NEWS Carrigan Boozing While Injured

[Mr Fourex]

But, if the rules are no alcohol whilst drinking,

Wait....wot??

 

[Kimlo]

Wait....wot??

Water only!

 

[Mr Fourex]

I went out drinking last night......

Geez Fourex...how many drinks did you have?

3 glasses of water.......

 

[Scorchie]

Wait....wot??

OOPS! Ha ha.

It was clear from the footage on the game and how he felt that it was highly probable, I'd say 95%+ likely, he'd done a ligament.

To say he "didnt know the extent" is a bit laughable, even from his biggest fan.

But, if the rules are no alcohol whilst injured, I guess the club expects players to follow them. In return for those rules, the club pays them eye watering salaries.

Equally, it's all laughable that this is even a thing and it even made the news. But, losing breeds people clicking on bad news and here we are.

Well how would he know the extent. The injury has to be scanned to see the severity of it. That's how it works. Just feeling his knee isnt going to tell you a thing. You are talking about an injury that can range from a couple of weeks out to a couple of months.

I’d be more inclined to check on carrigan’s mental welfare more than anything. It’s clearly out of character for him - maybe he was struggling mentally being injured again.

3 drinks isn’t drinking

Definitely. And eating 1 quarter pounder isn't junk food.

Boozy Bronco's is the title I've seen for both the Haas and Patty incidents in the Courier Mail, the Daily Mail, the Sun Herald and Fox Sports news.

You cant tell me there is no media agenda here.

It’s 3 beers

 

[Shane Tronc]

It’s 3 beers

Yeah but it was still team protocol to not do it

If there’s any need for a mental health check it would be because of how overbearing the public and team management are on these blokes…

I'd adhere to them if i was payed hundreds of thousands of dollars a year too though to be honest.

How about the players check on the mental health of us suffering fans, given the shit they've dished up the past few years? We must all be absolutely cooked in the head to still be supporting this shitshow of a club

Talking about an injury, that retired him early from the game. Even if it was Grade 1, it was clear it was an injury that would require some form of recovery.

Dont get me wrong, Patty is wonderful - it's just a media sensationalised ridiculous situation.

I reckon when you finish the game sitting on the side line wearing a club polo shirt and sunnies with your leg in a brace, you probably know yourself you're injured.

For the record, I don't begrudge the players having a beer, they should be allowed to do that. Your double standards though are hilarious. If this were Kotoni you'd be singing a completely different tune.

Poor guys.......
it wouldn't be so bad I s'pose.....if they got paid 100's of thousands of dollars...to play a game

wait a minute......

I'm pretty sure we're not the only team ... or the only sport that puts these restrictions on injured players

Some clubs players booze ban for the season more interested in success,cant remember which side it was last year.

Knocking one back in pattys honor
