Ok, I'm not going to defend/accuse Farmer here, because I dont know the full story behind it at all. But from all accounts, he damaged a side-view mirror. Agreed it showed very poor judgement to have been out at all, especially that late, on the night Connolly resigned. One can only assume that his choice of nightspot had something to do with the Footy Show boys being in town.

Now, before any of you WCE supporters go mounting your high horses too early, take a look at the performances of some of your own team-members...he wasnt jumping up and down on the boot/roof of a taxi, abusing its driver in a fit of rage - and then being interviewed on a talkback radio station last week joking about the incident on-air. Mind you, the WCE offered no on-field penalty/game suspension there - just let it get played out in the courts and said "its been dealt with by the courts, not our business". Same goes for his assault charges resulting from a beating he helped dish out at a house party after one of the invited guests had a crack at his sister. Farmer has been charged, paid his fine, and going by the way the WCE deal with things, has paid his dues for his misdemeanor.

Also, with reference to another WCE who has supposedly "cleaned up his act", and has been given (and swore he would obey) orders by his club to cease his associations with certain "Northbridge identities"...who was he sitting with at the Danny Green fight the other night??

Until I see the video footage of exactly what happened in the Farmer incident (and considering its Burswood, there are cameras every 2m in that place, so it shouldnt be hard to produce) I have no faith in anything the WA media puts out as being anything less than totally biased towards whatever spin they're looking for on the day. A scuffle with the bouncers out the front could quite easily lead to a damaged side-view mirror of a parked car.

but farmer is the worst of the worst.

Miami
20-07-2007, 10:36 AM
He "beat up hs wife" (translation: slapped her in the face) cos she is an evil bitch, and came out and told him that his kids arent his ;) Frankly, I would slap a woman for that too, let alone some of the other stunts I know she's pulled on him. There are a whole heap of "cultural issues" at play when dealing with some issues like that - just ask Sampi.

"Kerr has anger management problems - lets move on" can just as easily be re-phrased with "Farmer has anger management problems - lets move on".

TJ - my point was, there were people early on the thread calling for him to go, be sacked as a player etc - I was just reminding some of them they ought to maybe look at their own teams first.

Where he WILL experience punishment from the club is drinking when he is on the injured list, and being out that late during the week.

If you want to wax lyrical on how elite sports stars in Australia get preferential treatment over the average Joe Blow, then go ahead - but that is an overall societal problem that is not just limited to Australia - and in no way is it limited to Farmer only.

And Ben - "Ben Cousins is mates with Kizon" - under the fairly strict renegotiated contract conditions he has been placed under by the club in order for him to return to AFL football, this was definitely a major issue. I'm not too sure they would have been impressed at all for him to have been so publicly visible fraternising with Kizon again at THIS WEEKS fight.

Being able to kick a ball, and being of Aboriginal decent does not excuse you from the law.

In my book as long as he doesn't

1. Do drugs like Cuz
2. Hang out with Northbridge identities like Cuz
3. Participate in drive-by shootings like Didak *edited*
4. Punching out kunts at parties; jumping on taxis and snapping off aerials like Dan the man
5. Pissy driving and crashing his Commodore like Gardner

the media should give the guy a break. Cousins is being welcomed back on Saturday like a farking hero for being a druggie and the Magpies havent done a fucking thing about Fevola.

Farmer's an angel compared to those guys. I went to Sydney a couple of weeks ago to watch the Dockers vs. Swans game and caught the same flight back as the Dockers. I spent quite some time talking to him, Hedland and Solomon; all are top blokes in my books :D

You mean Didak, not Fevola. Fevola just got pissed over in Ireland and beat up a few barstaff.

You also forgot Kerrs prescription forging, being tapped by police discussing drug use with a known drug-dealer , and blatantly punching a guy in the balls on field.

They're the #1 target in this state purely because of the number of ex-Eagles hacks who are working in the media. If you read the Melbourne-based media (Age, Herald Sun, etc) you will suddenly discover a slightly more balanced representation of views.

To those people calling for Farmers head over this, and particularly those who are Freo supporters, I say this - we took the moral high ground with both him and Tarrant already this season, and it has bit us in the ass and cost us games. From now on I say we follow the same professional practice as the rest of the clubs seem to support (particularly WCE and Collingwood) and leave what they do off the field to be dealt with off the field, and keep them playing/in the team as long as they are performing on the field.

