Yep, there's a total lack of class and courage out there.OEP wrote:Typical of a lot of assaults today in that they hit the person from behind. A dog act.
Weak arse cowards hitting people from behind.
I hope Scott recovers well with no long term effects, and that the bastard who hit him enjoys his jail time.

Re: Scott Pendlebury assulted
Given the number of assaults occurring it should be mandatory for players to access proper security supplied by the club before they go out. Sounds severe I know but there are too many bogan heroes out there wanting to make a name for themselves - and we can't afford the risk of serious injuries to players and/or the exposure to court and publicity that these incidents always engender.Chinaman John M wrote:Certain players in the past have had their own 'minders' RRrocketronnie wrote:Maybe its time to think about a pool of bodyguards for our senior players to access - that might put a stop to this kind of malarkey...Collingwood 4 eternity wrote:http://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/newsfeatures/news/newsarticle/tabid/5586/newsid/88059/default.aspx
PS: I wonder how long before Didak's name gets mentioned in an article pertaining to this (not thats he's involved, just we know how the press carries on...)

I know for a fact some of the "big names" of the league have security with them every time they go to a venue.
For example, Buddy Franklin doesn't go anywhere without a "minder", while Gary Ablett apparently has his own bodyguard who travels with him to events and outings.
In this case it might have been a bit hard to have security for the boys though, as they were out of Melbourne and therefore the security would have had to have traveled with them.
The idiot who did this has to punished to the full extent of the law, time to set an example and send scum like this to jail, rather then giving suspended sentences and slaps on the wrists.
Oh, and the Herald Sun are acting with class again;

The blokes that do this sort of thing are gutless scum cowards. If I was a mate of the bloke I'd call him soft, and a weak prick for king hitting a bloke.
Dog act.
