Atmos Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 (edited) Gold Coast Suns riot act to Campbell Brown, Maverick Weller, Joel Wilkinson, Jacob Gillbee after brawl The Australian September 16, 2011 Four disgraced Gold Coast Suns players involved in a drunken brawl at a holiday resort in Thailand will be read the riot act by club officials. Seedy ... Campbell Brown in a police station in Koh Phanghan. The brawl erupted when a verbal argument escalated between Weller and another man, believed to be a member of the Australian defence forces on holiday from Perth. A friend of the unnamed Australian then allegedly hit Weller. Brown allegedly jumped to his teammate's defence and punched the second man, who was an off-duty Thai police officer. All four Suns players were taken into custody and transported back to the mainland. Brown, while seated with his hands tied behind him, was then allegedly hit by one of the police officers questioning him. read more Also report in ThaiRath here (Thai language) Edited September 16, 2011 by Atmos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atmos Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 Thai brawl puts Brown on shaky ground September 16, 2011 Campbell Brown's Gold Coast Suns leadership position is on shaky ground after being detained by Thai police with three AFL team-mates following a night of post-season revelry. The fledgling AFL club will investigate an alleged fight between Suns players, an off-duty policeman and an Australian tourist on the island of Ko Phangan where they attended a dusk-to-dawn beach party. Pictures of an unclothed and handcuffed Brown, Gold Coast's deputy vice-captain, came to embarrassing light for the Suns on Thursday. more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallaby Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 A fight broke out at the Full Moon Party? Shocker A bit more to it than that. These guys are pretty high profile footballers. Cambell Brown is anyway, and fodder for the gutter press in oz at the moment as the media are red hot on any footballer acting up. Easy to see what will happen though. A grilling by the football club after which the President of the club will give a media interview and state that after talking to the Thai police, who decided to lay charges, no further action is needed. Of course that could just mean that they paid a pretty penny for the whole thing to go away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atmos Posted September 19, 2011 Author Share Posted September 19, 2011 (edited) more from Austrlain news media Gold Coast Suns in Hangover recreation The Gold Cost Suns tried to ban Mad Monday, but that wasn't enough – several Suns players have been involved in an end-of-season incident in Thailand. Four players, Campbell Brown, Maverick Weller, Joel Wilkinson and Jacob Gillbee were arrested after an alleged fight with a local policeman. The club had announced two weeks ago that it had banned Mad Monday, with coach Guy McKenna telling the media that the practice had passed its use-by-date in modern professional AFL. "We're a footy club, not a social club," McKenna said at the time. "It's like the footy trips, these days I think they are a yesteryear thing about bonding. I think the best form of bonding is working hard together. "It aint a sacrifice, it's a choice. You choose to be a good person and a good footballer and you choose to work as hard as you can. It aint a sacrifice." source and an explanation of 'Mad Monday' referred to above, article from 4 September - the coach must be overjoyed at his players' behaviour Mad Monday ban for Gold Coast Suns September 04, 2011 THE Gold Coast Suns have banned Mad Monday and will conduct their end-of-season player reviews on the day traditionally reserved for alcohol-fuelled group bonding. Suns coach Guy McKenna decreed the traditional season-ending drinking session, held on the Monday after a club's final game of the year, would never get off the ground at the AFL's newest club. source Edited September 19, 2011 by Atmos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigC Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Whats a "grusge" match BigC ? Is it something the KPG lot are into? a "grusge" match comes from the acient latin word for " rumble in the jungle " but it has a double mean this acient word it can also be translated to " i made all this shit up " in some circomstances this word can but used when someone is trying to perfect the art of typing whilst under the influence of too many tablets. In this case the third was the more correct. maybe i should use a smell checker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