Yep you're right, I meant Didak.

Concur with your other comments too about the ex-Eagles media hacks, and the manner in which the other clubs have dealt with player indescretions. There was an incident which occured last week involving an Eagles player that conveniently was ignored - shows the bias of the media in Perth. Seems the media use the 'threat of legal action' as an excuse not to follow up on what goes on.

The Dockers should deal with these indescretions the same way the other clubs have - sweep it under the carpet.

Shane, you once again defend him on grounds that dont work with me.

I dont really care for footy.

I dont really read the media with a biased view, and I dont watch the news or footy show etc to get biased.

I still believe hes had more then enough chances, and hes acting pretty poorly for a highly paid professional sports star.

Syncope
21-07-2007, 07:16 AM
Its funny how they acted so swiftly to give him a 6 week suspension at the start of the season right after all the Eagles problems to try and save their image, only a few weeks later to just realise how much they actually needed him during those times.

Miami
21-07-2007, 08:12 AM
TJ - I wont disagree he's acting pretty poorly.

However, the unfortunate thing is he has acted no less poorly than plenty of other AFL "stars" who are at least still playing, and/or are also still worshipped and exalted. And to say he's had plenty of chances - I disagree when you consider the number of chances several players from our other WA team have had regarding serious criminal offences.

In the cold hard light of day, Freo needs Jeff Farmer playing on-field.

Going out midweek when hes on the injured list on the night Connolly resigns shows a lack of judgement, agreed. Getting involved in a scuffle with the bouncers was regrettable, but not exactly an uncommon occurrence for the Cas. Ending up damaging the side-view mirror of a car was poor, as it involved an innocent member of the general public. You're right, he is a highly paid sports star - and is an easy target for people to take a shot at. His previous "high profile" indiscretion involved a scuffle with some bouncers in Northbridge - again, not exactly an uncommon thing, regularly see plenty of Joe Blows involved in the same.

TJ - you yourself have been involved in a "bar-room brawl" in recent times - now, you know the circumstances behind it, and why you were involved - but if you were an AFL footballer, that incident would have been all over the newspapers and the radio, twisted out of context and blown way out of proportion. (Dont even get me started on the WA media and their propensity for this when it suits them).

However, as far as AFL "star" indiscretions go - Farmer wasnt involved in the taking/distributing/acquiring thru forgery of illicit drugs, he wasnt involved in an act of violence against a member of the public where he beat them or wantonly damaged their car by jumping up and down on it, he wasnt associating with known bikies or with them at the time when shots were fired at the police - and in the instance of all of these incidents, no on-field penalty has been issued to those players by their respective clubs. He got involved in an altercation with the bouncers at Burswood, and has then damaged the side view mirror on a car in the carpark - which can easily be done by walking into it, being pushed into it, etc - hell, I've nearly snapped one off by walking into it in a Coles carpark.

All of Farmers indiscretions have come down purely to him being a hot-head, and easy to react to the continual crap I personally know he cops...not to mention the personal troubles he has been thru in recent times with his ex-wife. Yes, he is an angry man, and he has some issues. However, there is nothing devious, nothing deliberately deceitful, nothing arrogantly and insidiously blithe about his indiscretions...which is more than I can say for plenty of other AFL "stars".

Fevola was mentioned before, although mistakenly, but he is actually a good name to bring up - the only reason he was finally dropped a few weeks ago is due to his petulant on-field behavior where he spat the dummy - his off-field antics had been tolerated again and again.

Yes, they are highly paid professional SPORTSMEN - they are paid because they are good on the field with a footy, nothing more - it doesnt all of a sudden make them good people. There are plenty of highly paid people in other professions who are just as big wankers, or who have less scruples, who get away with not being plastered all over the news each time they play up because they are not afforded the instant and false sense of celebrity our society places on its elite sports people.

At the end of the day, Jeff Farmer is just a talented footballer who wants to be able to do his thing on the field, and then be able to go out and have a few brews after the game and have a life, and to play with his kids, in peace, without being the constant target of abuse/attention (such as a group of guys at the Cas having a go at him and telling him he was the reason Freos season went down the toilet and he was the reason Connolly was forced to resign). Nothing more.

