Well, he ain't no axe murderer and he's committed no crime. I'm sure every side has at least one shit bloke amongst them.

A decent defence their swoop. But it leaves out one thing: Stringer's teammates were not ok with his behaviour and the club now wants him out. So, either it's not as common as you suggest or there's more to the story.
Well done boys!

The gambling problems (?addiction) is quite concerning in many repsects. I'm just going to make my way to church and return home to my house of glass.

We were quick to rule him out and given our struggles up forward off suggest the club knew a bit.

An Ess friend of mine doesn't want his club to touch him.

There's a lot of baggage with this one.

I wonder whether the club still has a pretty good relationship with Beveridge, given his past employment.

I posted a week ago that taking him would be a huge GAMBLE. Now you know what I meant.

I really struggle with all these young women who know he has a fiance and kids, but still root him, take pics of it, and send them to his missus. To prove a point or something? :?

takes two to Tango. I'm not trying to justify his behaviour by any stretch, If I was a friend or family of his ex I'd happily beat shit out of him on pure principle, I just don't get the mindset of these women who'll willingly be a celebrity cumdump and brag about it.

I couldn't care less what he does off field, he is a great forward . Let's recruit him. I want Barry Hall as our assistant coach and would be happy getting some mongel back into our game plan .
I love this club and I hold anyone in contempt who does not think it is worth fighting for.

I would be really disappointed if we didn't have a good hard look at Stringer. He has serious potential, is young enough to grow up quickly and after the latest article would be going at fire sale price.

His issues aren't simply a result of immaturity, though. Addictions, etc. are not things you just grow out of.
Is our club really better able to help him than the Dogs?
