Bernie Vince's Punishment

[Johno6]

if he skulled 2 beers then drove home = over the limit
if he drank 2 beers over 5 overs then drove home, shouldnt be a problem

[overloaded]

totally unproffesional a bit like Tex drinking at the footy last year. When will they learn?

the youth of today no respect

I think he said he skulled the most famous pint in Adelaide Media History at 1.30 and 1 more beer either before or after and drove home at 3.30

Why did he get fined? Because he "gave the Adelaide Football Club" a bad image?

Well im pretty sure the fallout from him actually getting the fine has done more to damage their brand...I for one think less of the Crows management after this.

Does Bernie Vince have any legal standing when it comes to being fined his wage without reasonable cause?

My work place couldnt fine me if i was to do this at any pub any time!

I know nothing about legalities!!!!

I agree the hireachy has done more damage to their image than what Bernie did.

I also think the way the Crows played last year did a lot more damage to their image as they were "pantsed" in quite a few games.

he is a public figure needs to learn to act like one

You mean like getting behind closed doors to act the goose? He was.

I'd be looking elsewhere if my employer treated me like that.

Professional sportsman who has a history of alcohol related incidents getting smashed in public on the eve of the season starting... if I played like him last year I would be off the piss training hard not dancing on a bar in my jocks - priorities

Oh please people give him a break!!! Bloody wowsers give me the irrates!!!!

AFC obviously expecting too much that their employees dont act like 5 year olds in front of what is basicly their client base.

Scoob, Im pretty sure if you went to the pub and did something like that, and your place of employment fined you for it, you would think it was stupid.

doing something like that at the pub or getting fined?... If I did that in front of my clients I would probably be sacked or my clients would seriously think about taking their business elsewhere... it wasnt as if he was banned for 8 weeks.

[tipper]

it was at a private function, in a closed bar. its not like he ran down the main street of the town in his boxers. he was not naked, he was not intoxicated (as far as we know) he didnt assault anyone, there was no public urination, nothing.

and so far there is only one "alledged" crows supporter that was offended. we dont even know if it was actually a crows supporter, and not a power supporter trying to cause trouble! this has been massivly blown out of proportion.

Its not like he did it at a Crows member function. And im sure we see more leg when hes playing footy, broadcast across Australia and the world.

[Johno6]

anyone know anyone that was there... coz i was told he was smashed.

so i wanna know if i was lied to or not

By clients you mean supporters, right?
So you're seriously saying that Crows supporters will stop supporting the club because Bernie was in his boxers?

Let's hope they can find 60 people to use the tickets.

60 tickets? That already eclipses Port Adelaide's average home crowd from 2011.

Maybe the crows should worry more about being racist then the Vince saga.

Pretty sure they said he drove home after?? Could be wrong but they say he wasnt smashed.

It is really dumb, these guys still need a life and the people who report these things seem to need one also!
