgrace!

Love the anger JF, exactly how I felt when I posted earlier in the week about the disgust in the abhorrent disregard for human and social values demonstrated by these players & as it turned out the Collingwood Football club. I'm a parent, and if one of these idiots had hurt a child or some childs parent, which could have happened...no need to go any further (the mod would kick me out)
I actually think that the subsequent suspensions resulted from a rethink, rather than because of the "lies." They knew that the initial fine wasn't enough, and I also reckon that they knew about the Didak connection but hoped it would "go away." So the sanctions are about community appeasement because they (eddie & co) couldn't organize themselves to communicate the issues properly, publicly."We talked five times. I called him twice, and he called me twice." :confused: :confused: :confused: :D

I don't agree that the Pies rate lying over drink driving but I definitely do about Eddie's rant.
I wonder what is going on with Eddie that would force such a slick media person to be lured into that ill thought emotive barrage.
He must be so embarassed. What I found bizarre is that before the Didak link came about he was furious at "the so called friend" of Shaw's that let him drive. It was almost as if this wasn't really Shaw's fault that he made a choice to drive, get pissed and then drive home. Then following that up with a massive sledge at club's with leadership groups like Swans and Cats (guess who has a premiership) was bizarre.Comment

Amazing scene when you put it like that. The disturbing part is that Heath was .14 by the time the sobering incident had occured, the police arrived, the delays at the scene, the trip to the station, the mandatory 10 minutes and then the final test showed .14.
Imagine what he would have blown as the keys turned the ignition...0.2 maybe?
The final "decision" to drive from the hotel is another interesting one. Must have been pretty desperate to get somewhere!
The first error was driving to the hotel. The second was to drink knowing the car is outside. The last error...well thats obvious.The Pain of Discipline is Nothing Like The Pain of DisappointmentComment

How much do you have to drink to show a .14?Comment

If you killed someone whilst driving drunk you'd not only have lost your job but would be considered a murderor. There are more important issues here than Eddie's bruised ego.
I hope some people remember Darren Millane & Ben Alexander.
It seems Eddie's ego is so big that people are being blinded into a warped sense of reality in all this.

- RWO Forum Rules (PLEASE READ FIRST)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your posts may be deleted, without warning or notification at moderator discretion, for breach of any of the RWO rules set out below. If you have any questions or concerns about post/thread removal, please feel free to PM a moderator or Email us at [email protected]
Do not post your queries on the main boards. Such posts WILL be removed, without further explanation.
Constant breaches of the rules will result in your access to RWO being reduced as the Moderator / Administrator group see fit. RWO uses the vBulletin Infraction System to deal with breaches of the RWO rules. All Infractions have an expiry date. Such an expiry date may be as short as 10 days or as long as 6 months. Multiple infractions, depending on the number of points a member accumulates, WILL result in temporary bans from the site and CAN result in a permanent ban. Please note that some Infractions have an expiry date of "Never" and WILL result in the RWO member being banned from the site immediately.
1) Signatures / Avatars
Keep signatures under 4 lines of standard sized fonts (if you must use large fonts, use just one line) as a courtesy to all users who read the forums.
Do not use signatures / avatars as an opportunity to make jibes at other forum members. This will be considered to be sniping (refer Rule 6 below). You may not refer to another RWO forum member, or quote anything they have written, without permission from that member. Using an anonymous tag does not make it acceptable. If quotes are not removed, we reserve the right to remove them, without notification. If in doubt as to whether something is acceptable or not, don't use it!
2) Spamming
Advertising for personal commercial purposes is NOT permitted. Placing links to sites that other users may find of interest / personal websites is acceptable within reason (ie constantly posting links will be frowned upon).
3) Deliberately avoiding the RWO swear filter
RWO is a site that is accessible by Swans supporters of all ages and walks of life. A swear filter is in place to mask offensive words and phrases. This swear filter contains offensive words and variant spellings of offensive words to stop you from deliberately avoiding the swear filter. Do not attempt to avoid the swear filter through alternate spelling of offensive words. Do not attempt to avoid the swear filter by devising systems to fool the swear filter in its recognition of offensive words.
4) Inappropriate Language / Excessive swearing
RWO is a site that is accessible by Swans supporters of all ages and walks of life. Moderators will let some minor cases through. Anything deemed to be of poor taste or of an offensive nature may be removed at moderator discretion. Consider all members when posting; what you think is funny, not all members will feel the same way.
5) Trolling / Baiting
Deliberately posting on threads in an attempt to stir / bait other RWO users will not be tolerated.
6) Flaming / Sniping / Abuse / Insulting other members
If you have to have a go at someone personally, take it off the boards. Everyone else doesn't need to see your hissy fits. Remember, "Play the ball, not the man". This includes spouses or partners. If you don''t like a post, don't flame, snipe, abuse or insult in response - it makes the job of moderation much harder. Report the post through the forum reporting mechanism (click on the Triangle with the exclamation mark) and let the Moderator / Administrator group deal with it.
7) Legal issuesa) The Moderator / Administrator group will keep a very close eye on threads discussing rumours or anything that could be potentially libellous. Moderators and Administrators are not interested in the chance of legal action regardless of how small - if deemed that there is ANY threat to RWO potentially, we will come down hard on it.
b) Due to potential issues of copyright infringement and the potential legal implications, posting of complete articles is NOT permitted. If necessary, post a link to the article. Where appropriate, you may quote sections of the article to aid in discussion.
c) Due to potential issues of copyright infringement and potential legal implications, posting of links to "live streaming (of AFL games)" and "AFL content" sites that are not AFL endorsed is NOT permitted. Posts with such links will be removed immediately and infraction points will be issued.
d) Freedom of speech does NOT = freedom to slander
8) Racial / Sexual Discrimination / Villification
It is not acceptable for members to engage in racial and/or sexual discrimination / villification. It is not acceptable for members to use terminology in describing race or gender in a derogatory manner. Discussing and disputing the views and opinions of other posters is acceptable. Personally vilifying or abusing others for having certain characteristics, or being a member of a certain group (or because you think they're a member of a certain group), is not. This rule shall apply to any post attacking race, skin colour, ethnic background, gender and sexuality.
