Harsh... rest of the season out..... but I suppose after the truth came out and them making Eddie McQuire, Mick Malthouse and the rest of the Collingwood Football Club look like such fools... they had it coming.

Yes, it was Fox Sports - I did notice they got the club wrong, but forgot to change it when I copied it across!

Maybe the journos at Fox have got used to putting Carlton when it comes to controversey, that they mistakenly did it again! Punk will feel vindicated now that it isn't always Collingwood!

Shaw's brother Rhyce has also been suspended for two matches and fined $5,000 for excessive drinking on Sunday night.

Wow, wonder what he actually got up to?

Finally, good to see a club get tough!


Shaw, Didak suspended for season
August 05, 2008 - Foxsports
HEATH Shaw and Alan Didak have been suspended by Collingwood Football Club for the remainder of the season.

Shaw was involved in a car acident and returned a blood alcohol level of 0.14 and was charged with drink driving.

Shaw initially told the club that Didak was not in the car at the time of the accident but new evidence has shown he was a passenger in the car.

The fine of $10,000 remains for Shaw and Didak has received a $5000 for his part in the incident.

Ryce Shaw has also been suspended for two weeks and fined $5000 for his part in the drinking session on Sunday night.

Mine too, both Shaw's, plus Milburn's suspension and Porplyzia's headache, i'm gonna go out in straight sets. C'mon boys stop drinking and think of the fans!!!!

[Psyber]

In both the Shannon Grant incident and the Collingwood boys, I would rather be in the parked car than the tipped portaloo.

What's the difference? Either way and you're in the 5hit.

And in either case some innocent bystander could have been in it too!

Collingwood is just a drunken rabble, thats why they can not win more than 2 games in a row due to the fact they are always planning their next piss up !!!!!!!!!!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

nothing- i'll just take it out on them...

[Thiele]

I guess that means the end of Collingwood

Well done to Collingwood for taking a real stance here.

Didak will,IMO be shown the door at the end of the year,many others agree?

[Adelaide Hawk]

Maybe in future the game will owe a debt to Heath Shaw and Alan Didak because with the profile and public humiliation these guy have had to endure, just maybe the message will finally get through to these brain dead footballers that they have expectations placed on them by society, clubs, sponsors, supporters, etc, and they are expected to conform.

I really don't think it is too much to ask of anyone signing a 6 figure contract to behave in a disciplined fashion, both on and off the field. I've said it before ... if these guys want to play football and go out drinking whenever they feel like it, then there are plenty of amatuer clubs out there who would be glad to have them.

The moment you decide to become an elite sportsman, you are expected to behave like one. There are some very good lads busting their guts in the SANFL who would kill for the opportunities given to Didak, and they must wonder what it's all about.

Staggers me how many self righteous pricks there are on this forum. I wish I'd lived a holier than thou existence many of you have though it must be nice to sit in judgement with such surety.

You'd think so mate, but someone could score themselves a real bargain here if as expected all clubs cling to their draft picks .. No there's no question he's a top shelf player.

But none of us on this forum are getting paid (at least) $150Gs a year to act with a bit of intelligence.

How convenient for you but I thought the primary purpose for their being well paid was their football ability. Money doesn't buy intellect or common sense and clearly they are just as vulnerable to indiscretions as you or I
