[quinny88]

WTF? is all i have to say.

what a flowering TOOL, forget fantasy the kid has a brihgt future with a lot of money to be earnt and not to mention invested in him by the club

Lets wait and see what actually happened first lol

[Ziplock]

I'm actually more devastated by connors in euros than martin- I can cover martin pretty easily with porplyzia, even if boyd, pendles and buddy are all out I should be able to field a full side :P

Sounds pretty normal for this year  :(

Severe sanctions will probably mean suspended for the rest of the year..

All good.. As long as the news gets out and we can all consider our next moves..

Two weeks for Matin means we hold him I guess..

[Danstar]

Hmmm might have the chance to keep Zaha and trade out martin instead

[Tominator]

Martin is only suspended for 2 weeks, and I'm not sure how far away Zaha is but when he first did the injury it was a 4-5 week diagnosis

[quinny88]

2 week freshen up for martin, will train like a madman and want to impress when he returns.
Im expecting some big scores when he returns

[devize]

Misses Melbourne and GC now. Damn, would have been good scores.

[CFC 1979]

listened to the Richmond pressa this arvo

what a snow job

Conners - 1 hr late for training after taking a sleeping tablet prescribed to him by the Richmond doc

Ric + Conners parted ways ( ie; your ass is sacked )

Martin - 1 hr late for training after drinking and taking non prescribed sleeping tablet

2 weeks off

Cameron - " we have high standards at Rich and conners has not met them"
Press - " Parting of ways is a bit harsh for being late after taking club prescribed pills "
Cameron - " he was on his last warning about behaviour"
Press - " so conners behaviour has been no good this year "
Cameron - " No he has been good all year "
Press - " did you ask the players if illicit drugs were involved "
Cameron - " Yes we did "
Press - " why did you ask that question "
Cameron - " we thought it important to our invesigation "

and Martin gets 2 weeks for being on the piss and popping pills someone else owns ?
and then to hold a pressa and not have Martin there to face the music ? Hows will minson feel about that

This does not add up. Yes conners was late but he has been very good both on and off the field this year
What Martin did is way more serious. He's been a loose cannon and is actually staying at the pressi's house
cause they can't control him.

This goes way deeper than what has been said, but we may never know.
Stinks of a cover-up for something bigger that Richmond don't want the AFL to know

[colmullet]

They also said Connors was on his last strike and this was Martins first misdemeanor so he copped 2 weeks for it, I don't see anything fishy in that