Its not his fault our society has this obsession with its elite sports stars - but it is his fault that he hasnt learnt to deal with the public pressure better after all these years, and that he hasnt been able to show better judgement in where he goes to meet up with his mates from Melbourne when their in town for the Footy Show and have a few drinks to farewell his newly-resigned coach.

So fine him, renegotiate his contract to include a strict curfew, put him thru some anger management counselling, etc etc - but again I say, to all those calling for his head and for him to be dropped/sacked from playing AFL football, that in light of the precedents set by plenty of other AFL clubs about plenty of other AFL players - let his on-field actions and performance be the sole decider of his playing career, and his off-field issues be dealt with off-field.

BOSS 290
21-07-2007, 08:49 AM
The problem too is the way in which the Dockers board including Cameron Schwab and Rick Hart are quick to publicly lambast one of their best players (and the same can be said about the boards treatment of Connelly too, with Rick Harts lack of support for the coach being aired on television), rathan than backing their players (and coach) up.

Didn't see Eddie Everywhere giving Didak a spray in public and imposing immediate sanctions on him. Instead he's playing in the following match.

I think sometimes the decision the Freo board make are the worst decisions for the club. No one cares about players off-fied antics when teams win - look at the Eagles Premiership last year and their performance the year before. A drug-fuelled team, but nobody cares as long as they win!

cplagz
21-07-2007, 09:41 AM
Wow, what a read.

As much as I don't condone Farmer's behaviour he is a very talented player. He may over hype himself when he kicks a goal, but most of the time the goals he kicks are utter bullshit. In a competitive arena like that you have to be up yourself to an extent, and like anywhere, some are more then others.

I agree with BOSS 290's comment, the Freo players have a shitload of talent, but they don't have the off-field support a lot of them need. They are a young team, and a lot of their players struggle to cope with the pressures of being in the public eye, both on and off the field.

Time is the only factor they can use to form a solid side, look how long the Eagles took to get their side together and to a solid state where they played good competitive AFL. I don't envy professional sportspeople in the slightest, they sacrifices they have to make are more then many of us would even consider..... and before someone brings up the "they get paid big $ to make the sacrifices" argument, yes they DO get paid good $ but hell, money does not equal happiness, it can only assist in satisfying materialistic desires, which can lead to a pretty hollow existence if that's all you want.

IMO

Football players are some of the biggest role models for young kids/teenagers, the AFL and the clubs are far too soft and if they want to do something positive to stamp out drug use/criminal behaviour and violence once and for all then they need to take the hard line, pee tests after every single game, for every single player, and one strike and you are out, unless theres some sort of bs extenuating circumstances.
Then other players and the kids/teenagers who look up to them will realise that life isnt always about second chances, a lot of people are dead from bad drugs and they certainly didnt get a second chance.

AFL...harden the fck up :)

so your saying that they won the flags because of drugs,give me a break,then the same could be said for the carlton team of 95 or the bombers team of 2000,when they only lost 1 game,and those teams were two of the best of all time and of course the lions team in 01,02,03,regarded as the best ever!!!:werd:

Agreed, olympians are stripped of their medals if they are found to be junkies.

The Eagles should also be stripped of their premiership with so many players found taking drugs.



HOW MANY MORE HAVE TO BE EXPOSED BEFORE YOU SUSPEND THE WHOLE TEAM???


one-eyed supporters will have their head in the sand for years, no point arguing with idiots.

So 4 players from each of those teams were found to be using illicit drugs 1 year after their win?


You don't seem to grasp simple logic.

WTF,state the facts dude,3 players have tested positive to drugs that people know of and 27 in the last two years,that for legal reasons can not be named,if you dont like footy then it seems you are very bitter to the eagles,what have they done to you:werd:

how would crack have helped Cousins on the footy field? i dont see how he could have got any advantages out of it on the field, its not performance enhancing.

well id rather blame the culprit who is behind it in the first place, the media will always be well...the media, they are a whole problem on their own, but i blame the footballers who commit the crime in the first place.

How can you say something that will remove your appetite and give you greater endurance isn't performance enhancing?

Ask gurners at a club if they could dance all night without gear.... wonder why Cousins' so fit hey...
