So what do we do with Michael Gardiner.

Where does gardiner come into it ffs
where is it he is a star mid-fielder whos going to so called win us a flag
and where did i say i had welcomed Gardiner and truth be known
i wasnt keen on them bringing him across, but hes seems to have been a clean skin since although he hasnt strapped on a boot in anger since getting here so my decision is still reserved on him as a footballer
Dont wish for something that may come back and bite you on the ass

GT was the one who wanted to get rid of troublemakers......I doubt Lyon thinks the same way, otherwise he wouldn't have thought about Everitt last year and definitely wouldn't have touched M.Gardiner.snoopygirl wrote:But that's not the point is it Plugger? If we're going to be consistent & get rid of "troublemakers" why would we want the 2 biggest troublemakers currently playing the game? Double standards. Reckon we can do it without Kerr & Cousins anyway. Just need the current batch of midfielders to pull their fingers out, they have the skill.
I hope you're right about our current lot of midfielders, sure, it'd be "nicer" not to have the likes of Cousins and Kerr at our club, well, Cousins is gone, but Kerr would be OK.....Kerr is nowhere near as messy so speak as Cousins.
Kerr though IMO is better than any of our midfielders, and would make an enormous difference to our team.
Give me a flag with some dodgy players than no flag and continual disappointment with a team of worthy gentlemen anyday!

we can distill HGF from massive from moorabin.
while we are at it we can give marion jones her gold medals back, and apologise to ben johnson from canada and say he really is the best!
heck there goes the US Postal team straight back into the tour de france eh?

no they are sports people and sports people operate under a set of rules. Drug cheating is just that, and if they are cheating by doing drugs they should be stripped of their awards.CURLY wrote:There footballers first and damn good ones at that. Let parents be role models these blokes win games for you. After all thats what its about.
or why not give marion jones and ben johnson etc all their medals back because they are runners first eh?
drug cheating is just that drug cheating.
the booze at the end of the season is another matter.

when has harvey EVER been linked to methamphetimes? has there EVER been a cloud over harvey's endurance from when he was 18 to now? what a phukcing insult to harvey.CURLY wrote:He burnt us off plain and simple and then ran us into the ground with superier endurance nothing sinister about it. No differant to what Harvs has been doing for the last 15 years.
linking a declared drug cheat in cousins to a champion like harvey is a disgrace.
if you want to link cousins, pick someone like rasmussen or marion jones.
as for whether he burnt us off pure and simple, you will never know if he cheated or not, and if he DOESN"T have a problem then why bother going to the USA AGAIN for substance abuse treatment

Thats right we will never know you just seem to have these UFO like conspiracy that he took something at half time No one is denying he doesnt have a problem but he hasnt been caught by the laws that governs his sport for what ever reason so to me he is more than welcome at StKilda.Dan Warna wrote:when has harvey EVER been linked to methamphetimes? has there EVER been a cloud over harvey's endurance from when he was 18 to now? what a phukcing insult to harvey.CURLY wrote:He burnt us off plain and simple and then ran us into the ground with superier endurance nothing sinister about it.

Jono hay openly admitted using drugs and said he was never tested or caught.
the AFL can't catch a guy who has categorically been called a drug cheat by the herald sun and ABC in an era of litigation, a self avowed substance abuser, and wasn't tested on the day he played st kilda in any form and you have faith in the AFL drug testing program?
why is heading back to rehab again if he doesn't have a problem?

then why did the AFL threaten to deregister him and WCE sack him?CURLY wrote:He obviouly has a problem we all know that but until he falls foul of the three strike rule he hasnt broke any laws of the game.
use some logic.
IF he has a crystal meth problem, have a look a the side effects and withdrawal symptons.
as well as the effects of a 'hit'
if he DOESN"T have a crystal meth problem, why the rehab?
why did the AFL categorically say ice is not stimulant, when clearly under WADA it is...
sure if he DOESN"T have a problem why would WCE sack one of the best players going around?

the 2-3 years we would get out of cousins if he was ever a chance to join us would not be worth the lost sponsorship money, not to mention the detrimental effect it would have on the clubs culture.
cousins signing with us alone would not win us a flag, so focus on getting our group right and the results will come..geelong didnt have to sign any superstars at the end of last season to turn their fortunes around.
recruit kids, have a sterong pre-season and forget the cousind BS!!
