He has been crossed of my list with a big red texta

It's apparent that Harley doesn't have the motivational skills and/or self-discipline it takes to...well...look after himself and stay
out of trouble.  One avenue the club could consider is to employ a full-time mentor to help keep Harley out of harm's way because, let's face it, it appears to be the case that Harley is, more often than not, his own worst enemy.  I've read that some American pro football and basketball teams sometimes employ full-time minders to help keep immature, trouble-prone players on the straight and narrow.

Well, someone to hold his hand will look good to players trying to get his spot

He's got to want to help himself though.
It obviously doesn't mean enough to him. He knows he makes bad decisions when he's out on the piss so why do it at all?
If the lure of a successful AFL career isn't enough to keep him from going out clubbing and drinking on a Sunday night then don't be an AFL player.

Except what does he do for money, self worth, etc etc.    I like the minder idea but not a job I would want to do.  He would probably smack me when I told him point blank to pull his fng head in and go home.
