North's statement

http://www.nmfc.com.au/news/2014-10-28/nmfc-statement

The North Melbourne Football Club can confirm that a member of its playing list is currently assisting South Australian Police in relation to an incident that is alleged to have occurred in South Australia earlier this month.

As this is a matter of ongoing police enquiry, no further comment will be made by the Club until it is in a position to do so.

When we actually find out what happened. If he admits to assault and theft, then yeah, show him the door.

really???

Wow... that's low. Doesnt seem like something an AFL player would do. Maybe retaliate if provoked. But this is just odd...

hahahahahaha you're joking right

Heuskes, Cousins, Daw (still under investigation), Milne, Jones, King (only consorting), Didak, Sylvia, Heath Shaw, Beams (wasn't charged), Kerr (wasn't charged, however, inferences can be drawn to his cocaine use by the trial of a known Perth dealer; there were roughly 8 other West Coke Eagles as well (Cox stated but didn't identify), Cappa, Carey, rumour pointing to Christensen, Jurrah et al.

I'm not impugning all AFL players integrity both legally & morally, far from it, but I don't think we should be surprised when the reckless minority do something wrong (just like almost every other high publicity profession). Remember the player is only under investigation, nothing conclusive until the magistrate's decree

There's a difference between recreational drug use and physically assaulting/stealing though.

You can take out the rumours/ongoing allegations for people like Daw, Milne, Christensen etc.

Shaw and Didak just got caught being idiots and Carey/Capper is taking it back a long way.

In modern era football, this sort of stuff is a lot rarer

If found guilty and first offence, and no prior poor behavior at the NMFC, then club imposed suspension.
